Labouré is committed to preparing individuals to deliver patient-centered care as members of an interdisciplinary team. Quality improvement approaches and the use of information technology are important elements of clinical education at Labouré.
As an LPN, you already have clinical experience from your prior program, so we'll be building on that. You will participate in clinical education in both of your professional nursing courses, starting with NUR 1035: Health and Illness Concepts of the Adult.
In addition to working with live patients outside the lab, you'll be able to practice your skills in the skills labs and simulation labs on campus. Through simulation technology, you can practice and learn different aspects of patient care on high-fidelity manikins before working with live patients at clinical sites across the Boston, North Shore, and South Shore areas. This is a low-stress but highly effective way to practice and build confidence in new skills.
Each professional nursing course includes 12-15 hours per week of clinical/lab time in addition to about 5-6 hours of classroom theory. Your clinical hours will take you to a variety of sites over your professional nursing courses, and as you learn about different skills, different types of patients, and different health concepts that affect your patients at different times in their lives.
