I am considering doing one of the bridge programs that you can do from home and am wondering if any of them are better than others. Please let me know if you have gone through one of these programs.
I have not personally gone through one, but I have worked with people and given career advice to those that are interested. I would be very wary of a "do from home" program. If you currently work for a nursing home or hospital, many will help you pay for a real program at a real school. I would recommend this route. I even know some employers that will pay it entirely for a commitment to work there for 6 months to 2 years, depending on the employer. Make sure you check around before you do it. On the positive side, this is a GREAT career move. You'll make more money. It's also almost always the case that a two year RN program graduate (it will take you less than that) makes just as much money as an RN with a 4 year degree. Congratulations on this decision. It's a good one. i looked into this program, i am an lpn and i was told if i wanted to move to another state my rn lic. would not be good there! i was discouraged by the community college not to do it! so look into it carefully!!! glendale community college in california
