Hello you all
I would like to know if anyone know if there is anything a graduate LVN can do in the medical field if they have never passed the LVN Boards.
I anyone know of anything I can do in medical or even anything else I can apply for just because I have had the LVN training and Graduate Diploma?
Just wish I could do something that I use all that education I obtained and not have to go back to school .
Please help, if anyone know of anything else I can do just because of the training I have in nursing, please do let me know
Thank you in advance

Just wondering- why don't you take your state boards so you can work as an LPN???

Good luck,
