Middlesex Community College Offers RN Refresher Program

The next session begins May 31.

Registration is now open for Middlesex Community College’s noncredit RN Refresher Program. This program is designed to prepare Massachusetts registered nurses who have been away from nursing practice for an extended period of time to re-enter the workforce by updating nursing concepts and skills. The next session begins Tuesday, May 31.

The goal of the program is to provide a supportive learning environment necessary to refine skills and develop a sound knowledgebase needed to practice in today’s complex health care environment.

This program consists of 72 hours of theory and hands-on practice in MCC’s Nursing Skills Lab on the Lowell campus. There is no clinical component. A certificate and 7.2 CEUs are awarded upon successful completion (72 hours). Students must have a current, valid Massachusetts RN license in good standing to take this course.
