Hello, I am from Ontario, Canada and understand that we use the term RPN but everyone else uses the term LPN. Anyways, I have been an RPN for 7 years, graduated 2002. I was the last year to take the course as a certificate vs the diploma it is now offered as. Graduated highschool in 2000, so again under the old cirrculum. I now am thinking of going back to do my RN and finding out that its a challenge and when i contact the schools I dont get return calls or emails. I know that I can bridge from RPN cert to diploma then bridge again from RPN diploma to Bscn, which is going to be five years of school. With the Rn program only being 4 I might as well start at the very beginning. Has anyone done what I am attempting to do recently? If so what courses did you need to get into the RN program. Where do I get these courses? I know I need to update some of my sciences and maybe maths, but any where I look for classes the course outline tells me that the course is not accecptable to get into the Rn program. Someone please help point me in the right direction!!!!!
