Wow! Just wow. NB needs to get with the times.

This is a poster that NBNU is currently circulating in New Brunswick in response to a recent increase of LPNs on the hospital units there.

It's disgusting how LPNs are disrespected in New Brunswick and constantly kept down and not allowed to practice to full scope ( not even half scope). This province really needs to get with the times and look at how well LPNs are working as a professional part of the healthcare team in the rest of the country. I really find this sickening.

But why are you comparing the shortest RN program with the longest RPN programs?

When I was in school, in 1993 RPN program was 8 months.

But I can't pick and choose the stats and compare an eight month RPN program with a four year RN degree. Why are you doing that?
