Broward College Nursing May 2014

Published

Hey there! This is a tread for anyone trying to get into the May nursing program in Broward College. Have you guys completed everything we need?

I still have to take my HESI and I am half way done with the Health Core class. I am so nervous. I am still not completely sure on how BC does the admission criteria, but I have high hopes.

Leave anything below. Lets help each other out :)

Specializes in Critical Care.
About this, I noticed that CEUfast's TB/OSHA/Hepatitis courses only add up to five hours, but North's info letter says six for those three. Do they not mind that missing one hour? These are the pages I found for those courses, I could have the wrong one of them:

https://www.ceufast.com/course/osha-occupational-exposure-to-blood-borne-pathogens/ - Says 1hr

https://www.ceufast.com/course/tuberculosis/ -2hrs

https://www.ceufast.com/courses/viewcourse.asp?id=259&nurse-ce-course-title=Hepatitis+C%3A+Beyond+the+Basic%3A+Understanding+Hepatitis+C - 2hrs

These right?

you can do classes at CEUFast.com but their breakdown for courses has different names and hours for some

Aid/HIV 4 hours

Domestic violence 2 hours

Prevention of Medical Errors 2 hours

Hep C: Beyond the Basic 2 hours

Infection Control and Barrier Prec. 4 hours

Tuberculosis 2 hours

Osha: Exposure to Blood Borne Pathogens 1 hour

I brought these certificates to the Nursing Dept on Central and the Executive Assistant reviewed them and said they were the right ceu's

South said you can use the dansko professional clog. It has a back. I saw lots of girls wearing them. Those are all white but you have to break them in. When in doubt, ask. :) the uniform store is the only place I found all white.

Ok, well thats the difference then. If they have a back, that's fine. But actual "clogs" dont have backs, or just like the little strap on the back, which some people mistakenly buy. Are those things really that comfortable?? I mean they have to be right? EVERYBODY has them. And they're sooo expensive!!! I think i'll just find some all white sneakers somewhere :p

I really want a pair of all white Nike Shox all leather. Every website I try is out of date. Anyone have any idea where I can purchase them from?

Does the lab work get sent directly to the school? I didn't get a drug screening receipt...how do I get it?

Does anyone know if we can use the nurse mates "dove"? They are all white but have a tiny blue heart on the sides.

The uniforms are the same at every campus right? Because I'm going to central but I bought my uniforms at south

uniforms are the same at all campuses.

dove shoes are fine.... But those clogs with straps are not allowed.

For the drug screen you just turn in the tiny slip they gave you.

The school sent you to quest diagnostics right? When your going home they give a tiny piece of paper with your name etc on it that's your receipt

Sent from 'her' iPhone using allnurses ???

Hey all, where did you get your BLS done? I just looked on BC's registration and there are no openings. I am really stressing out over this. I am registered on CEUfast.com where I am doing Domestic Violence, HIV/AIDS, and Prevention of Medical Errors, and I also signed up for the TB/OSHA/Hepatitis class from BC but that doesn't seem to start/become available until 4/28. Depending on which campus I decide to go to, that is cutting it really close with deadlines. Any help from you guys would be really appreciated.

When you took the TB/OSHA/Hepatitis at BC, did you get to print the certificate right away? Or how soon did you get your certificate?

As soon as you finish and pay you could print them.

That was not my experience? I took the course through BC and they called me 2 days after I finished and told me that my certificate was ready to be picked up. I stopped by today and got it.
