The Nursing Allied Health program has 46 students; Rankin Campus,11 students and Vicksburg-Warren Campus, 15 students for a total of 72 students.

鈥淥ur students’ dedication, determination and perseverance throughout their nursing school journey are truly commendable and deserving of heartfelt congratulations,鈥 said Emily Luther, 性乐园鈥 Director of Practical Nursing. 鈥淓qually commendable is the exemplary effort our 性乐园 Practical Nursing faculty team put forth.鈥

 

Luther said the April 2023 exam was particularly challenging because of changes in the exam鈥檚 style.

鈥淥ur faculty members have labored diligently to ensure that our students were thoroughly prepared for the evolving testing style. Their unwavering dedication and commitment have significantly contributed to our graduates’ success, and we express our sincere appreciation for their tireless efforts,鈥 she said.
