Hi Michelle:
I am a CNA here in Houston and I have been since 1995. I am planning to challenge the LVN test and I would really like to clarify if you were ALREADY AN LVN WHEN YOU COMPLETED THE ONLINE PHARMACY COURSE OR IF YOU CHALLENGED THE LVN EXAM TO BECOME AN LVN AND IS NOW TAKING THE ONLINE COURSE TO BECOME AN ADN? I am inquiring because if you successfully challenged the LVN exam and you are now working here in Houston as an LVN maybe you could give me some names of hospitals that will hire an LVN who challenged the NCLEX-PN exam in lieu of completing the LVN course. We both know that Texas is a very stringent state to acquire any medical certification, license or degree and as such I am concerned about where I might find employment after I have passed the NCLEX-PN. How did you acquire experience inserting urinary catheters, hanging I.V.'s, accessing the PYXIS, wound care, etc without being in an LVN program having access to a class room and actual patients in a teaching hospital? Currently CNA's are not allowed to perform these tasks. Please contact me via email as I am anticipating your reply and would also like to speak with you about how to successfully navigate the process and avoid the pitfalls. Thank You In Advance.

Lady Maverick in Murrieta, California said: We offer the program so you enroll thru us, classes which includes theory and clinical is being done in Moreno Valley, CA.

whats your school name phone address

thanyou ok can u email me ur in formation for maternity class

Sorry, but I didn't feel like reading everyone elses posts right now (will read later tho)My mother is interested in challenging the board. CNA/RNA for 22 years in NH care. I am currently looking for a pharmacology course for her, but am concerned about whether the test will contain questions on maternity, mental health or pediactric nursing. If u have never worked in these fields would it be smart to still take the tests? or does it the test not have questions like these? I know nursing is mostly common sense, but still...

Thanx :)

Is there any way you can tell me the name of the place or phone number to call? I would like to give them a call and ask for info.or if you have any information that i need to know ,I will appreciate a lot. Thanks and God Bless.

I'm a cna and I would love to challenge the LVN test but I've only been certified since Aug 2008. I worked in a facility that had mental health, long term care and acute care. I would love to further my education. Although a community college is way cheaper I have 3 little ones and not all the time in the world. I live in long beach and was wondering if they have any school/programs that would count me having my CNA certificate towards any credits. Please HELP!!! Any info would be appreciated.

Even if you have an Associate's Degree they will make you retake courses if you had not received credit for these within the last 3-5 yrs depending on the school you go to. I have not come across any school that gives credit *just* for getting certified for nursing assistance. You *can* look up programs and obtain certification for Pharmacology requirement, start getting all of the experience documentation ready for your file, and look for employment in pediatrics and maternity now to get those requirements satisfied. Even if you volunteer its better time spent then spending thousands on courses unless you're getting your degree for RN. It may get your foot in the door at the very least.

Hi,
Total 51 month experience is required-- look at this closely since it is based on 40hr work weeks and if you do a lot of overtime you may have it in less than 51 months.
The board WILL give you credit for having a CNA certificate (they translate it into I think 6 -8 months double check which) so you may be closer than you think :)
good luck!

This California LVN #3, is not useful any where, but California. Trust me, I have checked throughout the Nation. I found out that it is peculea to California. I have challenged it and I passed with flying color; I spent less than one hour on the test before the computer shot me off. Since then I couldn't do anything with it, but to continue studing by regtering for my RN online. I hope this one works out because I am tired of working like an elephant and eating like an ant.

Good luck to all of you who want to go the same rout.

Hi Isreal in Katy: I am Jackie a CNA here in the Alief area here in Houston. I am about to start the Pediatric and Labor & Delivery portions of California's requirements for LVN #3. But like yourself I have also noticed that most of the comments on this message board is between PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. I have yet to encounter ANYONE who has actually taken this route from CNA to LVN who lives here in TEXAS. I know that the process is that you must fullfill the Med-Surg, Pediatric and L&D requirements, have your supervisor(s) fill out and sign the paperwork, include the fees for background check, finger printing etc.,send it all off, wait to see if they find you eligible to challenge the LVN test through California, complete the Pharmacolgy course requirement, take the exam at Pearsons here in Houston, pass your exam and then proceed to reciprocate your license from California to Texas. So after ALL THAT, when you applied for LVN positions here in Texas did these human resources interviewers verbalize any particular concerns with your license? Texas is very strict so I wonder if they didn't like the fact that there was no actual SCHOOL involved, that no CLINICALS were done or that I.V. Therapy was not required to obtain an LVN license. Please reply and fill me in. I TOO DON'T WANT TO WORK LIKE AN ELEPHANT AND EAT LIKE AN ANT. Thanks.

I had been receiving calls from people of interest about the Method3: Qualification Based on Expeience and/or Equivalency, commenting asking if it is true. What I can tell you is visit the boards website= www.bvnpt.ca.gov do it with Google search engine and you will be taken directly to the site and you will see - Application fo Vocational Nurse by Examination click on that and it will open a page that shows all the 4 Methods of examination, click the Method3 and read it over and over again or print it or highlight the Method3 information and save it on your desktop, what I suggest to interested applicants after they lay out to me what experiences do they have is give them a sheet of the Verification of Employment, I tell them if you can work on that Form fill that out and have your charge nurse sign you off to confirm those work hours that's when your journey begins, that will be the time you look for an accredited /approve Pharmacology class (by BVNPT or BRN) and work on the other requirements while yu are on the process of finishing up your Pharmacology class. Do not ask around call the board the number is on their website and when you call ask to be transfered to an education evaluator and ask the name of the person you are talking with make notes of questions you want to ask write down the ans the time and day you called so you have proof that you have called in and spoke to Ms. SO AND SO. that simple. Call and speak to the right people that can give you the right answers. Read the whole information about the Method3. To all out of State interested applicants, I have once spoken to an out of State Board of Nursing, and they told me as long as it is accredited /approved by the BVNPT of California and as long as that out of State do process RECEPROCITY that California acquired LVN License is okay, meaning when you go back to your State as long as they process RECEPROCITY then you can transfer your California LVN License to yourState's LPN License, do I make sense

Ladymaverick55 in Lake Elsinore, California said: If you are not in a hurry, there is an LVN Program cheaper way cheaper than Kaplan, but the school is located close to Anaheim, my email,cnatolvn.info@gmail.com

TO: Ladymaverick55 in Lake Elsinore, CA:..
I'm moving back to Southern CA, and was wondering if you can tell me where this (cheaper than Kaplan) LVN Program is. Also is this a entire LVN program or just the 54hours of Pharm. I have 8 years of acute hospital CNA under my belt already, and trying to find the best way to get my LVN, sooner would be better, but I'm open to suggestions. Thanks, lilu_irwin@yahoo.com

Dan2004 in Denver, Colorado said: Christy
I completed LVN with Minnay Institute last year and I'm in RN program with them also, Colorado does not endorse california lvn programs by challenge so I'll be spending my summers in CA to make some good bucks.
Utilize the set of books they send you, there very helpful and also do as many nclex review practice questions as possible.

good luck

Dan

Would like info on how you completed the program, I'm a CNA and I'm wondering what you did to complete the program and how did you take the nclex gram.

Thanks,
Cynthia

Hi Anna, this isn't relevant to your previous post, however, I believe I read that you are a NP. My daughter just started attending a JCC, which has a RN program but the waiting list is a few years long. Can you tell me what maybe the best way to become a NP in CA. Any advice is appreciated.

297 in Sacramento, California said: NO, you have to be a Certifield Nursing Assistant, and or have military experience

Actually...you don't have to be a certified nursing assistant, you just have to have nursing experience.(You get'credit' for having a certificate but not required). Depending on the setting that Medical Assistants work they may qualify as well (I know of a few that have). The State Board is the only one that can tell you what they will count as nursing experience,

Hi,
I'm an NP-- in order to be an NP you have to be an RN. I went through a school that is a Physician Assistant/ Nurse Practitioner program so I am also a PA. Currently the NP's are required to have a Masters degree and soon it will be a Doctorate degree.
I would suggest applying to RN programs regardless of the waiting list but also looking into the Physician Assistant Programs in California. The PA program has very similar pre-reqs the RN program has and is a great alternative (you don't have to be an RN to do this, MA's, CNA's, PTs pretty much anyone with a healthcare background can apply) Every school has its own pre-reqs... Look into the UC Davis Program and the Stanford Program...
I think while 'waiting' to get into an RN program you could also start working towards a BSN or BS so time is not wasted and you probably will end up doing it anyways,
good luck!

Thanks, I will rely the info to my daughter.

anna c in Sacramento, California said: I wanted to clarify something just so there is no misunderstanding:

California is currently the only state that offers 'qualification based on experience' (method 3) meaning that those with 48 months/10wks med surg experience may take a pharmacology course, request the board to verify the experience and request to be able to sit for the California state board (NCLEX). If you pass the NCLEX you get a California LVN license. You don't have to be a CNA but most are.
Every state has its own rules and regulations and in some it is fairly easy to 'transfer' the California LVN license to their own state--others are stricter, requiring you work in CA for a period of time etc. it is state dependent and you have to call your own state board.
Some CNA's sometimes decide to obtain a CA LVN because it can be used towards some LVN to RN programs and they would complete the RN program in half the time or it is a requirement for the RN program they are looking at (some RN programs are so impacted LVN to RN programs increases their option of schools). The cost varies-- the total price should not exceed $1500-total. This option is very time and cost effective and I would recommend it to everyone. If you are a CNA and don't have the 48 months work on the RN pre-reqs in the meantime and by the time you either reach the 48 months or finish the pre-reqs (at a community college) you can decide your best option.
I personally don't like the term 'LVN bridge programs' because I can't differentiate if they are talking about Method 3 (something that you don't need to attend a program at all for) or an LVN program which is additional time spent and the benefits often don't outweigh the cost-- (this is coming from personal experience working as an LVN for many years before becoming a nurse practitioner)
In my opinion Method 3 is by far the best way to obtain an LVN, getting your RN is a different story the only 'bridge' worth crossing ove

anna c in Sacramento, California said: Hi,
i'm glad that more CNA's are opting to challenge the LVN board--- this is an excellent way to save time and money and getting credit for your experience. CNA's should check the LVN website for more information regarding this option. Even if you don't live in California you may find it to be an advantage www.bvnpt.ca.gov/method3.htm
not only would you get an LVN after your name but many schools will give you credit and you could finish the RN twice as fast in some cases.
Here's another option for the pharmacology course is www.mededprn.tripod.com
Hope this helps,
Good Luck!

Wondering if this program is really true? I've been a CNA for 16 years and I want to become a LVN but in Texas you have to attend a nursing school? please reply.

I used Minnay Institute Pharmacology 54 hours and the NCLEX-VN for the boards, I just want to let you know that my experience with them has been gr8, they have lots of materials even more than enough, I didn't have to hope around using other resources to prepare for the exams. I have passed my CA Boards last week, and I'm enrolling for RN online now with excelsior college, these guys seems they have all excelsior college materials too. Im in NC

yes, it's true for California, CNA's in Texas will sometimes take this route because although they cannot work with this license in Texas they can use it for LVN to RN programs.

noticed my website is not updated in case you're interested:

Congratulations!!! That is very kind of you to post a success story, we all go thru times when we need to hear something like that. I am particularly encouraged to hear that minnay board reviews helped you., i did pharma with them too I just got my pin from the board and was wondering how to go about tackling this remaining part, I've been out of school for many years and Im not very good in taking exams. I'm in sacramento area, lots of places looking for lvn's hope you get a job that you like in your area.

I tried to do this challenge, gathering all the info. The board even replied to me telling what I needed. Including a letter from an RN back east I can't find now. So I stopped. Even spoke to Anna C. concerning her Pharm class. So I'm back to square one and now I see the board page no longer dislpays the Pharm class providers. Or I can't find it. Can someone HELP ME?!

Hi....you're right, looks like they've changed it, I couldn't find the list of pharm providers either... I imagine that because so many on the list did not meet the requirements (the list went from about 10 of us to over 35 listed!) and enough students complained--I've even had some students repeat the pharm class with me because the board didn't accept they class taken!
not sure how you are back at square one... feel free to call me if there's a way I can help,

Hi, I too have been a CNA for over 11 years! Let me ask you, do you have 51 months experience! You need to take the NCLEX-PN exam according to the bvnpt board! It goes like this: Medical-Surgical Nursing: 48 months, for maternity/Genitourinary Nursing, 1.5 months, and finally Pediatric Nursing, also 1.5 months, which is what i need to qualify for the exam! Here is what i did, took phamacology and passed it, then took a NCLEX-PN review course to prepare for this test! I would recommend going that route when going for the exam, you will get better results! Also, make sure you get all your paper work for work experience in order and send them what they ask and in the matter they asked for it! Bottom line: satisfy the paerwork and work requirements and you should have no problem qualifying to take the exam! By the way I could use some help! As i mentioned, I need 1.5 months pediatric experience and evryone is turning me down, esp. children's hospital, can you recommend or help towards finding a place, a nursing home for kids or any hospital in need of yhese types of workers, who willm also be willing to train, let me know and go luck with your path, hope what I told you will helpm you out! The LVN board website: www.bvnpt.ca.gov, take care now, bye!

Cookie, according to the bvnpt board for LVn's, the letter they sent me goes like this: you need 48 months of Medical-Surgical Nursing, and 1.5 months of Maternity/Genitourinary Nursing and 1.5 months pediatric nursing! Also, send in all required paper work, etc. that they ask for and in the manner they ask for it in! The website is www.bvnpt.ca.gov and look under method 3, it should tell yoyu this and everything else you need and need to do to qualify for the exam, ok! Thanks again, hoped that helped, bye!

One of those rough days, I survived Irene hurricane doing my NCLEX-VN in greensboro, NC! My story is weird, I have 4.5 experience, no maternity but substituted by urogenital since im a male, btw very difficult in nc to get maternity for males and worked in doctors office.I have IT background, laid off 2 years ago and stumbled on minnay.com back in april. Did pharma in 2 weeks, and submitted the paperwork and also did their board review, I am waiting for official note from the board and proceed with my rn. I want to encourage folks never to give up, this was my first exam in health care and I was really nervous but I kind like had concept for all the questions asked.

Nicko in Covington, Georgia said: Hey guys did you know that if Persons with 51 months equivalent experience (51 months in an acute care facility), and a 54 hour pharmacology course may be eligible to take the LVN board exam. This course is designed to meet the 54 hour pharmacology requirement for eligibility.

But you need to take a Pharmacology Course. I took this one and did well learnga.com/Pharmacology.aspx

Now I'm thinking of taking a bridge program to RN.

I just heard someone talk about it and I am very excited about doing it. I am looking for information and your answer is the very first one I read and you even have a website for the pharmacology class! Thanks you so much. This is what the internet is all about. I am an RN and am doing this search for my friend. All the best in your endeavors.
