subject: Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) Duties, Responsibilities, Program [print this page] The LPN/LVN courses are built around these concepts. Beginning students will take a Fundamental Nursing class and an Anatomy and Physiology class. These two classes work well side by side. As they are learning about the body and how it functions, they are also learning about how they fit into this career called nursing. With this knowledge base, the student will take a Pharmacology course as well as a Medical/Surgical course. Again, these courses work well together as the student learns about specific illnesses and diseases with what types of medications may be prescribed. The final courses the student takes are in the specialty areas of Obstetrics/Maternity, Pediatrics, and Psychiatric Nursing.
