How To Go From LPN To RN?

A registered nurse (RN) can earn much more than a licensed practical nurse (LPN), and has greater responsibilities.

An Rn needs to have detailed knowledge of the human body and medications, but many LPN skill sets can be transferred and may be able to save the student time and money.
