Licensed Vocational Nursing
|
|
|
The Licensed Vocational Nursing program is a stateapproved vocational program which provides the curriculum necessary for an individual to qualify for the state board examination for licensure as a vocational nurse. The curriculum includes prerequisite courses and the equivalent of three academic semesters of nursing theory and supervised clinical experiences.
The primary role of the licensed vocational nurse is to provide bedside nursing in a variety of clinical settings. The student will study common medical-surgical conditions—their origin, prevention and treatment— emphasizing the related nursing care. To help the student provide “individualized” nursing care, other courses provide basic psychology and sociology concepts relevant to the development, motivation and reactions of people— healthy and ill.
At the successful completion of the program, students will be able to:
1. Perform effectively the functions and duties of the vocational nurse.
2. Qualify for the examination leading to licensure by the California Board of Vocational Nurse and Psychiatric Technician Examiners.
3. Qualify for a Butte College Certificate of Achievement.
