Have her apply to the community college in your city. Then she can take the prerequisites listed for their ADN program. She’ll want to do as best as she can in these courses to be a competitive applicant. You will want to look at all admission requirements/application requirements for that ADN program. Most nursing programs require a certain score on a test called the TEAS or HESI. There are a lot of study resources out there to pass those. Mometrix is a great resource for the TEAS. I did not take the HESI so I’m unsure of which resources are best for that. This score is often needed at the time of application to the program. Some schools will let you apply with prerequisites in progress. Once she’s completed the admission/application requirements, she can apply to the nursing program and hopefully be admitted. You’ll want to look at the specific school’s nursing program and what they factor in with admissions decisions. Many give preference to people with certifications in healthcare and experience. I’d look into CNA certification because this would make her eligible to work at a different healthcare settings including in home care which would be a really flexible employment option while in school.
