  3. When will ADNs be "phased out"

    WCSU1987 replied to lightshesaid's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I think they will never for good reason, demand. I mean RNS with ADN/ASN will probably be phased out of the Hospital. However, the State I live in the market has changed. LPNs are surging again. Odd,...
