Hybrid LPN

About

The primary purpose of the Practical nursing (PN) program is to provide classroom and clinical learning experiences which enable graduates of the program to obtain the basic competencies needed to secure licensure and become gainfully employed.  Clinical experience is conducted in  area facilities.

Following successful completion of the PN program, graduates will take a nationally standardized exam, the NCLEX-PN leading to licensure as a licensed practical nurse, LPN.  (TN Code Annotated, Individuals with certain criminal histories may not be eligible for licensure.)

Practical Nursing admission is not automatic, even though the applicant may be otherwise academically qualified.
