Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) provide direct patient care under the direction of a registered nurse or a licensed physician. Typical duties include assisting physicians with patient examinations, recording patient history and personal information, measuring and monitoring patient vital signs, collecting or preparing samples for laboratory tests, administering injections or medications (as permitted by state law), providing for the basic comfort of patients and more.
At North-West College you can learn the skills you need to become a Vocational Nurse working alongside physicians, registered nurses and other health care professionals. Vocational Nurses provide basic medical care and help assess the basic physical, emotional, spiritual, and sociocultural needs of the patient.
The Vocational Nursing program at North-West College provides the hands-on training and education needed to prepare graduates for the National Council Licensure Examination for Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurses (NCLEX-PN/VN) to become a licensed vocational nurse (LVN).
