Wow, very impressed with the plan you've laid out for yourself. :)

I'm impressed, too! I would think that, if you're interested in Flight Nursing, working in the ER would be beneficial. Here is a link to a thread for Flight Nurses: http://forums.ultimatenurse.com/emergency-nursing/flight-nurse-20550.html?highlight=Flight+Nursing There are a few links posted in regards to Flight Nursing. Hope it helps!

I went a similar route. I was an LPN out of high school. I just recently was in trauma ICU. You have some good plans ahead of you! I wish you luck in your goals. I learned alot of skills since I began so young. And....you can make lots of $$ if you hang around long enough..... (speaking of traveling anyway) :luck:

Wow,thank you for all the support after reading all of your replys i went to turn in my Medical assistant and Lpn papers,Thank you for all your insight and look foward to posting more.

:houra: GOOD LUCK KYLE :houra:

Ill be sure to update you guys as i progress through the next 2 years and on hopefully,im not too worried about how hard the material is gunna be but a litle more on the stereotyping and in some cases the dislike of males nurses i hope everyone is very excepting,but nothing has ever stopped me before so i dont see why i couldnt do it.If i have any questions during my class i will be sure to post it here because just from talking to you guys ,you all seem very intelligent and know your stuff.

Thanks again
Kyle
