Alexandra M. S.’s Answer

To become a nurse, you need to earn a license. There are two kinds of nursing licenses:

LPN - licensed practical nurse

RN - registered nurse

The license takes 1-3 years to earn in college. Then you are a nurse and can work at a hospital, in a clinic, or patient homes.

Alice’s Answer

The first step is to get information from the vocational / technical schools ( for CNA/LPN) and colleges (RN) you are interested in . If possible , make an appt with one their counselors . You will also need to check if there is someone available to assist you with financial aid planning. When you call or go by , have a list of these questions. ( That helps me).

Anna’s Answer

Hello,

Research nursing programs near you and figure out what type of nursing do you want to be.

Once you have that idea of either an RN or LPN, you can research programs and requirements to get into those programs.

Gain experience in the industry such as being a CNA or a medical scribe to help you get hands on experience with patients.

Find a program that fits your financial status as well as goals in the program!
