I attended the Molloy College Refresher Course. They do clinicals at South Nassau in Oceanside and Mercy Hospital in Rockville Centre. I did my clinicals at South Nassau and got a job there. I didn't take the job for personal reasons, but I liked the program and the hospital. Adelphi University in /Garden City has the same type of 6 week refresher course. They use Winthrop for clinicals. Stony Brook Hospital has a program through the hospital-not the college. It is quite different. It is a preceptor program with tests. The other two are taught clinicals by teachers instead of preceptors. I was able to give meds in the Mercy Program under a teacher's observation. There is no med giving at Stony Brook, and unfortunately, a good program can be ruined by a poor preceptor. PM me if you want any more details. I am an island girl, so I don't know of any city refresher courses. The University of Deleware has an online program, but you would have to worry about getting your own clinicals. Let us know what you ended up doing, and please PM me for more details on my expereinces if you want to. By the way, being out for 5 years is Nothing. People came in being out 20-40 years, and they did well. Krisssy
