Medic to Rn

[Guest guest]

I have a co-worker and friend that is interested in bridging from a

Paramedic to RN. Any suggestions? Is it worth trying to find a bridge

program or should he just apply and go through a RN program? We live in

Central Texas, Waco,Temple,Kileen area. I myself am a RN and I am

almost finished with my Medic, the program I found made it fairly

simple to bridge but from what I have found its alittle harder to go

the other way. Dont understand it but any suggestions you guys have

would be greatly appreciated.

McLennan Community College used to offer this, not sure if they still

do. Try emailing pwilliams@..., she may know.
