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.
