title: Integrating management concepts into licensed practical nurse and associate degree in nursing student clinical experiences.
abstract: In an associate degree nursing program in which students have the option to take the practical nurse licensing examination at the end of the first year, management concepts and experiences are introduced during the second semester. Many students work as licensed practical nurses and are expected to manage care for groups of clients. Using this model, students work together to practice time management and leadership skills.
