Nursing (LPN-to-RN Bridge Program)

Registered nursing (RN) is one of the most popular careers in healthcare, and it’s no wonder why: with a wide range of exciting skillsets and excellent salary potential, registered nursing is a rewarding path of study for a student with a passion for the medical field. RNs work independently or in collaboration with physicians and members of other health care disciplines, writing and managing patient care plans, assessing patient symptoms, provide assistance during examinations and treatments, and administering medications. As a student in the registered nursing program, you’ll study in a fully equipped hospital laboratory setting, including high-tech patient simulators that feature sophisticated vital signs such as respirations and pulse. You will also gain hands-on experience during clinical rotations at local hospitals, included as part of your schedule.

Care for patients at the bedside and beyond. You’ll learn medication administration, procedures, care planning, and how to coordinate with the rest of the care team. The training moves from class to lab to clinical so you can practice before you’re on a real unit.

Finish an approved nursing program, complete state modules like infection control and child abuse reporting, then pass the NCLEX-RN. After that, the state board reviews your file and issues the license.
