Reminder: Join us TODAY at 5 p.m. for an online information session with Alaska Pacific University about our licensed practical nursing (LPN) certificate training program. We'll be on Microsoft Teams: https://bit.ly/4mG4g5R. Meeting ID is 299 942 536 365 7. Meeting passcode is 3We775Tz.
The LPN program is held over two semesters and once complete, an individual can sit for a national examination and achieve licensure. With licensure, the LPN can provide direct care to patients and provide health teaching to clients in many settings. LPNs often assist registered nurses in more complex, non-routine care. Typical duties include taking vital signs, administering prescribed medications, giving injections, preparing patients for medical examinations and surgical procedures, and recording information in the patient’s medical record.
