Nursing Programs at 汤头条app

Employment in nursing careers is projected to grow by 12% for Registered Nurses and 11% for Licensed Practical Nurses through 2028, adding nearly 450,000 jobs, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This rapid employment growth is due to several factors, including a growing emphasis on preventive care, increasing rates of chronic conditions and an aging population. 

To meet demand, health care providers are constantly looking for well trained, qualified professionals to care for patients. Nursing careers are personally and professionally rewarding, and opportunities vary according to job responsibilities, patient groups, professional settings and educational requirements.

North Central's nursing program utilizes a combination of classroom, clinical and lab experience to provide students a hands-on educational experience. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing ranked North Central among the best nursing schools in the state, and in the top tier of ADN-RN programs nationwide.

Graduates of North Central's ADN-RN program are prepared to sit for the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN), which they pass at rates above the state and national average.
