Georgia Northwestern Technical College (GNTC) is hosting a meet-and-greet event at the new second location of GNTC’s Practical Nursing program to provide an opportunity to tour the facilities and to meet the instructors and students.

The event will take place Tuesday, April 25, from 4-5 p.m. on GNTC’s Walker County Campus at 265 Bicentennial Trail, Rock Spring. The classroom equipment will include new Gaumard patient simulators, or manikins, that can replicate various human patient physiology such as respiration, heart beat and pulse. The Practical Nursing program includes academic and occupational courses, along with a variety of clinical experiences to integrate theory and practice under the clinical instructor’s guidance. Upon completion of the program, graduates receive a Practical Nursing diploma and are eligible to sit for the NCLEX exam.
