I think I want to be an LPN and work in a nursing home?


This Question From LPN Nursing Work | 2 Answers


I am shadowing an LPN on the night shift in a nursing home for my senior project and I think it’s what I want to do after I graduate next June. I have a few questions though.
How long do I have to go to schooling to be one?
About how much would a first time LPN start out making?
Do I have to be really good in chemistry?
Where could I get schooling, like do they give it at normal colleges or what?

Thanks for any help!
Oh and to my last question, I’m not trying to sound stupid but my mom is a nursing assistant and she took her classes at a nursing home.

    no, chemistry is more for pharmacy and doctors but you need to know some
