The practical nursing program at the College of Southern Maryland is the first step of a career ladder. Graduates of the program are eligible to take the licensure examination for practical nurses and can, if they wish, apply for admission to the 2nd year of the associate degree nursing program.

Graduates of the program will be prepared to give competent nursing care to patients in hospitals, nursing homes, and other comparable health agencies under the supervision of more experienced practitioners and with appropriate experience can assume increasing responsibilities in nursing.
