   RN from PH LVN route question

   abbyrenalRN posted a topic in Registration

   Hello there! I am a PH graduate applying for NCLEX-RN here in CA... with the well-known concurrency issue I am now considering LVN-route... I have read a post which says if you go on LVN-route you go directly to LVN-RN bridge program to be an RN??? Please enlighten me.. If I will receive an update from CA-BON that I have to take for example OB class, can I take that OB class even I am an LVN?? given my degree and credentials (hoping its valid), I thought I can take the class then apply for NCLEX-RN again... or I really need to go to LVN-RN bridge program to be an RN, making the deficiency irrelevant??? If I choose the LVN route?? Im so confused... My plan is to be a LVN while I study my deficiency class... Please help me decide and acquire additional information to better prepare... thanks

   Mabuhay! Im studying masteral of arts in nursing and my LAST requirement is to finish a Thesis in line with nursing Criteria: 1. must be quasi-experimental 2. use behavioral or cognitive interventions (ex. Music therapy, patient education therapy, video-games as divertion activity.....) 3. must be a nurse-independent intervention (yoga therapy or massage therapy are not advised since i need to finish training on those to be allowed to conduct the study) im a hemodialysis nurse and i would like to focus my study on their needs which are ways to: *decrease pain on venipuncture *improve quality of life *health education on disease process *intervention that can be done on intradialysis period If you have suggestions i would appreciate it. i will post updates about my study :) Godbless you all
