The nursing program admits students once a year. Applications are accepted beginning March 1 for the following fall quarter. Clinical experiences are scheduled during the morning and evening shifts. Some nights and weekends may be scheduled in order to gain specific experiences. Travel to Othello, Tri-Cities, Ephrata and other sites will be required.
Students are responsible for their own insurance for injury and illness.
Insurance is available through Big Bend Community College. All students are required to be dressed in the official BBCC nursing student uniform or appropriate lab attire while in the clinical situation. The uniform is to be kept clean, presentable, and within the regulations of the cooperating institution. Attendance is not optional. Students must follow all rules and regulations of the clinical facility.
