NURS 3101 - Role Transition of the LPN

Credits: 1 Spring

This course is designed to support Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) as they transition into the expanded professional role of the BSN-Registered Nurse (RN). Emphasizing the development of critical thinking, clinical judgment, leadership skills, and professional accountability, the course bridges prior LPN experience with the competencies expected at the BSN-RN level. Students will explore differences in scope of practice, responsibility, delegation, care coordination, and evidence-based decision-making. Additional fee required.
