Hi everyone. So, I've been a CNA for 3 years, and I also got my CMA license 1 year ago. I've worked as a CNA for the past 3 years. I'm starting a full-time LPN program in a couple weeks. The LPN program is just 8 months long, and it is very intense and busy. During the program, I don't want to work as a CNA. I just want to focus on school. Also, I received financial aid, and I don't have a financial need to work while in school. So, I don't want to work as a CNA during the LPN program. Also, I feel like it is unnecessary to work as a CNA during the LPN program because the LPN program has clinicals every week. So, is not working during the LPN program a good idea so that I can focus on school more and get better grades?

I'm applying to nursing school, and I have questions about the nursing physical exam. We are required to have a physical exam performed to apply for the nursing program. I never go to the doctor. I don't have a primary care physician, and I haven't gone to the doctor in 10 years because I've been in good health and didn't need a doctor. So, where can I have the physical exam done? Also, since I don't have a primary care physician, will that be a problem when I have the physical exam done? Do I need to find a primary care physician who can do the physical exam?
