JUST A FYI.........That option is NO LONGER AVAILABLE to RN students in NY.

The excelsior site has list of colleges that accept their credits--which is many.

LPN's in New York State do not have assessment privileges; they may not interpret patient clinical data or act independently on such data; they may not triage; they may not create, initiate, or alter nursing care goals or establish nursing care plans.

Inappropriate use of LPNs may expose agencies to potential litigation, the delegating RN to a potential charge of unprofessional conduct for inappropriate delegation of professional responsibilities [see Regent Rules 29.1(b)(10)], and the LPN to a charge of acting outside the scope of nursing as a Licensed Practical Nurse [see Regents Rules 29.1(b)(9)].

The NYSOP gives your license and determine what you can and cannot do, not the RN or the facility. No RN cosignings or check-offs . OP gives your license and will take it away for violations. The site and # are available so, not knowing is not an acceptable excuse to the board. please keep up with the changes

WHEN I FIRST STARTED HOME CARE, 1 YEAR OF MED-SURG WAS REQUIRED:twocents:

CONGRATS ON CROSSING OVER:yeah:

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT---EMPLOYERS ARE BECOMING VERY PARTICULAR ABOUT CREDENTIALS****ASN AND BSN HAVE THE SAME RN LICENSE, YET THEY CAN REFUSE THE ASN. THEY CAN REQUIRE THAT YOU'RE A GRADUATE OF AN ACCREDITED PROGRAM. THERE ARE LPN'S (FORMER RN STUDENTS) THAT WERE REMOVED FROM THE NURSING DEPT. AND PLACED IN CENTRAL SUPPLY/ HOUSEKEEPING BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT PROVE THAT THEY COMPLETED ANY PROGRAM-NO DIPLOMA--THEY WENT BACK TO SCHOOL AND ARE RN'S NOW BUT WHO WANTS TO GO THROUGH THAT? THE NEW REQUIREMENT BY NYS WILL PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING TO FUTURE NURSES. A FRIEND OF MY WENT ON AN INTERVIEW AT A NY HOSPITAL AND THE RECRUITER WANTED TO SEE HER LICENSE, DIPLOMA, TRANSCRIPT (GPA), 2 LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION FROM THE COLLEGE SHE ATTENDED. THE RECRUITER WENT THROUGH THE TRANSCRIPT AND POINTED OUT THAT SHE DIDN'T DO GREAT JOB WITH ENG. COMP (HER 1ST COLLEGE COURSE) EMPLOYERS ARE DIGGING DEEP-LVN/LPN/RN PLEASE COMPLETE AN ACCREDITED PROGRAM
