Program Helps Medics Become Nurses

DULUTH — Military medics now have a path to more quickly become civilian nurses in Minnesota with a program that takes advantage of their experience.

Lake Superior College’s new seven-month program provides the education needed for current and veteran military medics to work as civilian licensed practical nurses in Minnesota. The Military Bridge Medic-to-LPN Program is the only program of its kind in the state, said Deb Amys, director of nursing programs at Lake Superior College.
