Licensed Vocational Nurse Training

Licensed Vocational Nurse Training Can Lead to a Brighter Future for Your Career


Licensed practical nurses (LPNs), or licensed vocational nurses (LVNs) as they are called in Texas and California, care for the sick, injured, convalescent, and disabled under the direction of physicians and registered nurses. All States and the District of Columbia require LPNs to pass a licensing examination after completing a State-approved practical nursing program. A high school diploma, or equivalent, usually is required for entry, although some programs accept candidates without a diploma or are designed as part of a high school curriculum. Most Licensed Vocational Nurse Training lasts about one year and includes both classroom study and supervised clinical practice. Classroom study covers basic nursing concepts and patient-care related subjects, including anatomy, physiology, medical-surgical nursing, pediatrics, obstetrics, psychiatric nursing, administration of drugs, nutrition, and first aid. Clinical practice usually is in a hospital, but sometimes includes other settings. More information on becoming a Licensed Vocation Nurse is available by clicking any of the buttons below.
