This program is a one-year program that prepares graduates to provide safe direct patient care as licensed practical nurses (LPN) in acute care, long-term care, home health, and ambulatory care settings. The program includes both classroom study and supervised clinical practice (patient care). The curriculum includes diverse learning experiences consistent with the Practical Nursing Program outcomes. Varied clinical experiences provide opportunities to learn and provide care to clients from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Concepts of social, behavioral, and biological foundations are integrated throughout the curriculum. The role of the LPN in relation to client needs; safe, effective care environment; health promotion and maintenance; and psychosocial and physiological integrity are integrated throughout the curriculum. A Certificate of Specialization is awarded upon completion of the Practical Nursing Program requirements.

Data is unavailable for one of several reasons: In some cases, the institution has not provided the Workforce Board with data to independently evaluate program performance. We encourage all schools to provide this data on an annual basis. In other cases, the program joined Career Bridge recently and student data has not been reported yet. In other cases, the program is too small or too new to provide reliable results.
