What can be done?!?!

[Maladroit, BSN, RN]

Anyone know what can be done about a reputable college that has not given BSN seniors in their last semester their clinical placements as of the first day of an 8 week course? We are required to have 96 clinical hours. If we eventually do get placements...and they are for nursing homes...what should we do? Any help will be appreciated.

I would give them a little bit more time (if I understand you then you are worried because you did not get your clinical assignment on the first day). I know that with my school they have to "fight" for clinical space so maybe that is what your school is in the middle of. Can you call the nursing advisers and ask them what the hold up is and when they expect that you will know your rotations?
