LPN Transition to Practice Program

The LPN Transition to Practice Program is designed to meet the needs of Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) who are beginning their careers with Vanderbilt University Medical Center.  

Our program focuses on the development of clinical and communication skills, patient safety, as well as other competencies essential to successful LPN practice.  

Development is supported through both classroom and clinical experiences along with ongoing coaching and support from VUMC content experts.
