Our class sizes are small. No more than 8 students (in compliance with COVID-19 regulations) in each class to ensure personal attention. We offer a multi-media experience including text book, computer-based, and video learning to provide our students with a high-quality learning environment. The skills lab provides our students with hands on work in a range of fields, from monitoring vital signs to learning the documentation skills needed to work confidently in any situation. We use a variety of live models and teaching aides to provide a well rounded experience. Our students benefit from 40 hours of supervised work in the field. At the facility, students work hands-on with patients under the supervision of an RN to ensure that concepts taught in our classrooms are tested in a real world environment. Our school is licensed by the State of Virginia for Nursing Assistant Program.
