HCI College Announces New Practical Nursing Program

West Palm Beach, Fla.HCI College today announced the launch of its new Practical Nursing (PN) program at the College’s West Palm Beach campus, with the inaugural class set to begin in January. The comprehensive program is designed to provide students with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the healthcare industry, helping students become competent nurses.

The PN program will prepare students to deliver high-quality patient care, focusing on practical nursing skills, clinical judgment, and professional development. Graduates of the program will be eligible to take the NCLEX-PN licensing exam, a crucial step toward becoming practical nurses. As the demand for healthcare professionals continues to rise amid Florida’s ongoing nursing shortage, HCI College is dedicated to providing quality education that meets industry standards and prepares students for real-world success.

“Our new PN program is an outstanding opportunity for anyone passionate about healthcare to step into a rewarding and sought-after career,” said Celeste Blackwell, Chief Academic Officer and Senior Vice President of Academic Affairs at HCI College. “We have designed this program to teach students the skills they need to be successful practitioners in the field so they can provide the highest quality care to patients. The PN program provides students another option in the healthcare field and makes it easier for more aspiring nurses to take that next step toward a fulfilling career.”

HCI College is currently accepting applications for the PN program, with financial aid and scholarship opportunities available for qualified students. For more information, visit https://www.hci.edu/programs/practical-nursing or email AdmissionsWPB@hci.edu.
