DTC Enrolls First Licensed Practical Nursing Program for Fall 2007

 

Denmark Technical College received approval from The South Carolina Board of Nursing and the South Carolina Technical College System in July to implement a Practical Nursing Diploma Program.

 Denmark Technical College’s Practical Nursing Diploma Program is a 3-term cohort-based program which is designed to enroll 20 full time students. New students begin in the fall and attend the spring and summer terms to complete the program. As a Technical College, Denmark Technical College serves primarily Bamberg, Barnwell, and Allendale Counties.

 “Denmark Technical College is very pleased to implement the Practical Nursing Program this year. The College has been preparing for the program with the installation of new state-of-the-art labs and the purchasing of nursing equipment.  The Practical Nursing program will be a great asset to health care providers and residents within our service area,” said Dr. John Waddell, President of Denmark Technical College.

Denmark Technical College has responded to a critical need within its communities,

With the shortage of nurses in the service area, this program will enable Denmark Technical College to contribute to the economic development of the service area.

In preparation for the Nursing Program, Bonnie Stroman, Dean of Nursing at Denmark Technical College, arrived in February 2007. Ms. Stroman has more than 33 years of experience, to include six years teaching practical nursing students.The faculty also includes Deborah Smoak and Teneane Foster, who serve as instructors for the program.

“The nursing faculty, staff and students are pleased to be a part of this very exciting time for Denmark Technical College and our community. The first class of Practical Nursing students is in full swing with their learning both in lecture and skills lab portion of the program.  The faculty and I are excited as we instruct and guide these men and women into becoming Licensed Practical Nurses,” said Bonnie Stroman.

Upon completion of the practical nursing program, graduates will be eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses to become a Licensed Practical Nurse. The LPN may then practice nursing with the guidance of a registered nurse or a physician in a variety of settings.
