Description

The health care industry needs informed, skilled and dependable workers to complete the care team. The licensed practical nurse assists registered nurses and physicians in caring for physically or mentally ill clients. In the long-term care setting and home health, the LPN may supervise other nursing care personnel.


Practical nursing offers employment in many health care settings. Long-term care, physicians' offices, home care, hospitals and clinics provide opportunities for the practical nurse to administer care to a variety of clients.


Note: This program requires prerequisite coursework and selective admissions approval. 


Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are eligible to apply to take the Practical Nursing Licensing exam. After completing the practical nursing program, LPNs may continue their education to become a registered nurse.


Students must “pass” all clinical courses and maintain a grade of “C” or higher in all non-clinical courses to remain in the program.
