Traditional Registered Nursing (ADN)

Program Overview

The Associate Degree Nursing program at Belmont College is designed to provide an educational opportunity in which students develop a scientific basis of nursing practice, master technical skills, and develop caring patient relationships.

Lecture, lab, and clinical classes are limited in size which allows for enhanced student/faculty interaction and student learning. Patient simulation, mastery of technical skills, caring interventions, and the development of critical thinking occur in the nursing lab. Clinical experiences in local healthcare facilities provide students opportunities to utilize their knowledge, skills, and abilities while providing nursing care under the direct supervision of qualified nursing faculty.

The goal of Belmont College is to graduate students who have developed a scientific, systematic, evidence-based foundation. The graduate will possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to assist people in meeting their healthcare needs. This two-year associate degree program prepares the graduate to take the NCLEX-RN licensing examination to become a registered nurse.
