Nursing Program
Associate Degree
The Associate Degree Nursing Program prepares the graduate
to provide and manage client care and to become members within the
discipline of nursing. Intrinsic to the three roles of the
nurse, provider of care, manager of care, and member of the discipline,
are the eight core components of nursing practice.
The eight core components are:
- Professional Behaviors
- Nursing Process
- Clinical Decision Making
- Caring Interventions
- Teaching/Learning
- Collaboration
- Managing Care
- Communication
These core components are introduced, developed, and built upon
throughout the curriculum. Graduates are eligible to take the National
Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).
The associate degree nursing curriculum is organized around a clearly
defined conceptual framework and combines general education and
nursing education courses. The nursing education courses correlate
classroom and clinical instruction in a variety of community agencies.
ACCREDITATION: The Associate Degree Nursing Program at Jefferson
Community & Technical College is accredited by the National League for Nursing
Accrediting Commission (NLNAC) and Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
