OPTION OVERVIEW<br />

This program includes 35 credits of nursing theory and clinical practice in health<br />

care facilities. NUR111, Nursing I, requires clinical practice six (6) hours per week.<br />

NUR112, NUR211 and NUR212, Nursing II, III and IV, each require clinical practice<br />

twelve (12) hours per week. Students must earn a grade of 78 or higher in all NUR<br />

courses with the exception of NUR100, in which students must earn a grade of<br />

80 or higher. Students who fail to meet either the clinical objective or the grade<br />

requirement of an NUR course fail that course. To ensure currency, credits for<br />

BIO203, 204 and 205 earned more than �ve years prior to enrollment in the nursing<br />

clinical sequence are not accepted. Note that there are many requirements<br />

that must be met for acceptance to the nursing programs. These requirements<br />

are spelled out in detail in the Associate in Science Degree: Nursing Program<br />

description preceding this grid.<br />

CRIMINAL OFFENDER RECORD INFORMATION AND<br />

EX OFFENDER REGISTRY INFORMATION CHECKS<br />

As a prerequisite for a clinical placement in the Nursing program, all students<br />

must undergo a Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) check and a Sex<br />

Offender Registry Information (SORI) check. These checks are required due to<br />

potential unsupervised contact with children, the disabled, or the elderly during<br />

a clinical experience. Students found to have certain criminal convictions or<br />

pending criminal actions will be presumed ineligible for clinical placement. The<br />

<strong>College</strong> is authorized by the Commonwealth’s Department of Criminal Justice<br />

Information Services, pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 6,<br />

Sections 167-178 B, to access CORI records. Sex Offender checks shall be<br />

performed pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 6, Sections<br />

178C-178P.<br />

For more <strong>info</strong>rmation regarding the <strong>College</strong>’s CORI/SORI check process, please<br />

contact the <strong>College</strong> CORI/SORI Of�cer at 617-228-2193.<br />
