making up hours

Silverdragon102, BSN · Jul 27, 2010

Making hours up has to be with an accredited source and theory and clinical hours generally should be done at the same time. It may be a case of contacting local universities and seeing if they can help alternatively shop around the US and ask nursing schools if you can be a guest student to make certain hours up

hi

i have been there done it. dont bother with brighton uni as they only link up with o'grady peyton. and that agency is ****. i did not go through that route. and the route i went through is closed unfortunately. do you know what you require? generally it is roughly 25 hours in theory and rougly 40 hours in practice. i had enough hours in practice but lacked in theory and i made it up quite easily with someone on this forum giving me directions. however you may want to contact your own uni who might be able to help. i also called my uni and the course leader for mental health and child health were happy to offer me theoretical hours. however each case is different. so may be your own uni can be a start point.
