I just enrolled in RUE.  It was $200 down and $142 a month which I find very affordable.  I haven't received any books yet, but the courses you have to take all seemed reasonable i. e. no world religion on the list.  Hope this helps.  I have been an LPN for 20 years.   Thinking there will be some of them I can ...

100% agree. . . they aren't teaching them much these days.  Maybe how to sign their name and look pretty:))

Currently after many, many years in the hospital (see other posts) I am doing home health.  It is a company with several offices all of which are in rural areas.  In my office, there are 4 RN's, 2 clerical staff, 2 CNA's and me.  I am the lone LPN.  They treat me like frickin gold.  Each and every one of them.  But ...

It would be good, but the RN's aren't going to allow it.  I have heard too many times. . .'I had to pay for my education'  . . . all about money??

Your resume looks like mine!  But it won't happen in our lifetime!  It's all good though. . .I will still take care of the ones I am assigned to :) 

When I graduated in 1986 they were saying they were going to weed out LPN's. . . I am still here and making more than the new RN grads because of pay for experience.  The only thing I am sick of is hearing how they are 'gonna weed us out'. 

Agree 100%
