CPNE DATE

Hello

I received my CPNE date today. It is February 11-13 in Mansfield, Ohio. Is anyone else testing there on that date? I am excited but very nervous when I seen that date in my email. Can anyone give me any feedback that has tested at this site?

Thanks

Tonya

    i tested in mansfield on october 1st. i was really suprised at how nice and supportive the ca and ce's were. i really enjoyed it (after i passed and could breathe again). most importantly...know your critical elements and stick to your grid. good luck!!

    Check out what people have to say on the EPN on the EC website.

    I passed in Mansfield 9/24-9/26. The CA and CE's were great. The facility itself is very nice. Can't say much about the nursing staff as I had almost no interaction with them. I can't compare it to other sites as I only took the CPNE once, but I don't regret taking it there.

    The city of Mansfield itself, however, is a little scary. Everyone there looks like they're on meth. :uhoh3:

    I passed in Mansfield in June 2008. I never got out into the city of Mansfield ... when I passed, I got the heck outta town! LOL. I also can't compare it to other sites as I passed the CPNE on my first attempt, but I felt the CA and CEs were professional and very good.

    I also took my CPNE in Mansfield in May of last year. I enjoyed it! The CE's and CA were very enthusiastic for us to pass.

    I never ran into bad townspeople. Everyone at my hotel was nice and the fast food places we visited were also friendly. Went to the Wal-Mart twice for small items and the people there were nice as well. I was also on the road home Sunday before others had finished with their pt.'s, so I didn't stick around either.

    GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!! Know your critical elements and you will do fine!

    Where did you guys stay at? I saw that they recommended the holiday inn and suites and that we were to tell them that we were a excelsior student. Is it cheaper here?

    Thanks, Tonya

    I stayed at the recommended hotel -- I think there was a special/lower rate. It was a decent place, and they gave us little "welcome" bags with fruit and bottled water and muffins in them. :) They know we're there for some stressful stuff, so they try to make it a nice stay for you.
