I am in Triton's RN program, It is tough but fair. As far as the LPN program they have informationals almost monthly you should contact the school for more information. Also You live in Humboldt, have yu considered Wright College they have an excelent LPN program and it is available to take in the evening. but you still need the pre reqs regardles. best of luck to you and feel free to message me if you have any inquiries.

In illinois one would have to provide proof of licensure or group affiliation before one would be allowed to get a special placte.

With more people insured there will definitely be a need for more nurses; however Hospitals are no longer places of healthcare and well being but places of business that must turn a profit in order for share holders to be happy. Healthy patients are no longer the goal of most hospitals now they just want happy clients. It will be a minute. I believe it will only take one major lawsuit against a hospital on negligence to be won by a former patient to kick the smart owners into gear. SN: There needs to be a cesation of hospitals trying to find the cheapest labor possible.

I start August 26th, Promoting Adaptation I & II here we go!

Sounds kinda fishy. Work for us in an clinical support manner..., six to nine months with a chance to be hired on permanently, oh and come to the job fair and enter to win a free tablet. the job description itsself sounds like you wont be getting any nursing experience at all in that time either.

Ask (rhetorically) dont divuldge your name just in case the inquiry attempts to bite you in the toucas. But the more I read the more I realize even after graduation it may be a minute before I even get an interview. So take the job.

more than likely if the school you are entering is not accredited. Check with the programs you are interested in to see if they take credit from where you are considering going.

take the job get more experience, hopefully reducing the HR excuse of not enough experience from being used.

You must be drinking the All Nurses brew...

Hi All, I just recieved the list of the books "needed" for the first two classes Im listing them here and would like some input as to which are truly needed and which are just add ons to make Nursing school even more expensive.

it's a good thing when you can tell the ones who wanted you to fail to shove it...not sure they were that bad but still; employees who work to improve should be offered the opportunity to move up where they began.

I said half cafe not Half calf!

Hi, I am also in the west suburbs. Two programs that I know of for sure that have online curriculums are Olivet Nazarene Nursing Schools in Illinois, Masters in Nursing Degree | Olivet Nazarene University, and Chamberlain Nursing School, Earn a Nursing Degree Online or On-site | Chamberlain. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2007 and now am beginning an ASN-RN program at Triton College in Melrose park. I was accepted to Olivet however the pricetag was to steep. I decided on taking the community college route as it is much more affordable to earn RN certification. I will enter a BSN completion program afterwards at a savings. You should begin a dialogue with different counselors to see which program might be best for you. If you decide to go the ASN route then there is College of Dupage http://www.cod.edu/programs/nursing/index.aspx, Morton College http://www.morton.edu/academics/aas.asp?nav_id=a4_1, and Triton College http://www.triton.edu/Home/ . Just to name a few.

Ms. Pot meet Mr. Kettle... You began as an ASN/ADN and yet you want BSN to be the entry? By your logic a becoming the likes of a Plumber, Electrician, Locksmith etc should also require a Bachelors minimum in order to be considered "professional".

no they are not. They'll be professionals when what they do contribute to the betterment of society as a whole.
