Hey Everyone, I am in my first semester of Nursing school, and I was just wondering if you could take the NCLEX-PN once you get to a certain point? That way I could work as an LPN while finishing school. I know at my school that the LPN program, which is 3 semesters, equals the first 2 of the RN program. So I was just wondering if you could do that. If anyone knows please get back to me because I would really love to find out!

I would suggest finding more assessment data. You form the Dx based off of the assessment data, not the other way around. So think about what's going on. What have you noticed? Have you inspected the client? Any skin breakdown upon head-to-toe assessment? Think of subjective and objective data. Are they in any pain?

Thank you so much, notgivingup1! I really do appreciate it!
