I recorded this video a few months ago when I was enrolled in Elmhurst's new online nursing program. I wanted to review my experience at Elmhurst, and it's not all positive.
I don't remember what happened with the payment fees I was talking about in the video. The Zoom test changed into we didn't have to take group tests anymore. I think they did start letting some Chicago people do clinicals where the in person students do clinicals, though.
ABOUT THIS CHANNEL
My name is Abby, but I hope to soon become Nurse Abby! At 40 years old, I decided it was time for a career change. I'm going back to nursing school! I feel like many things lined up perfectly in life and our family, so I'm taking this opportunity to try something new.
My youngest daughter, Raelynn, has several medical complications. Among other things, she has epilepsy and quadriplegic cerebral palsy. As a result of being her mom, I've learned that I actually kind of enjoy the medical field. I've learned to use all sorts of medical equipment such as suction machines, shaker vests, nebulizers, etc. I've also taken care of PICC lines, given shots, dressed many wounds, and a host of other things. I've learned a lot of medical lingo along the way, so much that I've sometimes been confused for already being a nurse when I've been in hospitals with my daughter!
It's going to be a challenge to go back to school, but I'm determined to make it happen!
Subscribe to come along with me on the journey!

I went to IECC. I enjoyed it . I graduated in 1991 passed NCLEX and went to work at Barnes Hospital in St Louis. I loved my nursing school 😀

Glad you enjoyed it! I mostly liked Elmhurst, but there were just a few things.

Hi there! Thanks so much for doing such a video! I have a question if it’s okay to ask, how many times a week did you go to clinicals? Or overall, how often are the in-person classes ? Thanks again!
@NurseAbby

There weren't any in-person classes, but there were two times we had to go to Elmhurst for in-person training (once at the beginning, and once at the end of the program, for 3-4 days each time). The clinicals, you can arrange with your assigned clinical supervisor according to their work schedule. Each semester had increasingly more clinical hours required. If you space them out, even at the most demanding semester, I only had like 2 days of clinicals per week.

Not sure if you'll see this but I'm SO grateful you made these. Despite the flaws, I'm still interested & wondering if you think I could still go while living in New Orleans? Would I have to travel there? Or have clinicals in my area?

Sorry, it looks like Louisiana is not one of the states that Elmhurst works with. Try googling online ABSN programs in Louisiana to find something similar.

Yeah, I think they will eventually work out all these things, but it's just because it's so new.

Hi Abby! Love your videos, what was your class and clinical schedule like each week?
@NurseAbby
@NurseAbby 11 месяцев назад
Classes were on Wednesdays, usually afternoons/evenings. Clinical hours grew more and more as we got closer to graduating, and could be scheduled with your clinical preceptor (like a nurse supervisor).

Hi Abby. Now, that you are out working as a nurse, do you feel like the program prepared you? I am applying to the absn at elmhurst. It seems like a better fit for me than other programs in the Chicago area, but I’m not finding many reviews from former students. Did any of your former cohorts have issues finding RN jobs at Chicago area hospitals? Thanks!!
@NurseAbby
@NurseAbby 8 месяцев назад
No one had trouble finding a job. I don't think most nurses feel prepared for their first nursing job, but Elmhurst did just as good as any other school.

Did you go to the one in Illinois and did you go for Bsn or msn and was it all online?
@NurseAbby
@NurseAbby 7 месяцев назад
Yes, it's in Illinois, and it was mostly online. I had to go in person twice, and then also in person clinicals at various places.
