The Practical Nursing Program is an approved nursing program by the Florida Board of Nursing. This program combines lectures and hands-on skills practice in our nursing lab, and clinical externship at local hospitals, long-term care facilities, rehabilitation centers, and ambulatory clinics. The program prepares students for employment in these facilities as entry-level practical nurses, and to transfer to a program to become registered nurses.
