10 Best Bsn Programs In Omaha, NE (2022 Updated)

Writing a review for UNMC is an emotional task for me because they have been there for my mom and family through life, sickness, recovery, health, and even death. In all they've been there for they did right, without judgement or bias, and with care, hope, and support. I live in Kansas, but I know this hospital and all the towers better than some streets near my home. I've interacted with many specialty doctors, nurses, techs, housekeeping staff, ER, security team members, and so many others. We've experienced teams in Kidney Transplant, Wound Care, Cardiovascular, Cardiology, Ophthalmology, ENT, Derm, Cancer Center, and the Comfort Care Team. I can tell you that these teams are here because they love what they do. If you're considering UNMC as a new place to care for your needs I would do so without hesitation. When my mom moved they were so helpful in her transition to Kansas. Without them we'd be lost. We will miss each of her teams, their knowledge, and their care. It was so hard to leave.Tam E

Very disappointed in care provided. Nursing seems sorely under staffed. Although they frequently have cell phone in hand. Communication between staff (doctors and nursing staff)is lacking. Communication of providers and patients is insufficient. Facility is dirty dusty and run down. And should we talk about HIPPA….nothing to talk about….it doesn't exist there. Hep locks do not get flushed even after several days….negligent much? Showers/bed baths not offered to patient even after 3 days in-house. Are they trying for some nosocomial infections?S B

Today I went to Nebraska medical center and the eye clinic. The people that are very friendly and nice it's clean has three levels. The doctor I seen seem very knowledgeable and was very concerned with my eye condition it was funny when we first pulled up and parked in the first row there was a broom next to the handicap sign made me laugh remind me of handicap which parking. Someone probably had clean snow off their car with the broom and left it there.Karen Beautiful

This review is for the phlebotomy course at NMC, NMC's teaching, and my clinical experience. The course is broken up into 2 weeks in the classroom and 3 weeks in clinical rotation. I rate the classroom teaching as exemplary. Professor Di Lorenzo is passionate about what she teaches and very knowledgeable about phlebotomy and lab work, as she is an industry veteran. One would think that as a NMC student, being sent to Methodist Hospital for clinical rotation would be a good match, as the hospital and school are linked (students are sent to non-Methodist sites as well). There was no organized training program or trainer, thus no consistency. We were assigned daily to phlebotomists that were working the floor on that day. Overall I trained with at least 8-10 people. There were only 2 people I worked with where I sensed he/she trusted me, had patience, and was willing to demonstrate skills and answer questions, and treat me with general respect. Otherwise, I dealt with poor attitude, at times being abandoned by the trainer (where did they go?), and a general lack of interest in training and responsibilities that go along with it. The person promoted to the training coordinator position towards the end of our clinical rotation is a good phlebotomist. However unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised if this person's severe demeanor puts potential new employees off. During the time I spend with this person, I sensed I was being brow-beaten. I didn't feel welcome at Methodist Hospital as a student, and sensed the students were a burden to be dealt with. As a non-employee, one could also sense the malcontent between employees and management. Said management seemed to take very little interest in our training (i.e. asking how training was going, what our overall goals are, asking how did we did in classroom training, etc.). NMC is a great and reputable college and has a great teaching staff. The clinical portion, which is a large portion of the course, was a disappointment.Omaha Phlebstudent

I saw Dr. Taraschenko. I am 64 and have seen neurologists for 48 years. My file is complex. She knew everything. Great plan of action. Best doctor I have ever seen.John Schraufnagel

Judy Dunn In professional development is very good at what she does. She helped me solve a problem today that I thought was going to be ignored.Bri Castellanos

Horrible experience with DR. Sanjay Singh, M.D. Diagnosed me with Epilepsy and ruined my family and I's lives. We were forced to move out of state to get "actuall" medical care, would never reccomend Nebraska as a place to even set foot in for a busted wrist…it will cost you more than you would think.Emperor Caligula

Creighton School of Law and Creighton's Heider College of Business were excellent places to go in terms of getting my JD/MBA. The faculty and staff truly care about the success and education they provide to the students.Alex Fayad

I worked out at the KFC. This is a pretty small gym. I work out in the morning before school and it is sometime too full then. I do not even want to see it after school. It's probably way too packed.James Cantua

This school seems to have great academic programs. But I will say that it is not a very welcoming campus. As a transfer sophomore student, I have gone to many of the events to meet people but people are not welcoming. Many- not all- of the girls are rude and it's like no one knows the decency of a polite conversation. I will be staying at this school because of my program but the people here are stuck up, rude, and the school lacks helping new students fit in unless you are on a sports team. Screw people who are just here for academics I guess. Because they aren't going to have events that people can go to to meet people on their floor or who live on campus. Let's just say it is a very lonely campus and while I enjoy my classes, the people are stuck up and do not appear to have manners.Caroline Minnue

This school is horrible. They do not treat your kids fairly. They do not try to help them if help is needed by your child. They find every excuse to why they are not their for your child. This school is very disturbing to m e to think they call them a school THIS SCHOOL IS HORRIBLE THEY CARE ABOUT YOUR MONEY AND NOT THE STUDENTWynette Loyd

There is very little that can be said about Bryan College, at least nothing good. The academic culture mixed with poor management have diminished this program to a second rate center for education. Of course I am only pertaining to the nursing program, other programs may be fine and well, but the overall entity is still managed by the same group of inept individuals. Speaking strictly about the BSN-Nursing program: There always appeared to be some disconnect with the instructors and the students, as if the professors were almost burned out. I'm sure the professional burned was not helped with a vast majority of the professors focusing on ascertaining their own Doctorate in Education. Other professors, for a lack of better works, were just too old or incapable to changing with the times. It seemed that there would always be a technological issues or they teach from their own outdated point of views. literally not teaching the science of the practice, but sharing minimally applicable stories of the "good ole days". Bryan does a pretty good job of selling individuals on how they are Great and Wonderful, and that here we are all family! This only holds true if you if you a willing to sacrifice a majority of your own identity. You see, if you voice your concerns or professionally speak your mind- they will can make your educational experience hell. For example, I was in a clinical situation bearing witness to a medication being, it was not me who administrated the medication. Afterwards, I received an Unsatisfactory for the clinical week for asking my clinical instructor what ramifications would have ensued if I were to admin the medication under RN supervision. Furthermore, after each clinical week you a required to write a self-evaluation, providing your strengths and weakness, what you plan to do differently next week, and express any personal concerns that you had during your clinical experience. Not once, but three separate times I was reprimanded for voicing my concerns. Additionally, I would say that 50 to 60% of clinical experiences is extreme hand-holding and the clinical sites don't provoke much intellectual growth- as if the course of the day was not very well thought out. Classroom lectures were lack luster at best. The educators were rarely engaging, missed several key concepts needed for NCLEX, and boy-oh-boy did they love showing movies. I found that if you missed a class it really did effect you on the tests, you would have to learn the material on your own anyhow. The educators did a poor job of teaching at a higher level of quality. I would think for 20+K/year a professional should provide better education or at the very least prepare the students for their future careers. In summation of my own personal experiences: It is most certainly not worth the money, the education provided is substandard and you will have a strong sense of being prepared for saving lives. Lastly, a large majority of the individuals that attend the college are fresh out of high school, so if you can't deal with teenybopper gossip and drama that constantly encompasses the environment then I HIGHLY recommend looking into another college. At the end of the day all your employer really wants to know is that you care about your patients, your jobs, and every action that you perform is well thought-out and causes no harm AND not where you went to school! I hope this helps any potential candidates, its most certainly is not in favor of Bryan College of Health Science , but I can not in good conscience go without voicing my serious concerns. Take everything with a grain of salt, but understand that I am a nurse and know few things especially speaking from first-hand experience.colt hanny

After intimately researching over 50 colleges in the last year and a half, I found Bryan College of Health Sciences. Ranked 15 in the nation, last years graduates had a 100% pass rate on their ARDMS exams. I moved my family halfway across the country to attend this college. Why? Because I know that I will obtain my degree, with student debt attached. However, debt and a degree does not get you registered (or in some states licensed). You have to be able to pass your board exams. With Bryan's excellent pass rates, most of the time at 100%, I am confident I will be able to pass my board exams as well, and that is what is most important at the end of the program. I have already passed my SPI physics exam for sonography, the first time. Additionally, the college does not only accept low/high GPA students, and they do not turn away students who have transferring credits from another institution. I transferred in with a 4.0 cumulative GPA, with an exponential amount of transfer credits. The college accepts a whole host of diverse students. I made an excellent choice, and will graduate in two more semesters! Go Bryan!Lawrence Garcia

All five stars reviews are NOT trustworthy since they are a private business school. It sounded like the front of registration has no idea what she is talking about. I spent so many hours to complete the registration process and emailing back and forth FOREVER with the unorganized person. It sounded like I got the acceptance already, but they just flipped with no proper explanation. In my opinion, this school does not want to accept the transfer students who have already earned some university credits for the general studies. They accept mainly someone who has a low GPA with NO TRANSFER CREDITS from any institution and willing to pay FULLY the $600 X 120 credits. Overall, this school for someone who has a LOW GPA and never taken any classes anywhere, and ready to waste $80,000 to this VOCATIONAL SCHOOL. Don't waste your time and $$$. You can not transfer any credits from this school when you decide to go to MSN after graduation.S W

I like the small class sizes and the professor's are pretty great! Technology is why I gave three out of five stars. NWU is way behind in technology.Jacob Smith

Nebraska Wesleyan University enrolls approximately 2,100 from multiple states and countries which makes it the ideal sized university.Eric Aspegren
