   LPN to RN with NO Hospital Clinicals

   Tim Parr replied to Tim Parr's topic in LPN-RN

   Navigating the world of Restricted License

   Tim Parr replied to NurseVE's topic in Recovery

   Long Term Care will accept you. My license in encumbered and most facilities say yes anyway. My problem is I can't get into an RN program. All the hospitals will refuse to let you take clinicals without a clean license. I would have to find a sch...
