Nightingale College is a for-profit college, headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. The college offers four nursing programs, the Associate of Science in Nursing, the Bachelor of Science in Nursing, the Registered nurse-to-BSN Program], and the Master of Science in Nursing Education Program. The college has satellite locations in multiple states.[1]
History
Nightingale College was formed in 2010, and was originally "training students while seeking accreditation".[2]
In April 2011, the college began offering the Associate of Science in Nursing (ADN) Program. The following year, the college was acquired by Nightingale College, LLC, a private Delaware limited liability company that was formed by Palm Ventures, LLC., a private-equity firm.[3]
Accreditation
Accreditation Commission for Education (ACEN)
Nightingale College's associate degree Nursing Program is accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing[4] Inc (ACEN), formerly National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission, Inc. (NLNAC).
As of Spring 2016, the official status with ACEN is "Affirm Continuing Accreditation, Change Status to Continuing Accreditation with Warning", which is explained as a "Continuing Accreditation with Warning: A measure imposed by the ACEN Board of Commissioners following the determination of non-compliance with three (3) or more Accreditation Standards. Next review and follow-up action(s) are determined by the Board of Commissioners."[5]
In September 2019, Nightingale College had a "Continuing Accreditation for Good Cause", which ACEN defines as the "nursing program has not remedied deficiencies at the conclusion of its maximum monitoring period". ACEN found that "There is a lack of evidence that the expected level of achievement for first-time test-takers during the same 12-month period on the licensure examination has been met."[6]
Other accreditations
The school holds institutional accreditation by Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES),[7] and is approved by the Utah State Board of Nursing.[8] Nightingale College's BDN and RN-to-BSN programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE).[9]
Unlike other more established nursing colleges in the region, Nightingale College is not regionally accredited.[10]
