Rita Parker has been a LPN for 30 years. “Nursing was just something I’ve always wanted to do,” she said.

With all the changes occurring in health care, Rita recognized that she needed to further her education to secure her future in a hospital nursing career. “I wanted to further my education to advance my career. Hospitals are doing away with LPNs. I don’t think I’d do well in nursing homes. Also, my husband and I are looking into moving, so I need my RN to get a new job in a hospital,” she said.

A friend introduced her to The College Network. After doing her research, she met with a Program Advisor and signed up for the LPN to Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing program through Indiana State University. Admittedly, distance learning was a challenge for Rita in the beginning, but she soon recognized what she needed to do to be successful. “It took me a while to get used to studying this way. So, I went above and beyond and got additional resources to feel fully prepared. I found out that if you study hard, the tests aren’t nearly as difficult.”
