might check hiring after these programs. I would be concerned that hospitals hire B.S. nurses not RN only. My neighbor with an RN lost her house because she couldn't get employed with only an RN.

Most doctors offices hire Nurse Practitioners and nursing assistants.

But maybe that is just those I visit.

Do a google search and see...

Check at the local community colleges here...

Wouldn't be surprised if there are LPN to RN in less than a yr programs available. My wife is an RN with a BSN, but I've never heard her mention anything about not having the BSN (vs the 2 yr RN) a big deal.

Hospitals are going for Magnet status.....so the BSN nurses are preferred over the A.S. RN degree. Check UCF and USF for RN to BSN programs.

I believe UWF and FSU have online bridge programs as well.

Pretty much all state colleges do this.
Lake-Sumter, Valencia, and Seminole are all good choices.
As for the BSN, you can earn that entirely online.
