No at the college i attend if you get your associates in applied science majoring in medical assisting and continue on then the next step would be a bachelors in healthcare administration

Well since you mentioned the accelerated RN option, the college where I am pursing my bachelors just started a nursing program that will take 15 months instead a full two years, so it might be possible that some of my credits could transfer over to that program

Oh let me clear it up. If I go to school for just primary nursing it would be an associates degree. if I continue where I left off with medical assisting and continue with that aspect I would earn a bachelors degree in healthcare administration. So i guess what Im asking is would an associates degree in nursing be good or would it be more beneficial to just obtain my bachelors degree ?

hello This is a question for everyone on here since every one has experience on the healthcare field. I am currently a non-working licensed CNA. By non-working I mean that I am not in the healthcare field at this time. Before acquiring my CNA license i was in school for medical assisting. During the time off from school after getting my license I began to realize that I need to stay in school while Im still in the habit. I began to contemplate going to school for some form of nursing either LPN or RN but at the same time if I was to continue where I left off with medical assisitng it would only take me 1 year to get my bachelors in healthcare administration. So my question is whats the better choice, going on to get my bachelors which could potentially turn into my masters or finish off where my CNA license has left me?

Hello Im new to this board and currently I have my CNA license even though I am not currently working in the healthcare field I was looking to continue my education. I was talking to someone a while ago and I informed thme that I wanted take an LPN class and they told me that LPNs were gonna be phased out in the next couple of years and facilities would only continue to hire RNs. I didnt really believe her until I spoke to another one of my friends who is in nursing school to get her RN and she told me the same thing. Is there any truth to this, because why continue to offer the LPN programs if there going to be phased out?
