RN refresher course info for Central Florida RN

I have recently moved to Florida, and am going back into nursing after a thirteen year "respite". I want to take a refresher course before heading back into the work force, but am unable to find one anywhere! Find this so hard to believe, since there is a "shortage" out there! I live in Leesburg, which is 50 miles northwest of Orlando, but can't find anything there, either! Please let me know if you have any advice or info! Thanks so much!

Most of the community colleges offer a nurse refresher program. You should check out Florida Hospital as it is one of the largest hosptial systems in Orlando and the surrounding area. I am sure you will find some great opportunities with them. But I would start with the colleges for a refresher program. Good luck!
