Overview

After this Two-year Practical Nursing diploma, students will be ready to start the healthcare career they have always dreamed of. They will learn about the Nursing process and the role of nursing education in promoting health and wellness. They will hone their communication and leadership skills. And – from minor scrapes to complex health challenges, mental health and even palliative care – they will gradually develop a holistic approach to nursing, and the capacity to provide care and comfort to patients with varying conditions at all stages of life. At every step along the way, they will practice new skills within the state-of-the-art training facility. And they will top it all off with an eight-week placement that marks the official start to their career as a caring and competent practitioner. Practical Nursing is is a 2-year (4 semester) program leading to an Ontario college diploma in Practical Nursing. Northern College’s Practical Nursing program has received a Category 1 Program Approval from the College of Nurses of Ontario. Northern College delivers the current diploma program standards that meet the national Entry to Practice Competencies to prepare graduates for the Regulatory Exam – Practical Nurse (REx-PN). Northern’s Practical Nursing program holds as its philosophy a set of beliefs and values based on five key concepts: the client, health, caring, nursing, and the role that teaching and learning play in enabling individuals and their families and groups to achieve optimal health outcomes. These concepts are interrelated, interdependent and integrated throughout the curriculum. Registered Practical Nurses work with individuals, families, groups, and communities (autonomously or in consultation with nursing and the multi-disciplinary team) to assess, plan, implement, and evaluate evidence-informed nursing care, services and programs that promote health and rehabilitation, prevent injury and disease, maintain and restore health, and provide palliation.
