Paramedic to Rn

[Hill]

hello!! I'm a high school senior, female. Hello everyone. Is a bridge program worth all the trouble of finding one? Does anyone know a good program in Atlanta Georgia?

Funny... I was just researching this... No good answers yet.

OP it is easier to bridge from RN to Paramedic

Nationally, it's far easier to bridge from RN to Paramedic. The number of state boards of nursing that will accept a Paramedic to RN bridge candidate for licensure is far smaller than the number of state EMS offices/agencies that will accept an RN to Paramedic candidate for licensure. I did both the "traditional" way and as such, I'll have an easier time moving from state to state.

For the sake of redundancy, here's one of the more recent threads:

Good luck, op, hopefully this is somewhat helpful to your decision making process.

Go directly to RN. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

Don't waste your valuable time and money going to medic school. Go for your career, and if you still really want to be a medic, find an RN to medic bridge program.
