North-West College-Glendale Nursing Programs in Glendale, California

The Registered Nursing (RN) program at North-West College-Glendale, typically offered as an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN), is designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and clinical judgment necessary to provide safe and effective patient care as registered nurses. The program combines classroom instruction with hands-on clinical experiences in a variety of healthcare settings. Students learn foundational nursing concepts, including anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and microbiology, as well as specialized nursing care for patients of all ages and with diverse medical conditions. A key focus is placed on developing critical thinking, communication, and teamwork skills, which are essential for collaborating with other healthcare professionals. Furthermore, the program thoroughly prepares students to successfully pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN), a requirement for licensure and practice as a registered nurse. The ultimate goal is to graduate competent, compassionate, and ethical nurses who are prepared to make a positive impact on the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities.
