Setting the Standard for the future of Nursing
a career where helping to improve the lives of patients and families is a daily
mission. Nursing is an art and a science that provides a human service. It integrates biological
principles, behavioral sciences, technological theories, research and caring to assist individuals
and families to reach their maximum health potential.
More options are available for nurses than ever before. As members of the health care
team, nurses may practice in acute care facilities, long term care agencies, home health
environments and a variety of specialized settings. Additional areas of practice may
include alternative and complementary therapies, pharmaceutical sales, nursing education
and research.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics 2008-2018 Projections, health care occupations
make up 10 of the 20 fastest growing occupations over the next 10 years. More
opportunities for Registered Nurses will become available than for any other
occupation, with a 22% employment increase in the industry expected.
a Letter from the Dean
You may have dreamed of being a nurse because you like helping people. However, once you begin this career you will find
that it brings you not only fulfillment, but so much more. You will soon realize that the endless opportunities in nursing can
take you from working with children to being a trauma nurse in the emergency room and beyond. This versatility broadens
your knowledge and keeps you stimulated and learning continuously. There is never a dull moment in nursing! Also, it’s
good to know that nurses are in demand and salaries are higher than ever before. It’s a great time to be a nurse! Come join

WHAT IS A 1+1 NURSING PROGRAM?
• Hondros College offers a 1 + 1 nursing education program to provide flexibility and options as you work toward your
career goals.
• Level I of the program is the Practical Nursing (PN) program, which will take approximately 1 year to complete. Once you
successfully complete the PN program and pass the NCLEX-PN exam, you may choose to step out of the program and begin
your career as an LPN, or you may choose to continue to the Associate Degree (AD) program (Level II).
• Level II of the nursing program offers an Associate Degree with a major in nursing. The AD program takes 6 quarters to
complete and results in the ability to apply to take the NCLEX-RN exam to obtain the RN license.
Complete your LPN Education in 4 quarters
Complete your RN Education in 10 quarters
If you’re already an LPN, complete your RN education in 6 quarters
Level I: Practical Nursing Program

and Independence campuses.
• Students will take classroom, online and clinical courses for a total of 4 quarters.
• Students can enroll in the program 4 times per year (January, April, July, and October).
• Students will begin clinical experience in their first term, providing immediate opportunities to apply nursing theory
to practice.
• The PN program requires approximately 12 hours of clinical practice per week depending on the course. Clinical shifts are
usually 6-12 hours in length, and may be scheduled during the day, evening, or on the weekends. We have clinical agreements
with long term care facilities, MRDD facilities, day care, and hospitals to provide a thorough, hands-on learning experience
for our students.
Level II: Associate Degree in Nursing Program
• The AD program will take students 6 quarters to complete and is currently offered at the Westerville, West Chester and
Fairborn campuses. Plans are underway to launch the AD program soon at the Independence campus.

preceding LPN program).

LEVEL I - PN PROGRAM
Licensed practical nurses promote the health and well being of individuals under
the direction of licensed physicians, advanced practice nurses, registered nurses, dentists,
optometrists, chiropractors, and podiatrists. As an LPN, you will provide direct nursing
care in a variety of health care settings. You may perform routine laboratory tests, administer
medications, monitor intravenous therapy and contribute to the patient’s plan of care.
LPNs are generalists and work in all areas of health care; but many work in specialized
settings such as long term care agencies, sub-acute care facilities, doctor’s offices, and
home health care agencies.
LPNs can advance to become charge nurses in select settings. Many choose to become
registered nurses by continuing their education. Hondros College offers a Level II nursing
education program for LPNs choosing to become an RN, which can be completed in
6 additional quarters.
In areas where there is a shortage of RNs, LPNs may have
increased opportunities to work in acute care facilities.
Employment of LPNs is expected to grow by 21 percent between 2008 and 2018, faster than the average for all
occupations. This projection is based upon the long-term care needs of an increasing elderly population and the
general increase in demand for healthcare services.(1)
Median annual wages of licensed practical and licensed vocational nurses were $39,030 in May 2008. The middle
50 percent earned between $33,360 and $46,710. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $28,260, and the highest
10 percent earned more than $53,580.(1)

LEVEL II - AD PROGRAM
Registered nurses (RNs) treat and care for patients, educate patients on various
medical conditions, and provide support for a patient’s family. An RN is responsible
for recording a patient’s medical history and current symptoms, assessing the patient,
performing diagnostic tests, administering treatments, and maintaining IV lines.
The RNs is responsible for establishing the plan of care, assigning tasks to LPN’s and
delegating to unlicensed assistive personnel.
Nurses can choose to specialize in a specific area of practice such as perioperative nurses who work in operating
rooms, medical-surgical nurses who provide health promotion and basic medical care to patients with various
medical and surgical diagnoses, or pediatric nurses who provide care and preventative services to children and
adolescents.
Employment of registered nurses is expected to grow by 22 percent from 2008 to 2018, faster than the average for
all occupations. This growth is a result of technological advances in patient care and by an increasing emphasis on
preventive care. In addition, the number of older people, who are much more likely than younger people to need
nursing care, is projected to grow rapidly.(2)
Median annual wages of registered nurses were $62,450 in May 2008. The middle 50 percent earned between
$51,640 and $76,570. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $43,410, and the highest 10 percent earned more than
$92,240.(2)
As the largest healthcare occupation, registered nurses held about 3.1
million jobs in 2008.(3)
About 62% of RNs work in hospitals.(3)
