I ran into this web site today www.LNCSTAT.com or www.LNInstitute.com 1-866-849-2562.

Has anyone heard of LPN as a LNC(legal Nurse consultant) if so please share.

Practicing as an LNC is in the RN scope of practice only. LPN practicing as an LNC is out of the SOP per any NPA in any state:

I realize the above entity (LNC Stat) talks about how their ALNC education can benefit the LPN and I'm sure it can, but to practice as LNC is out of LPN SOP.

The interested LPN might consider completing a paralegal course if this indeed is wthe type of career that they are considering..

Just my two cents...
