[contentblock id=28]

To become an LPN in Jacksonville, FL the prospective student must enroll and complete a state approved LPN education program and then pass the NCLEX-PN exam. This will require both classroom knowledge and practical nursing skills. Our directory lists all Jacksonville area schools that currently offer approved practical nurse education. It is recommended that you double check with the Florida State Board of Nursing prior to enrolling, just to make sure the program is in good standing and meets all state requirements. The coursework should take between 1-2 years to complete, depending on whether the student is pursuing an Associate’s degree or a practical nursing certificate. Colleges, universities, hospitals and vocational education institutions in Jacksonville may provide training for prospective practical nursing students.

The required courses will differ slightly from one program to another, but typical classes will include Fundamentals of Nursing, Human Anatomy and Physiology, Mathematics for Nurses, Microbiology and Pharmacology. There are online LPN programs available as well. Most online LPN courses include a combination of classroom study and clinical practice. Since nursing is a hands-on profession, many of the required job skills must be learned and practiced in person.

Can My College Credits Be Applied Towards an LPN Certificate

Some college credits may be applied towards certain LPN programs. Students must submit their transcripts to their target school and see which credits are transferable (if any). If the student has completed similar coursework to what is required by their new program then they will likely be able to receive credit for coursework already completed.
