LPN - What classes do you take?

Published

I am just wondering what classes you start with for the LPN. Is it A and P? What other classes do you take

I start my LPN program in September. I know for the first semester we have A&P 1 and Nursing Fundamentals. My school is 4 semesters long... we also take Pharmacology, Adult Nursing, A&P 2, etc, etc.

Specializes in Geriatrics, Med/Surg, hospice.

for my program the prereqs we had to take were A&P, Pharmacology, and Medical Terminology. There was also an optional Microbiology class we could take (it counts for the RN program too and I'm bridging as soon as I finish my last RN pre req) and I took that as well.

My old college only required A&P and taking and passing (with a highish grade) an entrance test.

It really depends on the college you attend
