• I have had great learning experiences from all of my first and second semester

instructors, especially Mandee Magno. She has an amazing and humorous way of teaching that makes the course info stick!

• I felt well prepared for this clinical, and felt I benefited greatly from almost all of

the sites I went to.

• I don't believe grades should be based just on exam averages. I am horrible at

taking exams and struggle with keeping a 80%, but overall I have a 93% in the class as a whole. So should I fail a class just because I don't have an 80% exam average, but otherwise would pass with an A?

Comments:

• The community sites that I attended were great for shadowing/observing the skills of a nurse in each specific area, but we weren't allowed to do much "hands-on" learning. However, it was very beneficial to observe numerous sites to see where personally as a nurse I found my greatest interest. The Labor and Delivery 4th floor at Aurora Hospital was my favorite thus far.

Comments

• Financial Aid does NOT work very hard to help students like myself be able to

remain in the ADN Full-time Program, and because I'm a 39 year old divorced mother of two who has attempted to get a degree at NWTC over the years, now that I am a successful nursing student in dire need for financial aid, I am denied because I am over my credit limit, which includes credits back from 1993. To me, this policy is absurd and it really shows a negative side of NWTC's financial aid department and the many students that they turn away. It is disgusting.

• The students who teach for the academic coach need to know about the topics

that are being talked about. We can all read the PowerPoint ourselves, but a little more in depth/different way of explaining things would be a lot more helpful than just reading from the PowerPoints.

prepared for the most part, however in specialty departments it can be very busy and I think more emphasis should be placed on time management skills.

Looking at the last employees hired in this

role what attributes stood out?

• Pathio/physiology knowledge.

• They were very prepared and had a basic knowledge of how to perform a certain

field.

• Self-sufficient and knowledgeable.

(94)

What are challenges impacting this field?

• Medication knowledge.

• Ensuring that LPNs in general are working within their scope of practice.

• Specialty departments such as Plastic Surgery- Urology - etc. are typically very fast

paced and busy departments and I don't feel the students are prepared for the different work flows and patient variety and demands of the specialty

departments.

(95)

Looking toward the future what are the

industry trends?

• LPN/RN for primary care re design that are able to follow protocols in care of the

patient.

• LPNs will be needed for technical skills and assist in care coordination. As each role

works to the capacity of their scope, they will need to have more of an understanding of quality metrics, care coordination, etc.

(96)

How could the PN program be modified to better

prepare students for a career in this field?

• Incorporate more education on ambulatory care issues and ideas as discussed

above.

Do you have any other suggestions or

comments regarding this program?

• Please have these staff prepared in daily organizational skills ;medication/drug

Tell us what you know about what NWTC is

doing for student success?

• Nursing tutor, help groups.

• Implemented study groups, multiple class time choices for flexible scheduling, online learning.

• Tech Connect

• I think it's nice that you have a continuing Education for IV placement and Clinic LPNs to

teach EKG, phlebotomy and various other things we learn on the job. It would be nice to have some sort of EPIC training class because all of the major health systems in the area use it now. I think adding sterile tools used for procedures would also be beneficial to LPNs that want to work in a Clinic. That is definitely something that was hard to learn going in new. There are many minor procedures done in office such as colposcopies, endometrial biopsies, IUD insertions, Nexplanon insertions, toenail removal, skin lesion removal, Vasectomies, Incision and drainage of cyst. All wouldn't need to be tough, but at least knowing what the supplies were you need to gather by sight and name would be great.
