The Practical Nursing program is committed to providing the highest quality education so that all of our students are empowered to lead productive and fulfilling lives as lifelong learners and responsible citizens. Through cooperative team efforts, the program provides specialized training so that graduate practical nurses become successfully employed in the health science profession. Students are encouraged to develop and reflect on capabilities that will foster their participation as professionals in the delivery of health care in hospitals, long-term/rehabilitation facilities, and community-based agencies.
