Miami-Jacobs Career College

Miami-Jacobs Career College offers a practical nursing diploma program at its Dayton, Springboro, and Troy, Ohio campuses. The Miami-Jacobs Career College practical nursing diploma program is designed to prepare students for careers as Licensed Practical Nurses. Students in the Practical Nursing diploma program learn valuable skills to begin their nursing careers, including patient care, critical thinking, customer service, assuming accountability and responsibility, and patient care wellness programs.

Students who complete the practical nursing program and become Licensed Practical Nurses can care for sick, convalescent, disabled, or injured individuals under the supervision of registered nurses or physicians. Practical nurses learn how to provide basic bedside care, and take vital signs and patient measurements, including temperature, blood pressure, and pulse. Graduates of the practical nursing diploma program also learn how to prepare and administer injections, monitor IVs and catheters, apply dressings, collect samples, perform routine laboratory tests, and many other nursing duties.

Graduates of the practical nursing diploma program must still meet state licensing requirements, and pass the state licensing examination for practical nurses. Those who successfully complete the Miami-Jacobs Career College practical nursing diploma program do not automatically become practical nurses, and are not eligible for employment as LPNs until they successfully pass state licensing examinations.
