ADN Program Details
The R.N. program prepares graduates to function as entry-level nurses by emphasizing educational competencies within eight core components of nursing practice: professional behaviors, communication, assessment, clinical decision making, caring interventions, teaching and learning, collaboration, and managing care. Graduates of the program are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nursing (NCLEX-RN). The program is directly articulated with a number of higher education nursing programs, thus providing an educational foundation for further study in nursing.
The program is approved by the Maryland State Board of Nursing and is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (61 Broadway – 33rd floor, New York, NY, 10006, phone 800-669-1656, www.nlac.org). The nursing program has specific objectives that correlate with the College’s educational goals.
LPN Program Details
The certificate is designed to give the student who has successfully completed the first two semesters of the nursing program and the summer Practical Nursing option an opportunity to enter the profession of nursing at the Licensed Practical Nursing level. Successful completion of the summer Practical Nursing option prepares the student for the National Council Licensure Examination in Practical Nursing (NCLEX-PN). The certificate program has specific objectives that correlate with the College’s educational goals. These specific objectives are described in the Nursing Student’s Manual. Information on program admission, selection policies and procedures, and eligibility criteria is located on pages 11 and 12 of the College Catalog.
