About
Practical Nursing education at TCAT Harriman replicates the reality of nursing practice while preparing students with the knowledge to provide healthcare in a variety of settings.
Approximately 60% of the program is presented as classroom theory and testing; while the remainder of the training is spent in supervised and evaluated clinical experiences at local healthcare facilities. This framework provides the student the opportunity to obtain the knowledge, skills and abilities essential to fulfill the requirements to receive a diploma in Practical Nursing, be eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for the Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN) and obtain an entry-level practical nursing position.
