Hannah E. Mullins, School of Practical Nursing

HEMSPN offers a full-time 44 week or part-time 88 week, educational and experiential program for a total of 1200 hours. The program requires American Heart Association BLS PROVIDER CPR certification as this prepares the graduate for a career in nursing. Both programs have breaks and holidays incorporated into the academic schedule. Following completion of the program, the graduate who has met the additional State Board of Nursing requirements is eligible to take the NCLEX-PN, a national licensing exam. After successfully passing this exam, the HEMSPN graduate is able to provide care as a licensed practical nurse (LPN) or licensed vocational nurse (LVN) within the scope of nursing practice as defined by the licensing state. Employment opportunities for the LPN include hospitals, long-term care facilities, healthcare provider offices, clinics, schools, and home health care agencies, etc. The HEMSPN graduate also obtains a firm foundation in nursing which enables him/her to pursue higher nursing education, if desired.
