Can a Certified Medical Assistant become a LVN easier than someone without this certification?
Asked by Andie O
A:
Best Answer:
Recently more schools are offering quick programs for LPN- RN, EMT- RN, etc. However, I have yet to see a school who offers a "Fast track" or "Bridge" program from Medical Assistant to LVN or LPN.
If you completed your Medical Assisting program through a credited college your credit hours may apply towards furthering your education, you'd have to check with your guidance counselor to see what classes would transfer.
As you start whichever program you choose to pursue your experience as a Medical Assistant will help none the less!
Good Luck with your educational search!
A:
You probably still have to take the entire program for LPN/LVN. It will make it a little easier on you though because some of the material will be a review
