HCC nursing program receives more regional recognition

The Hopkinsville Community College nursing department has been recognized as a top program by two major websites.

RegisteredNursing.org has named HCC one of the 2020 Top Ranked Nursing Schools, ranking it fourth of the best nursing schools in Kentucky.  Programs reviewed include schools that offer an Associate in Nursing BSN, or Direct-Entry MSN Degree.

Nursingprocess.org has also named HCC as one of the top nursing schools in the southeast, ranking the college fifth out of 731 schools offering nursing programs in that region. The colleges were ranked based on four important, weighted factors: NCLEX-RN pass rates, academic quality, the nursing school’s reputation and affordability.

HCC Nursing Director Joyce Lambruno says, “We are honored to be recognized as a top nursing program. Our accomplishments are certainly a group effort.  Present and past nursing instructors and students are to be commended for their efforts.”
