You will be fine. I believe I work for the same or a similar company. I am also a new grad. I do not aspirate, as this is not required. Also for geriatric and peds patients I bunch up the muscle as not to hit the bone. I also ask the patient to r...
yes the pp was correct about applying online after the extern fair. Yes, the flyer was on the website about a month prior to the summer open house. The open house was in March and the externship started in late June.

Thank you all for your prompt responses! It really helped solidify my confidence that I made the right choice that will best benefit my career. Yes, we planned to give birth right after graduation to allow time with the baby and time for a job sear...
