    Show your school spirit! Which WV school are you attending or have graduated from? If you are already a graduated, which hospital/clinic/etc are you working in?

    I attended WVU, but I am now going to Fairmont State University for my ADN.
    Wish me luck, I hope to begin the clinical portion next fall!

    Thanks!

    Good luck on getting action on this site. I tried for quite awhile but was just no use.

    Hey everyone.

    I'm a 2nd year student at Southern WV Community & Tech College in Logan. I'm praying that I graduate May 2006. I've been externing @ Thomas some (actually very little) and mostly at Boone Memorial Hospital this summer. Boone is just minutes from my house and so convenient with gas prices being what they are. I'm really interested in being a L&D nurse but it's so hard getting a job in that area. I interviewed for an extern job @ CAMC for L&D but unfortunately was not chosen. They offered me a job in Peds (which was my 2nd choice) but I decided to work @ Boone because of the drive. Anyway.... I'd love to chat with you guys! So count me in.

    What is your extern position at Boone? I understand about the gas prices. I drive 30 mins to and from my college---those prices drain me dry! I hope that you will keep me posted on school and your job!

    I work on the floor (Med-Surg-mostly geriatric pts) and my job is like a CNA's job. This summer has really helped me with my communication skills. I use to get so nervous in clinicals just walking into a pt's room. Now I feel like I know what to do. I know as a nurse I will value my CNA's. I have learned they are your "eyes and ears". At Boone I can't really do anything invasive but I externed in the ER @ Thomas and I got to do Foley's.

    Are you working? What school are you going to? I start back on the 22nd. I can't wait to get this over with and start my *real* job. :chuckle Just 2 semesters to go!

    You are ahead of me! I am a pre-nursing student at Fairmont State (northern wv) Hopefully I will be admitted for next years class. My goal is to eventually be a FNP. I currently do not have a job in the healthcare field but I volunteer at Ruby Memorial. I use to teach art therapy at a retirement community. So is it your goal to work in L&D?
