questions About nurse apprentice program
- Facilities implement a Nursing Apprentice Program and hire nurse apprentice students
A Nurse Apprentice is an employee of an agency who is currently enrolled in a pre-licensure RN or PN nursing program. The Nurse Apprentice works at a health care facility providing nursing care following the Nevada State Board of Nursing approved skills list (see below). As Nurse Apprentices progress through their nursing programs, their ability to perform more of the approved skills increases. The Nurse Apprentice Program offers students the opportunity to practice their clinical skills and to acclimate to the role of the licensed nurse.
