    Dezy replied to PacoUSA's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Dezy replied to Dezy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have heard rumour that if you are in the BSN you can not become licensed as a LPN. I don't really understand why... the course I think is supposed to be more extensive anyway. However I have heard...
