Malpractice Insurance

There is a blanket insurance policy for all students paid. The cost
is split evenly among the students. This year it is $16 and students pay the
department directly.

Physical Exams and Immunizations

Lois Borchers RN-CFNP(707) 538-8922

Lois is pure inspiration. Try to get her to share a little with you about her life as a nurse. I guarantee that it will be a valuable lesson. Lois (who was a nun at the time) ran a health clinic for the very poor in the back country of Brazil. She charges $25.00 for physical exams for nursing students.

Tel: (713) 782-9041 Fax: (713) 782-8123 E-mail: hmint@flash.net

I ordered from this company and received great service. They did exactly what they said they would do, and they were at least $20.00 cheaper than any of the other companies I checked out. Their web site can be found at:  www.hmint.com  You can order online, or by fax, if your using a credit card, or you can pay by  money order through the mail. There is a plethora of information regarding the different types of scopes, comparison guides, etc. on their web site. Also, I called Littman (the manufacturer) and verified that the company was an authorized distributor of their products.
