Hi, I'm around the Baton Rouge area and will be starting school in August. I'm as nervous as one can be, this is a career change for me at 31. Can anyone give me a close apx. of what LPN pay is around the B.R. area? I'm just curious to know what I'm getting into. I've always been interested in nursing but was pushed towards a different career choice when I was younger. I would like to go for RN eventually, but I hope this will get me started. I hope to be around here some.
