I attended Best Care College for LPN to RN program and I thank God I finished the program well with the help of best Professors, and the support of the administrative staff. I appreciate how Dr Florence Brown always tell us to study hard. At Best care, you need to study hard, know your stuff and be able to manage time very well. You cannot be a student at Best care and be lazy. The expectation of the school regarding student performances is very high, and the school is ready to help you through how to navigate your way through the program. Come to Best care to get the best education and earn your certificate. At best Care you have to do your part, and God will help you.

If you want to become the best nurse, Best care is the place to be. They will be tough on you, but it’s all worth it. You will be well prepared to take the Nclex and pass it on the first try. I finished my LPN-RN program, Class of 2021 and I don’t regret it. It’s a hard program, but you will be ready for the real world as a real Nurse.

My journey through Best Care College was tough but well worth it! I am a two time graduate of the College, first with my LPN and now with RN degree! The experience has prepared me well for the workplace and for any other institution of higher learning, for this I am grateful.

Having done my LPN here, there was no where else I believe could prepare my for my transition form LPN-RN. Here at Best Care college ive gained the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in my field. Kudos to Best Care and all the professors, especially Dr Florence Brown for preparing us well.

Best care college I will say it is a challenge but, they prepare you once you step out on your own, you will be ready to work as a nurse. I am happy I came to this school, best care pushed me to be the best nurse I can be.

Run away from this “college”. No organization whatsoever, no one has real and accurate information. They only want Haitian students so they could take advantage of them. You don’t believe me? Call them try to get Information, pay the “college” a visit and you will thank me later. How can a place like this be open and be called a college?? If you really do your research they are an INSTITUTE not a college.Be careful with the info you share with them as they will keep your documents such as Id and social security copies. They do not like to deal with Hispanics or “white looking people”. They are just horrible. Sad to think they are “teaching” how to safe and take care of lives. Stay away please.

If you work hard and do your part you will succeed at the end. Nursing school is not easy anywhere and this school is no exception by the time you graduate from this school you will be prepared to take your NCLEX but you have to do the hard work.

I have been all time student of Bestcare college. I did my CNA, and my LPN program at Bestcare. Now I just graduated from RN program class of 2021 at bestcare. I would say at bestcare its very hard but at the end you are professionally and emotionally prepared as a nurse in healthcare field.

This is a horrible place to attend school , the staff is dysfunctional the curriculum is crazy , giving you tests for 20 -25 chapters. they tell you a graduation date then change it in mid session, you have no time off all they want you do to is study for standardized exams that you fail and have to keep taking and paying to pass. Florence Brown the director is a greedy , wicked woman, the students cheat to pass.DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL YOU WILL BE SORRY!!!!!!!

Horrible school. Director is rude and very disrespectful. very disorganized management. All they do is charge you for a bunch of extra exams and treat you like an outcast. No heat in winter, no AC in summer in building. They add on money to your bill that you dont owe and charge you $2000 for registration . Highway robbery going on in that school. RUN RUN RUN

This is the most unorganized private institution ever!I went there to apply and the lady that attended to me was very hostile. She was rushing me because she wanted to go home.She took my documents to the principal’s office and then they switched the language to creole. Very unprofessional.

Very thankful to Best Care College for helping me achieve my dream of becoming a nurse. As with anything that is worth in life, you need to earn it..meaning that you must be willing to dedicate a lot of time to study.

Poor/unprofessional administration hence lots of inconveniences . worst private institution Ive ever come across. The Director thinks She is some god .They are only interested in your money. DONT WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME/MONEY.Its a NO star (0/5) for me.

This place will depress you for the time that you are there. please do not be decieved by the 5 star reviews. These reviews are probably bought. Do your homework before joining the school or else you are going to be disappointed. Furthermore, why go to Best care where you pay around 30k(yeah the tuition is 25k or so but theres lots of hidden fees) when you can go to Middlesex Vocational where the tuition is about 6k, no hidden fees, you get your 2 month summer break, the teachers are very professional and you will probably get out a better nurse than if you went to best care. To top it all, your chances of completing the MCVTS are better than your chances of completing the Best Care program.Best care is a private for profit school meaning they are only there to milk you. You education is not in their best intrest.Again, do your assignment before joining that school.

When I decided to Become a student at Best Care Training Inst, I was at a cross roads in my life! I didnt know if I should go left or right but, at the time all I knew is that I wanted to become a nurse! So from the first time I enter the school to take the admission testing I could see the professionalism in the staff at the institution. Dr. Fayette offered prospective students if they were having difficulties with math and English; that if they wanted there was free tutoring services offered by the school. The next, encounter was when I was called for and interview, from that moment on I knew that my dreams, were not my dreams but everyone at BCTI wanted me to succeed. As my journey began, it was almost a dream to truly see that I had director Mrs. Brown who took time every week to talk to student and really did care about our thoughts and concerns. My professors were all knowledge in the specialties that they taught, if I ever had a question I was not shy nor embarrassed to ask because we were not just students. We were viewed as individuals who all brought something unique to the profession of nursing. To all prospective students if you want a learning environment where you can grow, be challenged and none the less be treated as an equal I recommend BCTI! As, I am waiting to take my boards I know that I am going to pass because, my school challenged me and it brought out the best in me!

Im currently attending Lincoln Tech Lpn program and have never been to best care but i wanted to write a review based on what Ive been told. Its crazy that so many people had so many horrible things to say about a school, apparently the owner is extremely disrespectful to the students and yells, screams and belittles them, curriculum is a joke, and the owner nickles and dimes them to death.There are alot of students in my lpn program (15 in different quarters) who went to best care for cna and said they wouldve never gone back there for anything. To my surprise my class went to our clinical site and the lpn I was working with went to best care 10 years ago and had the same thing to say about the owner, she screams at the students, her staff, and her husband (who works there). Ive never ever heard of such a thing this place sounds like hell allegedly a pregnant woman came to inquire about attending and was told by the owner why are you here, you cant go to school pregnant, what do you think this is and turned that away, Im pretty sure thats illegal in this country... Im shocked this place is still open and Im grateful I didnt have the misfortune of going to best care

RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL AT ALL. THE DIRECTOR OF THIS SCHOOL IS A PROFESSIONAL THEIF SHE IS MONEY HUNGRY AND DOES NOT CARE FOR THE STUDENTS. ALL SHE CARES ABOUT IS MONEY THE PASS RATE FOR THIS SCHOOL IS VERY LOW PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH MANY STUDENTS DROP OUT OF THIS SCHOOL TOO AND THIS SCHOOL IS NOT ORGANIZED. LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR ANY SCHOOL THAT IS PROFESSIONAL AND IS WILLING TO TEACH YOU AND PROVIDE THE BEST HANDS ON TRAINING YOU DERSERVE DO NOT APPLY FOR THE LPN ALSO DO NOT APPLY FOR OTHER PROGRAMS IN THIS SCHOOL I HAD FRIENDS WHO DID THEIR CNA THERE THEY SAID THE SO CALLED INSTRUCTOR WAS A NIGHTMARE TO DEAL WITH BECAUSE SHE DOES NOT HAVE ANY PATIENCE TO TEACH HER STUDENTS FROM WHAT I HEARD SHE IS VERY RUDE DISGUSTING AND DOES NOT PROPERLY TRAIN THE STUDENTS MANY STUDENTS FAIL THE SKILLS TEST AND STATE TEST BECAUSE OF HER. SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE IT WILL BE WORTH IT TRUST ME THERE ARE WAY BETTER SCHOOLS THAN BEST CARE I WISH I HAVE LISTEN TO PEOPLE WHO WARNED ME ABOUT THIS SCHOOL.

I chose this school because it was started by an immigrant woman of color who worked her way up from a HHA to a NP, location (less than 10 min from my home) and reported above average graduation and NCLEX passing rates. I thought it would be much easier to get into an RN to BSN bridge program with an LPN certification through a 15 month accelerated program than it would be for me to repeat science courses I had already taken in the past. However, this program is anything but straight forward. The director is volatile, cruel and micromanages every happening from who mops the floor to who graduates. It is a for profit institution. The impromptu exams and clinical conference fees were endless. There syllabus changes from week to week. There is no academic or financial support staff. There is no online community or presence. There is no compliance officer. The simulation labs are either dated and or nonexistent. It is not a college but a training institute and your credits will not transfer to a college. It is not ideal for anyone who knows how higher learning settings should function. The professors are practitioners - not educators. The school’s graduation to NCLEX passing rates reflected online (85%) are inaccurate. Many people who start this program, do not finish it. My Level 1 class had 25 students enrolled on 12.19.2016. 5 students graduated on 3.3.2018. Best Care was a hard expensive lesson and a horrific experience. I would not recommend this program to any student nurse prospect.

I called to get some information and the lady on the phone was getting mad because I didn’t understand what she was saying yelling my thing is customer service and patients goes a long way accent was deep so that wasn’t my problemPeople come here and automatically think us Americans is lazy but yet what’s lazy of them to come to a place they barely know and start yelling at a person for not understanding what’s being said ..it’s mandatory for me in high school to learn Spanish and French shouldn’t be the same for the people that come to America 🤷🏾‍♀️

Review №41

This school deserves an F...doesnt stand for fantastic or fabulous. the place just got renovated but they are SUPER UNORGANIZED, students are always paying $40-$45 for exams you have to take on the computer, and no one knows why. Even if you have your 80% average for a level, that does not mean anything because you can still stay back or shell let you move on to start another level and when youre almost done, shell have you repeat it when another class. she always needs money. if you miss an exam, you have to pay $40 to retake it and it has to be a weekend. the Scranton machine is crappy, and they wont let you check your scantron to see what you missed after an exam, if you must see it then it has to be a weekend. They have a clinical teacher working for them, shes always drunk and doesnt know how to grade exams. im warning you DO NOT STEP FOOT IN THAT SCHOOL OR YOU WILL REGRET IT.

Run Run Run people my wife is a student at this school right now and its a nightmare. Everything is money they want u to pay $35 a month for parking if by mistake you forget your phone , handbags or anything else u have to pay the director $25 to have your stuff back. They not organized at all you go to school the directors sleeping home the schools gate close she forgot if the student had class that day plus they let yoi know things the last minutes. She doesnt care abt anything or anyone but she lovesss money. We also have a nerd that works for her very impatient always in a hurry because they dont want the students to ask them question because they never have they answer everything in this school you have to do it, they will not help you. Worst school ever stay AWAY STAY AWAYYYYY PEOPLE. Look for a better school and i do think the state of new jersey need to investigate them because i smell a rat. Google wouldnt let me write this review without giving a star but reality is the dont even deserve a star 0/1000Very very veryyyy bad school.
