I was out of nursing for 10 years, recently returned as an RN volunteer. Before I go back full time, I plan to participate in the local community college's (St. Petersburg College) return to work for RN's program (the program offers 2 courses: one for nurses who are having trouble with nclex and one for nurses who have been out of the work force). The course consists of 120 hours computer class work and 96 hours of clinical. It costs around $800. As a warning, I paid for and completed Sigma Theta Tau's online return to work, then spoke to a recruiter who kindly suggested that clinical work is a necessary component of a return to work program. Hope this helps and I did this correctly, it's my first post. Good luck.
