My daughter is looking for an online LPN/LVN program. Does anyone know of such a program?

There is no such thing as an online LPN program. All US BoN require in person clinical and skills labs for entry to practice nursing programs (RN or LPN). There are a few hybrid programs where theory is online but must report to the school for skills lab and assigned facility for clinical rotations. You would need to travel to the area where the school is to attend clinical.

There is an online LPN program in Edmonton, Alberta. But you do have to go there for the labs and practicums. It is NorQuest College.
That would be a hybrid program. There are a select few in the US, one in Oregon but you must be local for lab & clinical.

I was about to say "I really wouldn't want an Online Nurse to take care of me or my family". I think we have to always put ourselves in our soon to patient's/resident's shoes.
