FAQ – Most frequent questions and answers

CNA to LVN Method 3 – How To…

A 54 Hour Pharmacology Program is a requirement for the California Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians (BVNPT) Method 3, CNA to LVN. The BVNPT Method 3 requires at least 51 months of paid bedside nursing experience including a minimum of each of the following:
– 48 months Medical/Surgical Nursing
– 6 weeks Maternity or Genitourinary Nursing
– 6 weeks Pediatric Nursing
– 54-hour Pharmacology Course

51 months paid experience of which:
48 months medical/surgical of which 40 months MUST be in a hospital on an inpatient ward (oncology, ICU, telemetry etc.) or a long term skilled facility.

A maximum 8 months may be gained in an outpatient such as clinic, ER, doctor’s office, outpatient rehab, EMT, psychiatric. The Board wants the majority of the med/surg experience (18+ inpatient) to be in a hospital on an inpatient ward or long term skilled facility handling adults.
1.5 months (240 paid hours) pediatrics
1.5 months (240 paid hours) maternity or genitourinary

Maternity and pediatrics may be gained in any of the above settings including inpatient and outpatient and does not count toward the 8 month maximum in outpatient medical/surgical.
All hours must be within the previous 10 years and half must be within the previous 5 years.
If you have a CNA certificate, submit a copy with your application for 5.0 months of med/surg credit. No credit for home health, assisted living or residential care facilities, phlebotomy, or CEU type courses.

Upon satisfactory completion of the 54 Hour Online Pharmacology course AND meeting the required experience stated above, the student will be able to sit and challenge the Vocational Nursing licensing examination and become an LVN without going through a completion of a regular Vocational Nursing Program.

If you have some formal nursing education and at one time were enrolled in a LVN or RN Program, you may meet the requirements to challenge the Board. It all depends on how much schooling you completed. Your school will have to submit to the boards required documentation so make sure you can get your school to participate.

If you are currently in a nursing program, make sure that you will or have completed 54 hours of pharmacology. From what we have seen lately, most nursing programs are only offering 48 hours of pharmacology, which will not satisfy the boards requirements.
If so , you can take our 54 hour Online Pharmacology Program and we will mail the required documents to the board once you pass the program with a 75% or greater.
