NCLEX-LPN Course
The NCLEX-LPN (National Council Licensing Examination for practical Nurses)
is a test that focuses on assessing the nurses’ ability to safely and competently provide nursing care to patients. The focus is on making decisions in the clinical area and using sound nursing judgment. The examination is based on the total nursing process.
With a pass rate of over 97 percent, this three-day review class will provide the student with the tools they need for success in the NCLEX-LPN. A systems approach is used to review the content needed to be ready to answer the required number of questions and pass successfully. Medication related to each system is integrated into the review. Structured, proven review course content includes strategies for conquering the newest test format, making clinical judgments, and prioritizing nursing interventions. Practice exam questions and the final exam allow you to identify what you know and where to focus your energy as you continue to prepare to take the State Board exam.
Faculty will also be available for six weeks following the course completion to review, guide, and respond to questions to support student success.
