Vocational Nursing
Start your career in nursing!
A licensed vocational nurse (LVN) works under the supervision and direction of registered nurses and doctors to administer basic nursing care. LVNs may work in hospitals, long-term care facilities, hospice or home residential care facilities.
Our program helps students acquire important nursing knowledge and skills that prepare them for a career in healthcare. Once students have completed the program, they can take the NCLEX-PN exam to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN).
The Nurse Academy is institutionally accredited by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES). Our faculty members are master’s-prepared educators, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses. They bring a wealth of teaching and clinical expertise to the program.
The Nurse Academy is in National City, San Diego County, California.
