Georgia Perimeter College

Hi,

Can someone please clarify for me if the nursing program with Georgia Perimeter College demands that you attend 2 campuses to complete the program? I have been told that coures are offered at both the Clarkston and Dunwoody campus and that you have to attend both in order to graduate? Doesn't the Clarkston campus offer everything you need to graduate? It would be hard to go between both of them due to the distance and traffic. I want to live close to the campus where I will attend and it would be hard to do that if I have to go to both campuses. Thanks!

Miss TT can you tell me what some of the clinical hours are? And what are some of the hospitals?

When I was in the program (Spring 2009 - Spring 2010) this was my clinical rotation schedules:

Fundamentals- 7am-3pm, Thurs & Fri

Med/surg 1 - 7am-3pm, thurs & fri

OB - 7am-7pm, thurs

peds- 1pm-9pm, thurs & fri

pysch - 1pm-9pm, weds & thurs

med/surg 2 - 80 hrs with a preceptor (to be scheduled with preceptor's schedule), 80 hrs with instructor usually 7am-7pm once a week.

clinicals can be at Gwinnett Medical, Dekalb Medical, Wesley Woods, Rockdale Medial, Children's Healthcare. I can't think of anymore right now

simulation lab 8 hours for every class except med/surg 2 - 16 hrs.

community activity 1 day each for peds and med/surg 2. that is when you go into the community (high school, senior citizen center, college campus) and teach about various health issues (diabetes, hypertension, cancer, etc)
