This 10 month, full time, day program (Monday - Friday, 7:50 am - 2:20 pm) beginning late August through June, prepares men and women to fulfill their dreams to have a career instead of just a job. Graduates are prepared for opportunities in nursing homes, office nursing, clinics, hospitals and community health nursing. At the end of the program students receive a Certificate of Proficiency in Practical Nursing and are eligible to take the NCLEX-PN for licensing as a Licensed Practical Nurse !!
Description
The LPN practices according to the Nurse Practice Act of each state, but generally performs direct care, including the administration of medications, treatments and assists in teaching patients and families. In many long-term care settings, the LPN manages and delegates the nursing care provided by unlicensed personnel. The LPN must successfully complete an educational program that provides the knowledge and skills for practice and pass the National Licensing Examination (NCLEX-PN).

Once a student reaches 18 years of age or attends a post secondary institution, he or she becomes an "eligible student" and all rights formerly given to parents under FERPA transfer to the student. The eligible student has the right to have access to his or her education records, the right to seek to have the records amended, the right to have control over the disclosure of personally identifiable information from the records (except in certain circumstances specified in the FERPA regulations, some of which are discussed below), and the right to file a complaint with the Department. The term "education records" is defined as those records that contain information directly related to a student and which are maintained by an educational agency or institution or by a party acting for the agency or institution.
