FSCJ Summer 2013 Nursing Students

Published

Hi everyone, well I'm starting this convo so we all can get an idea of who, what, when, and where with FSCJ. Good topics would include testing materials, the average ranking of points for the upcoming term, and any other useful ideas that will help us all get into to this crazy hard nursing program! :) So, lets see if we can help each other out....and it's kinda fun to talk about nursing as well :)

I have a copy of all those immunizations when I received them but from what I am understanding we need actual labs copy's of titers to prove that we are immune right? I just want to make sure I need both. Does anyone know?

Yes, we need the titers to prove the immunity. At least that's how I understood it. That way we know if we need a booster :)

Went to the Take Care Clinic in Walgreens at Old St. Augustine Rd & 295 today. Their prices are as follows for those without insurance:

$31.99 flu vaccine

$63.99 Tdap

$28.00 for TB testing

Physicals are $60

I don't know if they would be willing to order titers or how much they would be at the lab but I hope this helps a little for those looking at pricing for shots.

For all your immunizations, physical, and titers call Century Testing. I had mine done there 2 years ago for scrub tech and they were the cheapest. I think $235 for everything and I had to get my Hep B shots. I am still waiting to find out if I'm in the program or not. Good luck to everyone.

Wow, I never thought of Walgreens or CVS? That's very cheap. Thanks Lucy! :-) I only need a physical and MMR titer...thank goodness. My work took care of the rest. I guess we take the physical form with proof of immunization records with? So the doc can write it off as being one? Idk.

I need to get a titer.... Any suggestions? I'm not sure if they do that at CVS or WG? Thanks! :D

If they can't do it at Walgreens any primary care doc can order the titers or they can write you a lab slip and you can go to Lab Corp or Quest to have that drawn=)

For those who got an acceptance letter, what were your points?

If anyone who got accepted is a military dependent you can go to medical on base and have both the lab work and immunization a done as a walk-in and it's all covered under tricare. I had mine done this morning just waiting for my physical appointment next week :)

Kristin I still haven't received either an acceptance or denial letter how about you.

I only had 206 points but I know a lot of girls had much higher points then I did. I think I remember seeing a girl who had 204. I hope that helps=)

We both got accepted with our 204 and 206. =)
