Fairleigh Dickinson University-Florham Campus Nursing Programs in Madison, New Jersey

A Registered Nursing (RN) program, such as an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN), is designed to prepare students for entry-level nursing positions and successful passage of the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). The program provides a comprehensive education in nursing theory and practice, equipping graduates with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to provide safe, effective, and compassionate patient care. Students learn to assess patients, develop and implement care plans, administer medications, perform nursing procedures, and educate patients and their families. The curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, enabling graduates to make sound clinical judgments and collaborate effectively with other healthcare professionals. The ultimate goal of the RN program is to produce competent and ethical nurses who are prepared to meet the diverse healthcare needs of individuals, families, and communities.
