Teacher said NOWAY....new grad hiring into ICU positions - Page 3
Register Today!- Aug 20, '12 by Esme12Quote from Hopeful Nurse 2011I'd read the fine print. I have not seen a 2 year residency with an additional 2 year commitment. It would be unlikely any hospital would keep you on orientation for that long....it just isn't cost effective. What facility is this?In what way? I thought the two years was a bit much but that's what it says.
- Aug 20, '12 by happyinillinoisNot true. Fransican Alliance hires new grads into ICU's. 14 hospitals mostly in Indiana and a couple in Illinois.

RNs wishing to change specialties
The residency program only focuses on four nursing specialties: Critical Care, Perinatal Nursing, Emergency Care and Perioperative, and takes 24 months to complete.
Participants are asked to commit to working at Grady for 24 months once they complete the residency program. - Aug 21, '12 by funnywomanQuote from HopefulNurse2011That is wild. What happens if you leave after the first 24 months?Here is the quote from the hospital's website:

- Aug 22, '12 by Esme12Quote from Hopeful Nurse 2011Wow talk about captive labor! So if you go there your are locked in for 4 years. I would be very careful.....if they have to enforce to keep people they are either that good with their training program and you will gain a ton of knowlege.....or that bad that they have to hold you captive to stay.Here is the quote from the hospital's website:

Florida Hospital in Orlando charges $13,500 to be paid in full the next week if you quit or get fired while under their two year contract.Good question, I've heard some hospitals charge a fine. Its not my first choice at this point.

- Aug 22, '12 by funnywomanQuote from HopefulNurse2011Florida Hospital in Tampa charges $5000 fee. Orlando is almost three times as much. I don't get that at all. FL hospital considers that the cost of orientating a new grad.That's INSAANE!
