Roanoke Bible
College has a cooperative agreement
with the College of the Albemarle,
so that interested students may receive training in both nursing and
Bible. In a four-year program, students

which can lead to a registered nurse license, and a Bachelor of Science degree
in Biblical Studies from Roanoke
Bible College.
Roanoke Bible
College’s cooperative agreement with
the College of the Albemarle’s
nursing program seeks to engage in professional nursing education that advocates
lifelong Christian service.
The purpose
of the nursing program, as articulated by the College of the Albemarle, is to prepare students to be
licensed as registered nurses. Upon
completion of the program, students are eligible to take the National Licensure
Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).
Satisfactory scores on the NCLEX-RN will enable a student to become a
registered nurse (RN).
The Associate
Degree in Nursing (ADN) program at College of the Albemarle
is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (61
Broadway, New York, New York 10006, Telephone Number
1-800-669-1656, Fax 212-812-0393).
In addition
to the mission statements, general objectives, and requirements of both colleges,
the objectives of the nursing program are to enable the student to do the
following:
•Perform nursing functions in
meeting the common health needs of patients in a variety of health care
settings such as hospitals, nursing homes, clinics and doctors’ offices.
•Understand basic biological and
social science concepts and skills necessary for practice in beginning
nursing positions.
•Develop nursing skills within a
variety of clinical settings. |
Due to RBC’s
specialized mission, this nursing education takes place in a context in which
students are challenged to consider how they might use their training in
cross-cultural ministry settings.
