Jordan Health Services is pleased to announce it will receive an educational grant which will allow Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) to receive training to receive a Registered Nurse (RN) degree. This is the first grant of its kind awarded in Franklin County. Judy Mabry, Assistant Human Resources Director for Jordan Health Services, has been working with the National Education Alliance and Rue Education on gaining approval for this program for some time.

According to Ms. Mabry, “Rue provides these nurses with a convenient online training environment that makes it easier on their lifestyles. It’s a great opportunity for each LVN!”

Out of the 38 candidates for this program, 10 LVNs were chosen based on job performance and seniority with Jordan. These participants will complete an 18-24 month program involving online courses, nursing classes, and clinical practicum. Once each LVN has completed the RN training, they will go on to take the RN State Board examination.

Jordan is excited about the possibilities this plan will provide to its LVNs who are looking to expand their education. It will allow Jordan to develop its existing nursing staff and put us on the road to becoming a more successful company.
