Nurses work with patients to coordinate their care. Whether it’s checking in on a patient with an IV or taking blood for lab work, nurses will participate in many aspects of a patient’s care and will often be the person that the patient sees the most.
Hands-on Experience
HCI’s nursing program integrates a holistic approach to patients, which includes showing compassion, empathy, and care with patients at all times. Graduates will demonstrate knowledge, cognitive ability, and technical proficiency with medical equipment and procedures.
Getting hands-on experience through simulated medical settings and through actual interactions with patients in real-life scenarios prepares you, the graduate, with the tools you need for becoming a nurse in Florida.
Nursing students become well-acquainted with professional nursing techniques, human anatomy and physiology, and caring for patients in a variety of medical situations.
When you have completed the program, you will be ready to take the National Council Licensing Exam (NCLEX) to become a Registered Nurse (RN).
