You have to prepare 11 months for the LPN program

Question

If you could go back to 11 months before you came to school, what would you do to get ready to experience easier?

I started studying A & P and I “m up to the skeletal system. I am now realizing some of the terminology, which makes it a little easier to understand.

So … what should I do with the next steps? I feel like I learn what I could and not let pass a day without the need to learn. And by the way, all nursing topics are included with the program, we take no prereqs, such as A & P, medical terminology, etc.

No LPN bridge program

Question

I have to go to classes in Blackhawk College, Moline, IL and the program as an LPN. I am an LPN that worked in acute care has not blown in the last 5 years and at my own horn, but I’ve won a lot of interesting work there.

Of course, I’m all done with my pre-requistes, and to end the bridge their program. So I would start with the first semester nursing students. They say they can do it again, but she had too many LPNs that would not even have their license and turn into the bridge program and fall back.

I must say that I am offended that 6 years as a LPN is worth nothing when they return to school. Grrr. Do I have to wait another year and see if it again? Or of the first semester learning to take blood pressure and give baths start – yes, bathrooms, because they do not require CNA course as a pre-requiste

LPN to RN in Tampa FL

Question

I was bombing of A & P at HCC and I am afraid to try it again. If started in an RN school depends on a GPA, should I just bag it? I swear, I can not memorize or learn, as I used to be. I’m 44th I accept and pass the math and English all the requirements. Got A and B on the classes but the science is very, very hard for me.
I hear there are waiting lists for RN programs here and if you have less than a 3.0 or higher, you will be forever to get in. Or Never.

Any suggestions? Maybe I’ve just had the wrong anatomy teacher?

Question

I’m currently thinking applied to Galen in St Pete’s LPN RN program. I was curious if anyone out there to visit or go right now.
