LPNs in CT...

Okay, so I'm qualified to answer your question, I'm just super confused by your post for some reason.

1. What are you currently doing in the hospital for $20/h?

I got the impression you were working as an LPN and wanted to be an RN and possibly a BSN, but you also make it sound like you're applying to a nursing program for the first time and maybe trying to GET your LPN?

Also when you say CC's program, does CC mean Capital Community, Central Connecticut, Connecticut College, Community College? Or something entirely different that I'm unfamiliar with?

CC = Community College and Howdy! Applied for the second time to the Community College program. Wife and I both did. Depending how thing's go...If we both get in awesome...If wife awesome and I do awesome. If we don't then was thinking of applying to an LPN program and then look into a State job then go for my BSN on the side.

I mean wife and I were thinking of wife gets in to a CC program. Then a year later wife graduates. I go to LPN School. Then after 18 months later apply to an RN program do a year of LPN to RN bridge. Then we both do an RN to BSN bridge together.

Only one I can find is Stone and be an expensive route.

I graduated from the CT community college ADN program. As far as I know, all the sites are the same as the one I went to in that they are actually not evening programs. You can take all the prerequisites as evening classes, and that is prior to being accepted to the actual nursing program. But as far as I know there is no evening classroom option for the actual nursing program. The classroom portion was something like 830am to 230pm one day a week, the actual day was different every semester and they dictated it, and then you have two clinical shifts a week, which there was some evening options for that. Sometimes clinical days were replaced by lab simulation days, which again was during the day. I ended up taking per diem work during nursing school in order to accomodate that classroom day. Basically each school has a system, like first semester students use the classroom Tuesdays, second semester students thursdays, etc and I couldn't find another job that accomodated needing a different day off every semester. In answer to the other question, I work for a hospital system VNA that employs a lot of LPNs and offers good benefits, not sure what they get paid though as I never asked them.

Also the community college program has LPN to RN bridge that is quite affordable, I believe it involved a 4 or 6 week clinical rotation and then you join the ADN class for the last two semesters of their program to get the RN.

Have a question figure correlates to this topic I l posted.

Is there any strictly evening RN programs left in the State outside of Goodwin? Goodwin is just out of my budget. Prefer a evening flexible nursing program. Know lots of other States offer them even just weekend nursing programs. Could find nothing in CT. Figure can do the LPN route be wicked expensive little over $30 thousand dollars. Found out with work it's either reimbursement or loans can't do both. So I could try to pay out of pocket for 24 month's that be about $840 a month or apply for financial aid. Then move to a State that has an LPN to BSN bridge like Florida, Mass, or Texas.

You asked if there is work for LPNs in Connecticut , I know of 3 home health aid companies that hire LPNs , and I've seen LPNs working in Connecticut on my job one of my friends is an LPN and he works in the Greenwich hospital .
