Description
Practical nurses are generalists who care for patients and work in many healthcare areas. They provide basic bedside care,
measure and record patients’ vital signs, and assist with bathing, dressing, and personal hygiene in nursing homes,
physicians’ offices, or in patients’ homes. In nursing care facilities, practical nurses can help evaluate residents’ needs,
develop care plans, and supervise the care provided by nursing aides. In doctors’ offices and clinics, their range of
responsibilities may include office-related duties. In the home healthcare setting, practical nurses often prepare meals,
assist in feeding patients and teach family members simple nursing tasks. This program culminates in a Certificate of
Achievement.
Carrington College’s Practical Nursing certificate program prepares students for entry-level employment under the
guidance of a registered nurse or licensed physician/dentist in a variety of healthcare delivery settings.
