The Midwestern Career College Licensed Practical Nursing program centers on educating Practical Nursing students to develop strong clinical skills and clinical judgment in order to provide safe, high-quality, and effective nursing care. The program blends classroom instruction with immersive lab and clinical experience, preparing students for success in today’s healthcare environments.
A Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) provides compassionate, hands-on patient care by monitoring vital signs, administering medications, assisting with activities of daily living, and supporting patients across a range of healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, schools, and long-term care facilities. LPNs work collaboratively with registered nurses and physicians to ensure safe, high-quality care while making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives each day.
MCC’s Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) program is approved by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulations.
Graduates of the program are eligible to sit for the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-PN), administered by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN).
Upon successful completion of the NCLEX-PN, graduates are eligible to apply for Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) licensure through the applicable State Board of Nursing, in accordance with state regulations.
The curriculum emphasizes the practical application of theory acquired in the classroom and skills lab to mimic real-world patient care across a variety of clinical settings. In addition, students will have the opportunity to practice their clinical skills and judgement in a safe, controlled simulation environment. The program’s goal is to prepare students to take the NCLEX-PN® and to become safe, competent licensed practical nurses within the nursing profession. The curriculum is designed to support students in achieving the end-of-program student learning outcomes (EPSLOs) and required competencies.
The United States is facing a shortage of skilled healthcare workers, which means there is stable demand for LPNs. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the field is expected to grow by 3% between 2024 and 2034, adding 17,100 new jobs.*
