Hello everyone :)
I am looking to get into an LPN Program, I currently live in Frankfort, KY.
What are my school options, I know Lexington Community College has an LPN program.
What other LPN schools are there near my area? I am willing to commute 30-45min..
Thanks.
Bryan :)

If you have good enough grades, why not go for the KCTCS ADN program in Lawrenceburg? It is through the Lexington campus, but classes are held evenings and weekends in Lawrenceburg. I would have so gone for this program instead of the Lexington one, but I live in Lexington and didn't want to drive to Lawrenceburg.
Evening and weekend classes would be perfect for me since I work M-F 7am-3pm.. but I dont know if i wanna go for ADN/RN right now, I've been out of school for 2 years. I wish they offered the LPN program in Lawrenceburg.
You are going to have an easier time finding a job as an RN versus an LPN and higher pay. The BCTC nursing program has several non-traditional students, especially at Lawrenceburg. I am 30 years old and graduated in 2006 originally.
Did you go to school at Lawrenceburg campus?
I wanted to be an RN orginally but right now, I just want to get in and get out of Nursing school.. My plan at the moment is to become an LPN then work + school to become an RN, I know the RN course is just 1 semester more but I dont really care.. I just want to finish something. My wife is a BSN graduate, She is currently reviewing for her NCLEX exam. thanks for all the info!
I am going to the Cooper Campus since I live and work in Lexington.
