Due to personal reasons, it took me some time after graduation to finally sit for the NCLEX. Even though I was technically done with the program, the faculty never abandoned me. They continued to reach out, check in, and offer guidance and resources to help me prepare. Their support went far beyond what was required. They genuinely care about their students success, not just during the program but even afterward. This program doesn't just educate you it stands by you. I am incredibly grateful for the encouragement, dedication, and belief they had in me until the very end.

Hello, LA county employee and resident here, just chiming in as someone whose been at other…read morecollegiate level schools and various trade schools. This LAC program is a RARE find and I've highly recommended this program to many people. Please do not get discouraged about applying to this school, we may lack some amenities, but I wanted to set the record straight because false information is not information. 1. We have a student counselor. They are introduced to you at NEW Student Orientation 2. If you need ADA accommodations, please see the office of education for additional information. 3. We have multiple computer rooms and study rooms for students to sign up for. If you need help looking for one, please visit the library or ask the front office for assistance. 4. There are 2 metro lines- 78 and 605. Infront and across the street from the school 5. In terms of safety- this is a CLOSED campus with badge access. Students can park at a free and guarded parking lot structure across the street from campus with badge access. 6. The real world average nurse-to-patient ratio is generally recommended to be one nurse for every four patients but can depend on departments; school is weaning you into real world practice. 7. You can log the documents that you turn in at the front office in a log, if that gives you peace of mind about what youv'e turned in. Please note if office is requesting the same documents various times throughout the year, other internal department within LA county are asking for it so they can provide students with clearance to attend to patients. 8. Lost and found is in front office. 9. This is a full-time course and can be tough; you can do difficult things. Believe in yourself. 10. For anything you sign we retain it in the student or class file- feel free to ask for a copy or come into the office to see it. As an Angelino, I'm hopeful for the future students coming out of this program. I know that with OPEN communication we can improve this program for current and future students. When we look back at the places we've been, I want us all be able to say we left it a little better. I will share comment from user Bella L. to the correct departments in hopes we can change some things. Your confidence with direct patient care will be achieved through experience.

But that's not just the academics. Be ready to put effort into your lab, lecture, and clinical. You will gain experience depending on the amount of effort you're willing to put into.

She's smart so listen to the advice she gives you even if you think it doesn't apply to you . I passed both my exit exams! I didn't wanna take my nclex so fast but ms Adrienne pushed me and if it wasn't for her i might've waited weeks or months. Melanie ( who works for student affairs ) sent my paperwork off the very next day! we graduated Friday and i was scheduled for nclex a week after graduation and I did pass! I want to thank Melanie for being so fast in scheduling my nclex but also for the school being so fast in paying for my license! I am now officially a nurse. when it seems you can't do it and you don't have any motivation do not give up!

They definitely hold students to high standards--especially when it comes to dress code, appearance, and cell phone use (phones are not allowed in class or the hallways). That said, the program itself is challenging, but completely doable if you're committed. Just know that they won't hold your hand every step of the way--you really have to advocate for yourself, ask for help when needed, and stay engaged. I'm about to start Term 3 and will be sure to come back and share an update on my experience! Soooooo I graduated and am a LVN now ! Can say it was a challenge but huge shout out to Miss Adrienne she really shows up for you in term 3 A,B, CD when you work for it. Recommend this school to any one who is READY to commit 110% !

I am very thankful to this school. About me before I started this LVN program I have a bachelor's…read moredegree in a field I never used and worked in real estate sales for 18 years. I also earned my AA degree from a junior college, so I was already familiar with being in school and taking state exams. While attending this school, I worked as a notary notarizing loan documents, which gave me the flexibility to support myself during the program. The truth is that I have had a passion for nursing since junior college. Although Nursing is an intimidating career, I could not ignore the feeling that it was calling me. I entered the program one month after it had already started, which made the beginning very challenging. I barely slept at first, but once I adjusted to the pace, it became manageable. If you stay focused and put in the time & work, you will graduate. You must study, read the required material, and follow your instructors' guidance. At the time, our exam preparation for the NCLEX was through ATI. I graduated from the 21-month LVN program in July 2021. I was a COVID-era student, and although hospital clinicals were limited, we still attended clinicals when allowed. I completed several days at a local community hospital in Norwalk. Since graduating, I passed the NCLEX on the 1st try and have done well with my LVN license. I worked in a hospital for about 8 months but realized it was not the best fit for me because I wanted to help my patients more quickly without waiting for RN's to push IV meds. I now work at different rehabilitation healthcare centers (nursing homes) and sub Acute, which I enjoy. Overall, this school helped me take my first steps as an LVN, and I plan to pursue my RN in the future. I recommend this school to anyone willing to stay disciplined, prioritize studying, read their books, watch learning videos, and support their cohort. If you truly commit, you can succeed. Good luck to everyone reading this, and may God bless you on your journey to becoming a nurse.

The ATI program we used is very helpful, master it and use it often. If you treat people with respect they will treat you with respect, that's everywhere.. I am putting my son through this program as soon as he's out of high school.
