  1. Texas Tech University AGACNP

    I am, but they don't know yet if they will accept my experience. My last two years of nursing experience have been in PACU, and they don't seem to want to consider that as acute care. I had 6 months on a critical care unit as a new grad and that wi...
  2. Texas Tech University AGACNP

    One of the admissions representatives just told me yesterday that the admission for AGACNP is competitive. I think the program is becoming more and more popular each application cycle.
  3. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    I got an email saying I'm an alternate. I think that the fact that I was not enthusiastic about the contract or having to start from square one regarding patient care may have come across during my interview. Just wasn't meant to be! Congrats to t...
  4. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    I have not heard from SICU, either. They interviewed 60 and are picking 10-13, so every one's chances are not bad! Regarding ED, I received the same email last week about the next step/hiring manager, but have not received an email with interview da...
  5. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Yeah, maybe the email we got a couple of days ago was just for the first round of applicants. They will hire people up to a week before the residency starts. You're right... who knows!!
  6. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Dang it on the ER contract. I want to get my hands on it and read the fine print. How can they expect any nurse to be able to pay $20K if they need/want to leave. As I said, ridiculous. I mean, I understand it costs a lot to train new nurses, but ...
  7. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Anyone hear anything about the ED residency? I wonder if it has the same contract......
  8. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Did y'all get the SICU fact sheet? 3 year contract or $20k? Ugh. I think that is ridiculous.
  9. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Applying a couple of days ago might have been too late...... the email we received said that we only had 24 hours to accept an interview. But who knows!! Good luck!! I think I only submitted my resume, but I have experience. As a new grad, submit...
  10. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    Got an email a couple of hours ago. There are still no interview dates for the ER residency.
  11. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    SICU interviews are on September 10th and 12th.
  12. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

    I applied for the ER residency earlier this week. I received an email today asking if I was still interested in interviewing and that the start date is October 28th. That's all I've heard.
  13. Questions about Seton Versant RN Residency in Austin

    Yep, no October cohort... It's going to get harder and harder to find a nursing job in Austin!
  14. Parkland Residency's for January 2013

    There was a new grad open house/career fair at Parkland last year... I think I recall that it was around this time of year. A few of my classmates went and they were all called for interviews. That would be a good place to start!
  15. define break...lol

    I work on a critical care unit at a Level 1 Trauma Center. We are REQUIRED to clock out and go to the break room, cafeteria, or wherever for 30 minutes during our shift. They don't want us carrying our unit phones or pagers during those 30 minutes,...
