Nurses in california! what are some good schools if i want to be a LVN or RN?

Question

i would really like to do this but im not sure what kind of college im supposed to go to? like a community college or somewhere else i live in the riverside county! help please!

Answer 1

Check out your local community colleges, see which ones offer nursing programs. If you don't mind the commute I know Long Beach CC has a nursing program and so does Cypress College. There's long wait lists for enrollment though.

The best way to get into a program is to find a scholarship program at a hospital.

Saint Mary Medical Center in Long Beach is such a hospital, it's a bit of a drive from riverside but it might be worth it. If you're interested go to copehealthsolutions.org and apply for the clinical care extender internship at Saint Mary's.

From experience in hospital administration, this is the best way to get into nursing school. Otherwise you'll be waiting for a couple years.

Answer 2

if you will study nursing, it is best to study in the Philippines.
