  1. YRMC in Yuma

    I, too, am curious about YRMC. I have been looking on their website to see if I could get any good info about living/working there. I love the fact that it's not too far from the Sea of Cortez!
  2. I live in Indiana and interviewed at both Duke and WakeMed with a fellow nursing student. We were excited about both the GEMS program and the Nurse Fellows program and were able to tour both. I will say that with WakeMed, you have to follow-up wit...
  3. Any Aug 2008 New Grads Out There?

    I applied to WakeMed in January and never got a call back, either. I called their office because I was going to interview at Duke in the first week of March and had not heard back from them. (I was traveling from far away and wanted to secure as ma...
  4. UNC Nurse Residency Program

    I requested an application packet for there residency program. It's sooooo long! Also, they are very particular as to who can get into the Critical Care area. I believe they require some experience before you can get into that pathway. Other prog...
  5. SOOO over it!

    I graduate in May, as well. I gotta say this semester hasn't been so bad! I am kind of enjoying it, actually, because it's been distracting me from the crazy problems I have been facing in my personal life! Also, the idea that in two and a half mor...
  6. Entitled Generation

    I have worked nights for many years in the hospitality industry and have really liked it. When I began having children, I found that schedule not to be very conducive to family life, but you do what you gotta do to get the bills paid. I will be gra...
  7. MommyToZion: Congrats! I have an interview in March with Duke's Durham Regional Gems Program. Did you accept and what area will you be in?
  8. Glen Beck's hospital experience

    If you watch the video, it seems he was pretty traumatized. I actually feel bad for the guy and I think his world was rocked when he came face to face with his own humanity. My father had a very similar experience in a local hospital while in the I...
  9. No Motivation To Study For NCLEX

    you're not bad. may be a little burnt out...but aren't we all??? still, i would encourage you to study, even if it's 50 questions/day. imho, a little something is better than nothing. besides, the learning isn't over! this is only the beginning.....

  13. Feeling non-productive

    Jules A..."and kind of lazy! OMG am I actually ready for winter break to be over and classes to start again? I've only had 1 day off since finals due to work but without having to study like a lunatic I feel like I'm slacking. Its probably because...
  14. Postpartum Depression Screening

    We have a Life After Delivery Book that we give all moms when they arrive to Mother/Baby Unit. As part of our discharge teaching requirements, we education them on signs/symptoms of PP depression and give them a phone number they can call if they ar...
  15. Epidurals/Tatoos

    When I was in labor with my first child, my anesthesia provider refused to administer an epidural because I had a tattoo in this region. He finally did so, after lots of discussion. (I honestly think he was ticked off because he had to wake up from h...
