Hello Everyone!My name is Lela, I'm new to the site, and I am very interested in the ADN programs. However, I am very limited on my options (transportation, pregnancy, etc.). I have been searching and searching and came across Deaconess(DCN ONLINE). It offers a web-based only program with the option of getting LPN and continuing on for ADN. On the other hand, I am just wondering if anyone has any experience with it and if it's legitimate. Thank you in advance! I will appreciate any advice or comments!Lela

To the best of my knowledge, Deaconess was the only nursing school that had an online LPN program. If you should find a program, please post the info, as many are interested in distance programs.
