From LVN to RN, One Step at a Time
For the past seven years, Eric has been working as an LVN for Kaiser Los Angeles Medical Center’s outpatient clinic. When he learned about the Education Fund, he decided that nothing was standing in the way of his goal of elevating himself from an LVN to an RN.
When he began his educational journey, the Education Fund supported him by paying for the tuition(opens in a new tab) and the textbooks for his RN program prerequisites and general education courses. As the classes started to become more intense, the Education Fund provided him online tutoring services(opens in a new tab) available 24 hours a day. Once he passed the TEAS and officially enrolled in the RN program, he became eligible for the Education Fund’s Wage Replacement(opens in a new tab) program along with reimbursement of the RN program’s tuition, textbooks, NCLEX study materials, and NCLEX application fee!
I know this is a long and difficult journey, but please do not give up that easily. If I can do it, so can anyone! I cannot thank the Education Fund enough for my new career!
Due to all of Eric’s hard work and dedication, he was recently accepted into Kaiser’s RN new grad program and started his dream job in February 2021.
