Hi I have wanted to apply to veeb but I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to get a job in a hospital after. People have said they are facing out LPN’s. I can apply to Nassau for the RN program but I know it is hard to get in and will take a long time before I can start working. I am an older student (42) and have 3 kids. I just don’t want to make a bad decision and waste time and money. There is an entrance exam for veeb on June 26. I think that is probably the last one for the year. I need a good job when I am done too to pay back the student loan. Any advice woul$ be greatly appreciated:)

Hospitals are harder for lpn, but they always need them in nursing homes, and private care. You’ll get a decent job after, just gotta work harder if you want to work in a hospital.... Good luck!

I agree! There are plenty of jobs for LPN's in other types of facilities. You can always start out as an LPN and do a bridge program

I’m tAking the exam on the 26th. I plan to apply to Nassau program after verbs as they have an advanced lpn to rn program. Also Malloy has an lpn to rn program. Chamberlain does as well so those are my three options after Veebs. I have a young daughter so I completely understand with having to make enough money. One of my friend graduated last year and she works for a city hospital .
