I do hold a BS from in Organiization Communication

Thanks so much for the responses. Let me clear one part up we arent going "together" well be going at seperate times, I will go first as she covers health insurance. Most of you are saying to skip the LPN program an go straight RN. It was my understanding its easier to get to the RN role if you already have your LPN. I didnt add that we have one child, so life must go on as ususal with school and everything else. She is only 8 so that could be good or bad.LOL. Please do keep sharing as I need to follow the right path. If there is anyone inthe Tampa Bay area with real local info. Join in !

Long story short, I have had a lucrative career as a recruiter, but things have changed and both my wife and myself are going to go to LPN nursing school at a local votech. My ultimate goal is to take the LPN to RN Bridge at a Community college then start working and going on for an advanced nursing dehree. ( I got my first degree in 1993 in Organizational Communications ) Here in Tampa all the schools have a wait except for the local vo-tech. What are your views on this program and is the "plan" that I have layed out sensible ? I figure before I am 42 I could be a PA-C or ARNP. I would love any and all feedback. I have atteneded orientation and school is supposed to start in August. I am ready to get into a field that I would enjoy and isnt all about the money ! I know that sounds crazy to most, but I have learned that money isnt everything in life.... Thank you in advance for any answers / comments or questions.
