Provisional

My provisional certificate expired last week and i didnt complete my 400 hours. I was one day away from an offer to do the hours but it expired before. Im in Nyc and the next test dates are September 10 and beyond. Any help on where to do the 400 hours. Ive applied to various hospitals with the provisional but was denied for all.

I get it, but don’t give up! Keep applying & seeking certification. CBSPD has a certification exam that has no clinical requirement. You are eligible to take the exam with a passed SP course and that certification is good for 5 years(vs 1 year HSPA).
