Allied Health and Physical Education Department 

Welcome

Here's to your health...and to your success in the healthcare field! At SFCC we offer three programs in the healthcare field.  Our successful Associate Degree Nursing Program launched a completely revised curriculum fall of 2006. This bi-level curriculum meets the requirements for the Practical Nursing Certificate at the end of year one. Students successfully completing year one may continue on to year two without having to reapply. An advanced placement option remains for current LPNs desiring to complete an associate degree.

Graduates from SFCC nursing programs have been serving the community's needs for over 30 years and have outstanding placement with 95 to 100 percent finding top-paying jobs. The SFCC bi-level Associate of Applied Science Degree in nursing is approved by the Missouri State Board of Nursing.

Radiologic Technology is the second degree offered at SFCC in the healthcare field. The first class of students graduated in May 2005 and successfully completed their registry exams. These students all found employment or they are persuing a bachelor's degree.

Our third allied health program is the Dental Hygiene Program. This program also has successfully placed their first graduating class.  Dental Hygiene students enjoy small classes with an instructor ratio as low as five to one in some courses.

Click on the links at the left for more information about each program. Each program requires its own application for admission in addition to the SFCC Application for Admission. Please see the Applications page for additional information about how to apply to each program. 

The department also offers courses related to physical education to fullfill the wellness requirement for the Associate of Arts degree. These courses challenge a student and give them tools to improve their health.
