Lacc Nursing Spring 2018

Hey there, no worries, I am happy to help! Just make sure to pass on the tips to your future classmates. There are pros and cons about the program. So far, my classroom teachers and clinical professor have been very caring, educational and supportive. Our class is cohesive and support and help one another. The cons is that the program schedule is a little disorganized and it can feel a bit overwhelming at times. Nothing to discourage anyone to avoid this school, you'll just learn to be flexible. So far, overall, I feel like the positive outweighed the negatives. Let me know if I can be of help with anything else. :)

Hello,

I am back with more questions lol.

Unfortunately, my titers came back today and it's showing that I am not immune to varicella. I know that you experienced a similar situation so I thought I'd ask you for help regarding the steps. At this point I know that I have to get the shot, but is that enough or do I have to also redo the titer?

Jess8780, BSN, RN · Dec 28, 2017

Hey there! I would go get the shot first and ask to see if there is a following series of shots or just one shot. If there is only one, I would show proof that I just received it, they should honor that. I think Varicella is ok with just the shot. I wasn't immune to Hep B, which is a big requirement when you're working in health care so I received the vaccine and then I repeated the titer. If you would like to be 100% sure, call the nursing department after the holiday and ask to see if the vaccine is enough. Let me know if i could be of any more help! :) Happy Holidays!

I received the vaccine on 12/26, now I have to wait 4 weeks for the 2nd shot. Hopefully everything goes well and this does not affect/hold me back.

Thank you for replying and answering all my questions :)

I was able to view my results the following day

Kami17 · Jan 12, 2018

Hey Nelly, thanks for responding and I got my drug test done 1/8 but I still haven't gotten anything. It says on the paper it might take 3-5 days but I just wanted to ask if anyone got it sooner or later than the 3-5 days.
