East Metro Detroit SICUs

[Alexandres]

Hi All,

I am interested in finding out what are some of the larger Level 1 trauma hospitals in the east suburbs. I'm pursuing my ADN at Macomb Community College (hopefully starting next fall). Just curious as to what my options are in the eastern suburbs.

I'm also curious as to which hospitals with SICUs in this area have contract options for school tuition that you guys may know of.

Thanks!

Alex

The assest test was a joke IMO anyway.... reading, writing...... none of that tells them how good of a nurse I will be - it only means that I am literate.

Yes, the ability to communicate effectively has been so overrated, particularly in the practice of professional nursing. :uhoh21:

And your point is...??

That an attitude is more effective??

Thanks Jenny! I didn't know exactly what the hesi test entailed. Enjoy your spring break as well. I am not exactly "relaxing." I am trying to stay ahead of the game so I will continue studying my butt off this entire week so I am ready for Monday. It's good to hear from someone who has already been through it. Take care

Sonia~ Let me know how hard the classes are. What is the time that you start and end? The HESI test has me worried because you have to know anatomy. Which means i have to take the Anatomy class before i can take the Hesi test. A 6 credit hour class with probably a $100 book... so in other words, a $600 class just to take a test. And if i fail, than i took anatomy for nothing. If i fail the test this year. than i can't take it til 2005. and than i can't start if i make it til 2006. i'm already 24. i don't think i have the patience to wait that long. i would love to go to St. Clair county community college. I went to school there in 98 when i lived in Algonac. But now i live in St. Clair Shores, i'd have to pay out of district and it would be a long drive there. I have to already try and make up some plans about gettin my son to school and stuff if i make it for the 2005 class. i don't know how i'm gonna do it. i'm so worried.

jenny~ let me know how the HESI test went. i won't be taking it til around Feb 2005. so let me know how it was, if you can rememeber. thanks!!
