Everyone, all though those working in public health would be beneficial because I may end up in public health anyways

you didnt have to have any additional certifications for this position

:DMy question is simple, How many nurses are in the non-profit sector and what position do you hold.

Ok, well thats good. I am just glad you did your homework as far as credits and transfers go. I had a friend who thought her tech school credits would transfer to a regular college. I wish you luck.

Wow chick, congrats...Also thank you for giving me a little hope and encouragement to try and do the same thing next semester. Those are the only two prerequisite classes I need before I can start the nursing program. Hail to the Queen :bowingpur LOL!!!

i hope i am not too late, but is there an accelerated program in one of the colleges near you. i am in the same boat as you and i am now beginning to start a nursing program soon (after i finish my prerequisites). i plan on getting into the accelerated program in a college near me. what state do you live in and i will look up a program for you and post it to this site. cause paying $25k up front seems a bit much. but if you want to continue after you get a lpn degree from a tech school the credits will not transfer. now i am not sure about a community college i guess it depends on the school and their accreditation. finding the right school is hard, just make sure you do all of the research you could possibly do before you decide on a school or program. i would hate for you to get a degree that will have you stuck or have you starting from scratch just to get to the next level. good luck:yeah:

It is wonderful to see so many people that have the same interests as me. Right now i need guidence, so that I wont make the same mistakes I made while obtaining a biology degree I dont use. Now I am researching a new career path and came across Public Health Nursing. My sister and my best friend are both nurses and they always brag about how rewarding it is. Now I didnt choose nursing based on what they said alone, I had to do research and make sure this is something i could do for the rest of my life. So anyone who is already a Public Health Nurse should really respond to guide those of us who are pursuing the degree. Let us know what to avoid or what internships to pursue or whats out there that we should be aware of.:loveya:
