Ideas

My school has three semesters. First is learning the basics, second focuses on adult health and third on life span,OBs,peds etc.. All semesters have theory lab and clinicals combined. I think it would be easier to do theory in one semester, lab skills in the second, and clinicals last but with the topics included in each semester. Does that sound a bit easier to you or do you like it how it is? Do you have any thoughts on what could be done to help you and others with the sequences? Your program may be organized differently but this is probably how most LPN/LVN programs are run and also The RN programs.

    It is done in this manner because most state boards of nursing require concurrent theory and clinical hours.

    In other words, during your OB theory (classroom) education, you need to be attending clinical rotations in L&D or postpartum at the same time. During your adult health rotation, you need to be attending clinical rotations in med/surg or LTC at the same time.

    Some state boards of nursing have refused to grant licensure to candidates who cannot produce evidence of having attended concurrent theory and clinical hours. For instance, if you complete your theory coursework in the first semester and the clinical rotations in the last semester, most state boards of nursing will not issue your license because the theory did not take place concurrently with the clinical requirement.
