NMCC - Nursing
  NMCC  
 

The multiple entry nursing program is designed to offer individuals the opportunity to enter nursing or to advance in nursing by entering at different levels of the curriculum. Students may enter into the first year of the program, or candidates who are graduates of approved practical nursing programs are provided an opportunity for advanced standing in the nursing curriculum.

 The nursing curriculum is designed to focus upon basic human needs of individuals throughout the lifespan. Through the use of the nursing process, students develop necessary knowledge and skills to provide nursing care to individuals with well-defined health problems. Legal, ethical and role responsibilities of the nurse are addressed within each level. Guided learning experiences in the laboratory and structured health care settings are correlated with classroom instruction.

Graduates will be eligible to take the NCLEX-RN examination. Male and female graduates will find employment opportunities in health care settings such as hospitals, nursing homes and medical offices. Graduates may also choose to transfer to a four year university to complete their bachelor's degree in nursing.

The registered nurse will be an integral member of the health care team and will function under direct or indirect supervision of a registered nurse with more experience or education.
