    LA♥Nurse replied to hollyberryh20's topic in Online Distance Learning

  11. Excelsior LVN to RN program - any TEXAS grads????

    LA♥Nurse replied to jenniferhill1983's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Plano CPNE site is not being used anymore. I think the only site still being used in Texas is in Lubbock. If you do choose to go through Excelsior, you will probably need to take A&P and...

    LA♥Nurse replied to lsilva7's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I used college network module, my nursing foundations from LPN school, and Sanders NCLEX-RN

  13. Excelsior College which 1st Health Safety or Transition

    LA♥Nurse replied to lsilva7's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I would say H&S. It is more interesting, esp for the first test. Transitions is a bit boring - history, laws, surveys, nursing theories, ect. But that's up to you. They do not "build" on each...

    LA♥Nurse replied to lsilva7's topic in Online Distance Learning

  17. EC Health Safety-- thoughts on the course??

    LA♥Nurse replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I took health & safety last week(Jan 21st)...I studied about a month, and got an "A" :) - If your already lpn, it will basically be a review. Most questions are just common sense questions imo....

    LA♥Nurse replied to dslpninla's topic in Online Distance Learning
