LAHC Nursing courses may have both a lecture and a clinical component. It is necessary that the student perform satisfactorily in the hospital laboratory clinical experience in order to receive credit in any nursing course. A nursing student must have in force professional liability insurance, meet and maintain the health standards established by the Los Angeles Community College District, the immunization and CPR and OSHA certification requirements of the clinical agencies, and when in uniform, the appearance standards of the program. The college policy will be followed regarding course repetition following receipt of an unsatisfactory grade. A student may enroll in a course a maximum of three times.
Enrollment is defined as attending at least one class meeting.
When a student withdraws from the program, readmission is not automatic. Nursing 311 through 347 constitute a modularized curriculum in registered nursing courses. As with any college-level courses, students should expect that several hours may be needed to prepare in advance for any class or clinical nursing assignment. In addition to final exams, students are required to complete National League for Nursing exams at specific times during the program. Students are expected to attend all class and clinical sessions.
