Associate
Degree in Nursing Program The Associate Degree Nursing Program
prepares graduates to provide and manage client care and to become members within
the discipline of nursing. Intrinsic to the three roles of the nurse--provider
of care, manager of care, and member of the discipline are the eight core components
of nursing practice. The eight core components are: professional behaviors, nursing
process, communication, clinical decision making, care interventions, teaching/learning,
collaboration, and managing care. These core components are introduced, developed,
and built upon throughout the curriculum. Graduates are eligible to take the National
Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). The Associate
Degree Nursing curriculum
is organized around a clearly defined conceptual framework and combines general
education and nursing courses. The nursing courses correlate clasroom and clinical
instruction in a variety of community agencies. The Associate Degree
nursing program has been a stable force in the health care community since 1964.
It is approved by the Kentucky Board of Nursing and accredited by the National
League for Nursing Accrediting Commission.
