Huron Road School of Nursing...


Hi, I am considering attending this school. However, I am a bit concerned about safety issues in traveling there. It seems it's in a high crime area, and I'm looking to do the E/W program.

Anyone have any insight into this? It seems like a great program, but I am worried about driving home from there alone at night. Am I worried for nothing or should I be worried?

Thanks!

The area in general is not the best. However, you will do just fine, Huron is apart of the Cleveland Clinic so they have 24 hour security as well as East Cleveland police on site 24 hours. If at any time you feel unsafe just look down the hall in ask either a security guard of police officer to walk you to your car. I haven't heard of anyone that works there say anything bad about leaving or coming into work. You will do just fine!

Thank you! I did attend a group interview session, and when driving out I felt concerned by the area and wondered about it at night. But I also have not heard anything negative from people attending. Do you know anything more about the program itself? What it's like?

Thanks so much!

We get students from there for obs and they seemed well prepared Honestly, any of the big hospitals are in bad areas, I've been in the "ghetto" for 23 years and have survived LOL

Thank you, ohiocleveland. This is a second career choice for me, so I feel a bit nervous. But I managed to pull through all the prereq's already so that was a big thing for me. I already have a degree so I would just do the nursing courses at this point. I hope that'll at least make it more manageable.

It may be in a bad neighborhood, but it is safe there, but then again its not safe no matter where you go. If you do attend the school, they do have security to walk you to your car. Also leave in groups or with one other school mate. Over all it is pretty safe there. They do have a reputation to uphold. If there was a problem the school would not be there.

Thank you! I appreciate your reply. I was thinking the same thing, leaving in a group. I'm hoping I get in for the Fall. I didn't do my group interview until rather late and so I don't know if there are any spots or not left in the evening class. We'll see. Thanks again!
