Dameron Hospital Summer 2012

U.S.A. California

Published

Hello all; Has anyone heard from Dameron?

I think once all checks are passed, then the offer should be ready to sign.

October 15th can't come quick enough!! I am getting sooooo bored with not working or going to school!! What have you all been doing to pass the time???

Watching TV....LOTS of TV. I'm now almost done with Season 4 of Breaking Bad and I'm too embarrassed to say when I started watching it. Also I took up boxing lol. This past month has been the slowest month of my life and like you this whole no work or school is driving me craaaazy!! I'm counting down the days and hours till Oct 15th.

Random informal survey: I'm curious where everyone is from. I'm currently in Rancho Cordova (a bit over an hour drive).

Yep, that's totally me too. Watching TV all day and working out when I feel motivated- which isn't very often! LOL. I hate feeling like I have nothing to do, but I guess it's the calm before the storm! I'm sure we will soon be complaining about having TOO much to do and being pooped after our long days!

That is quite a commute for you! Do you know what shift you'll be working? Hopefully you wont hit traffic in the mornings. Right now I'm living in Tracy- about half an hour away- so it's not too bad of a drive.

I signed my contract to work night shifts do that will take some adjusting. I plan on moving closer as soon as I get a couple paychecks. First paycheck is already 100% reserved for the downpayment of a car. In less then a month I've already had to get my car towed to the mechanic TWICE!! I'm still driving my very first car, I think it's done it's time and time for a newer more reliable vehicle.

Less than 2 weeks left! I'm sure as it gets closer time will go by faster. I look forward to meeting everyone!

I'm totally there with you guys! I just bought a car - yes, with the help of my dad (borrowing money) so I know how you feel edithjg! My car wasn't about to make it either!

Now that time is going by faster, I'm actually getting pretty nervous but excited! I'm trying to enjoy life, appreciate the sunshine, the cool breeze, hanging with friends before I don't see them often...but I'm soo ready to hang up my apron and say bye bye to my housewife duties!

I'm from Sac-town! So I also have less than an hr commute also!

Looking forward to meeting you guys on the 15th! We should yell out our allnurses.com ID names in class and hug each other - we made it through the selection process!

Jealous!!! I can't wait to buy a new car!! I also still drive my very first car from high school, which happens to be a hand-me-down from my oldest sister so it's REALLY old!!! Haha. I wish I lived closer to you guys.. It would have been fun to meet up before we start!

I feel the exact same as everyone of you here!!!! Excited, nervous, eager....anxious.... :) can't wait to meet all of you . I'm from Ceres so way further from a lot of your residences. Can't wait!!!

I should have asked this earlier - but in open house, did they mention anything about if we need to be all prepared and ready to go? Or do they do reviews with us (lab results, common diseases, basic nursing skills...)?

I dont remember them mentioning anything at open house, but I would definitely brush up on the basics. You dont want to come off as being incompetent, and I'm sure our preceptors will be testing our knowledge!

CaliRN i knoww... that's something i needed to hear!

Just keeping you on your toes! ;) I know what you mean though...I have to keep reminding myself that I'm not a student anymore and I am officially licensed to work as a RN all on my own! And with Versant its hard to know what the expectations are since we're kinda like students, but we're also working as full-time RNs. I guess we will find out very shortly!

Oh, and I have a stupid question... we're supposed to wear scrubs monday, right? I just assumed so, but now thinking about it I'm not too sure since we won't be doing patient care or anything. I'm getting so excited!
