CPR Certification

CPR Certification is a requirement for ALL students in Our Lady of Lourdes School of Nursing program. All incoming students are required to be CPR certified. Evidence of Certification; i.e., copy of CPR card indicating expiration date. Certification must then be kept current for the rest of the program.


We call your attention to this requirement to allow you time to complete your CPR certification if you do not already have it. If you need to be re-certified, please do so immediately. You will not be allowed to attend any clinical experiences without having a current CPR certification. Failure to do so will count as an unexcused absence.
