Dublin-Laurens County Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Feb. 21.
Registered Nurses (RN) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN) in Georgia who have allowed their license to lapse or become inactive can reenter the nursing field through a short-term nursing reentry program developed by the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG).
Oconee Fall Line Technical College (OFTC) is now one of nine TCSG colleges to offer this program to nurses with lapsed or inactive licenses. This program is offered through OFTC’s Office of Economic Development’s Continuing Education division.
The TCSG, with the support of the Georgia Board of Nursing (GBON), has developed two pathways to reenter the high demand field of nursing in the state of Georgia:
- Registered Nurses (RNs) Reentry Program, and
- Practical Nurses (LPNs) Reentry Program
These nurse reentry programs are designed for those nurses who are presently ineligible for reinstatement of their license because the license has lapsed or has been inactive. Nurses who have active licenses returning to direct patient care who have not worked in the clinical area for some time may also benefit from this program.
For more details or info on how to apply, visit OFTC.edu/nursereentry or contact OFTC ADN Instructor, Jodi Warren at jwarren@oftc.edu or Jodi Warren 478-240-5146.
