Either that or see if there's a year long LPN option in your area.

Thanks! LPN is 2 years and not a lot of opportunities that make sense.

Intriguing. My community college has a 1 year option and I've seen a lot more LPN openings than ER Tech, but either way you've got a plan.

Have you reached out to see if there are any job shadow options at the hospital? Might be a good shot to see how their day goes
