 NURSING
GENERIC OPTION AS-5510
LPN _ RN OPTION AS-5520
The purpose of the Nursing program is to participate as an active partner in meeting the health care needs of the community by educating and preparing entry level professional nurses to practice in a variety of settings. The faculty is committed to the professional development of the student, the support of the institution within the community, and the enhancement of the nursing profession.
We fulfill our responsibilities to our students, to the broader community, and to the nursing profession by:
  • Fostering and developing creative innovative and   positive learning experiences that support the profession's defined standards of care.
  • Serving as role models and mentors for the student, the community, and the profession.
  • Creating a learning environment in which students are provided the opportunity to develop the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills necessary to assume the role of a professional nurse.
   Graduates of the Nursing Program are awarded the Associate in Science in Nursing degree and are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination _ RN to become a licensed registered nurse. The PCC Nursing Program is approved by the Florida Board of Nursing and accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC), 61 Broadway, New York, NY, 10006; (212) 363-5555.
  Two program options are offered: 1) the Generic option for individuals without a current Florida LPN license, and 2) the LPN _ RN Bridge option. Individuals holding a current Florida LPN license may seek admission to either program. The college seeks to provide as many qualified graduates as practicable, subject to the availability of clinical and academic resources, the existence of community need, and the number of qualified applicants.
  Nursing is a limited admission program and each applicant must first be admitted to the college and meet
pre-admission requirements. Applicants with the best qualifications according to the selection criteria and who meet and comply with all other pre-admission policies, procedures, and requirements will be admitted to the program. The number of new students admitted to each generic class (August and January) will not exceed 72. The number of new students admitted to the LPN - RN Bridge Program (January) will not exceed 36. The college reserves the right to change program and admission requirements, as need dictates. 
  As part of the program, students are assigned to clinicals in various health care facilities in Polk County, and to a limited extent, Osceola. Day (6:30 am - 3:00 pm) and evening (2:30 pm - 11:00 pm) clinicals, or a combination thereof, are also a part of the program experience. Students are expected to acquire many skills and competencies in the program that necessitates individual time in the on-campus nursing laboratory. Students are also advised that assignment of clinical days, times and facilities are made by the nursing faculty and flexibility is expected. Nursing class and clinical time usually demands a minimum of 2-1/2 days per week. Study and practice time necessary to be successful is at least equivalent to the class and clinical requirements. Applicants are encouraged to arrange individual and dependable transportation prior to admission. Students interested in the program are encouraged to consider completing all of the non-nursing course requirements prior to application. 
  Students are strongly encouraged to investigate financial aid eligibility (Pell grants, etc.) at the time of application to the college and/or to the program. Waiting for college registration or acceptance to the program is typically too late. Students need to be aware of financial aid limitations regarding minimum credit hours taken per term, so that plans can be made to accommodate any adjusted financial resources. Information regarding assistance is available through Financial Aid.
   The Board of Nursing has the authority to deny licensure as a registered professional nurse to applicants with a conviction, a no-contest or guilty plea, regardless of adjudication, for any offense other than a minor traffic violation.
FLORIDA NURSING STUDENTS ASSOCIATION (FNSA)
  The FNSA is a pre-professional student organization that is affiliated with the National Student Nurse Association. Students, both Generic and LPN - RN, interested in nursing as a career, but not yet admitted to the nursing program, are eligible to join the association and are encouraged to do so. For further information, please call Mrs. Lynda Schaak at 297-1010, ext. 5629.
