Hello All, Former grad of VEEB here class of 2001. I would recommed this program to anyone. I had a great experience there. Since it has been almost 10 years already. In a nutshell. the program is 1 year. I attended school from 8a-1p. The hours sounds great but don't expect to keep your job, you make up the rest of the time studying. It is very fast track. In order to make it you have to commit yourself to school for that year, no if ands or buts. I had alternating one week of class and one week of clinical. Every week we had an exam. This is why you are constantly studying. I know it sound tough but you were only tested on one weeks worth of material at a time. I think that was great. There was no BS they basically said this is what you need to know, study it and it will be on the test next week. It's either you know the material or you fail. When I went to take my boards I really felt confident in what I learned, this same confidence was there when I started my first job, I wasn't scared or nervous. VEEB has a sister school Helene Fuld College of Nursing in Harlem. That is also a 1 year ASN program (prereqs included) Most VEEB grads go there to get there RN. Good luck to you all!!

good luck !!! keep studying

I live in Ocala and there are some nurses who are doing the 1 1/2 hour commute to go to this school. It must be a good school. I am thinking about it but I would be doing the commute myself. But if you think about it 15months. I think it would be worth it. right now I can't relocate, because my husband has a steady job and we are going to have to depend on that while I attend school. The schools out here want you to jump through hoops to get it. It is good to know that they are strict on attendance before I make this decision.

LPN looking to advance to my RN. I presently live in FL but am from NY I attended HFCN in NY where I started my bridge but did not get to finish. Now I live in central FL and these schools out here want you to jump through hoops to even get enrolled. I am looking for a fast track program in FL. I did see some schools that offered AAS and some that offered ASN. what's the diff? Can anyone recommend a school where I don't have to offer up my first born to become an RN?

At 30gtt/min with a drop factor of 20gtt/ml will give you 1.5ml/min 1.5x60 will give you 90ml/hr. Infusing 500ml@ 90ml/hr. 500 divided by 90 = 5.5 to infuse. The IV has already been running for1.5 hours 5.5-1.5=4
