Male Student Starting LPN Wednesday

Published

Looks like all the LPN classes are starting within a week of each other. I'm a 43 yr old male starting next Wednesday. Looking forward to getting the ball rolling. Worked as a Certified Surgical Tech in the US Navy for 6 years and 2 years in the civilian sector. Looking at going to RN school after LPN and then to persue Certification in First Assisting. Once you've been in the OR is is so hard to leave.

Just want to say GOOD LUCK to all those who are starting their new careers and following their dreams.

If anybody has any tips/tricks for a new LPN students, let me know.

Hi To All,

I am new on board starting LVN education-training and have a question regarding online cpr certification and its acceptance by different community organizations. Friend of mine is saying that online cpr classes are accepted by most as he took class from ncprc.com, other friend is suggesting that hands-on is preferable over online cpr. Even though I have taken it before do you suggest online recertification is sufficient.

Thanks
