Yes, community college may be my best option for sure!

That's why I am still searching. I do love what I am doing now and don't want to just quit.

Brr is right ha ha

Thank you!

Thanks! That's what I was thinking too. Do you happen to know how much direct care is required? I really don't want to quit my job and go do that full-time but could if only a few hours a week.

I know they require a face to face clinical component but just to clarify, I don't think I can get in now because I do not do hands on as I am a utilization review nurse now. I haven't done hands on for 3 years.

Just to clarify, I know they all require clinical component but what I meant is I am a utilization review nurse (full time) and Excelsior seems to have an issue with that because it's not hands on nursing currently.

That is strange! No background check for nursing LOL

Thanks! I know I have found some for BSN but gearing more toward ASN at this time. I will check those out though as it's something to think about! :)

Was looking into an online LPN to RN program. I thought about Excelsior but they require hands on nursing that is recent and because I do Utilization Review I am not currently doing hands on nursing. Any recommendations? Thanks!
