just my 2 cents I am an RN, went straight through the RN program at phoenix college, home health sounds very enticing, however in my experience, it is not all that it is cracked up to be, and LPN's, unfortunetly are being fazed out, everywhere, even in a lot of nursing homes, if you are a new LPN you will be competing against a lot of very experienced LPN's, my suggesting is to stick it out and get your RN

I took all of my pre-reqs through Rio online and am now in the Nursing program at PC, I am finishing up block 1, I will say that if you find the Rio A&P and Micro difficult, then you havent seen anything yet, because the A&P and Micro were cake compared to Nursing school, I am pulling A's in Pharm and Process, but it is very difficult, like a whirlwind, you have to learn and absorb as much info in 1 week as in a month of any other class that I have taken before. It is difficult but if you are truly dedicated you can manage. Good luck to you! Ryan
