Home, Pennsylvania (EYT) – Imagine a career that makes tangible differences every day.
A career where your skills are in high demand and your work is truly appreciated. That is the reality of practical nursing. Maybe you're working as a nurse's aide and want to move forward. Alternatively, you are looking for a rewarding career change that suits your life. Time and cost can feel like a huge hurdle.
But what if you could start a nursing career at a Pennsylvania home in just 11 months? At Rapha School, our hands-on nursing programs are designed to quickly get you into the field with the skills and confidence you need to succeed.
Why practical nursing?
Practical nursing provides a quick track for a fulfilling career in healthcare. Unlike the long RN program, the 11-month program prepares to take the NCLEX-PN exam and quickly enter the workforce. The demand for LPNs is high, ensuring job stability and career growth. If you are a certified nurse aide, this is your chance to improve your career and increase your profitability. If you're new to this field, start a rewarding career in healthcare without spending years at school.
