LPN is the quickest way in. RN is better.  by the way i do know what i'm talking about, i put an old love through college and nursing program.  ER is hell and doesn't pay enough, btw.

I suggest you work out what career you want, then find out about the qualifications.\n\nNon clinical Public Health roles in the UK are limited to statistical & analytical roles usually in PCTs and Strategic Health Authorities although there are specialist centres & universities where this type of role is also required.

There are 3 ways in becoming a nurse (RN).  Diploma program, associate's degree, and bachelor's degree.  You can also become an LPN.  The diploma program and associate degree program take 2 years to complete.  However, most AD (associate's degree) programs require sciences to be completed or will put you on a wait list.  The AD program is usually offered by a community college or local college.  The diploma program is easier to get into (no wait list, no sciences prior to admission) and is offered by a hospital or adult community classes.  The LPN is usually offered through adult classes and will only take 1 year.  The advantage of becoming an LPN is that you will become a nurse in one year and can transfer to a college to then become an RN for only an additional year.  (You can work as an LPN as you study to become an RN).  So, yes it is possible for you to become an RN in 2 years.  If you are a senior now, look at all of the programs near you NOW.  You need to apply because the spots to fill up quickly.  I hope this was helpful in your quest to becoming an RN.  If you can, brush up on your sciences.

I would contact the state board of nursing for the state you want to practice in. They should be able to advise you what is needed.

some nursing schools don't require getting a CNA or LVN before getting an RN. many local community colleges just require you to have pre-requisite classes (science, english, etc) done before you get into the nursing program itself. depending on the area you're from, the RN nursing program may be impacted (there are more applicants for the nursing program than there are spaces), and some may accept those with a lot of previous volunteer work, health background, etc. \n\nhere's a site where you can ask people about all kinds of nursing questions:\n\nwww.allnurses.com

Registered nursing actually has 2 different tracks (there may still be 3).  One may become an RN by going to junior or community college for 2 years and then taking the license exam.   Another way is a 4 year BSN that will prepare you not only for patient care, but for nursing management as well.  Many of the nurses I worked with started out the an ASN (2 yr degree) and then went on to the BSN while working as an RN.  \n\nThere may still be some 3 year diploma courses, but those are going away.  Years ago that was the norm and there were many hospital based diploma courses, but of late they have become college based and ASN or BSN degrees. \n\nAnother route is to take an LPN course which takes about a year and then work as an LPN while going on to RN school.  \n\n There is a well established distance learning program leading to the RN credential at Excelsior College in New York (It was called Regents College and you still hear the term Regents degreed nurse).  \n\nCheck with the NLN - the National League for Nursing as it is the program accreditor for Nursing schools.  It will be very hard to get a job or a license if your school is not NLN accredited. \n\nAlso check your state's licensing board to see if they have any special requirements.

Begin at the community college, then transfer to a university.\n\nI know someone who took nursing assistant classes at a vocational school--the results were not impressive.\n\nThe community college should have career tests, to get an idea of how you would do.

Any accredited school where the nursing graduate acquires an Associates of Science degree in Nursing.  A degree that upon completion, entitles you to test for your RN license in the state in which you live.  Some licenses will work in multiple states and some states would require you to retest if you ever moved, so you should check on the RN license requirements for your state if you are considering going out of state to attend school, and move back home upon completion or vice versa.  If the school you find that best suits your personal needs and will allow you to become a registered nurse is located in the state you plan on residing in once you graduate, then you should be fine.  Keep in mind that this only licenses you as an RN.  I guess circumstance would allow you to work in Pediatrics or not.  If you want to become a Pediatric nurse, meaning a person that not only has an RN license, but further education to allow them to specialize in children's health, you would more than likely be looking at a bachelor's degree in nursing.  It should be relatively easy finding a school that offers an RN program, but depending on where you live, finding a school that would allow you to get a bachelors degree in nursing with a focus in Pediatrics may be a little more difficult.  Again, that all depends on where you live and how easy it would be for you to make that decision to attend.

I think you are out of luck on the nursing front.  I'm not an expert on nursing, but even getting through school requires a lot of needles and no matter what part of a hospital you work in, nurses and needles go together like markers and whiteboards.  \n\nWhat you might want to look into is becoming a doula.  Kind of like a midwife plus if I understand it correctly.  You work with pregnant women preparing them for birth, you stay with them during delivery, and sometimes even beyond.  There is, of course, an association of them and training, certification, etc.  Link below.

yes they are my mom just finished her masters degree in nursing on line and she is graduating this summer.  You just have to check out the school to make sure that they are certified. I am taking online at home courses as well and it is just as good as going to a college except you get to do it in your own home.

Your best bet for this career field would be to get a bachelor's degree in nursing, resulting in RN licensure.  While in school, take courses that would help you to be admitted to law school.\n\nAfter graduation, apply for law school.

I think they would accept any major.  But you would need a good background in chemistry, biology, and math.  Figure out which school you'd like to attend and then check for specific requirements.  If that doesn't work out you could always go into nursing, a field that will boom as there is a major need for nurses right now, and really good pay too.
