On Site On Line Nursing Program
at Southern Ocean County Hospital
This program is for students from Four Counties of Southern New Jersey. It is a FALL program. The next class will be Fall 2010.
This unique option allows committed, motivated
individuals to complete our RN program
by attending class
at the Southern Ocean County Hospital (SOCH)* supplemented with web-assisted instruction. Students from Ocean, Cape May, Atlantic and Burlington Counties are encouraged to apply and will receive the in-county tuition rate. A healthcare background is a requirement. If you are NOT from one of these counties, you may apply for the regular OSOL Spring 2011 program.
About this Program at SOCH The program is designed so that all classroom, laboratory and clinical face-to-face learning experiences are delivered within Southern Ocean County Hospital*, allowing the students to keep their employment in healthcare. Online components to the didactic (classroom) portions of the entire nursing curriculum allow significant portions of the courses to be taught in a web-assisted manner, giving students major improvements in access and learning. This program of study is designed for people
who are employed or have significant family
responsibilities and wish to undertake professional
study leading to a Registered Nurse license.
The nature of their employment (multiple shifts
per week that are lengthy in nature) has been
incompatible with a traditional program of study.
Healthcare experience is required. The clinical experience, face-to-face colloquium, and nursing laboratory are offered on a scheduled days during the week. However, students are expected to arrive either early in the morning (5 A.M.) or the evening before, to pick up their clinical assignments and prepare their patient research. Additionally, students must schedule time to practice their skills in a nursing skills laboratory which is available days and evenings Monday through Friday and on Saturday mornings. *Clinical experience may not be limited to SOCH and may have experiences at other clinical locations. Students may have to attend clinicals anytime 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday. Students with disabilities
