MCC Nursing student's physical

My insurance covered everything, but I heard some people talking about getting their vaccinations through the health department.

I don't recommend waiting until January to take care of it, because around your 4th week of 1530 you'll be doing a 1/2 day at one of the clinical sites. Your physical, titers, drug screen and immunizations MUST be done before this. The Hep B vaccine is the tricky part: you must have at least 2 of the three shots before being allowed to do clinical, and the first two shots are spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Of course, if you have already had the Hep B shots previously this won't be a problem.

Although you didn't ask, I will suggest ordering your uniform asap if you haven't already done so...we still had people who hadn't received theirs yet because they had to exchange them. They run tight so, unless you're a twig, order one size larger than the website suggests for the scrubs. The lab coat sizes seem to be pretty accurate. Good luck!
