First Week at Grady

I feel at home. I walk in everyday with a smile on my face and know I made the right decision for my career. From the physicians to environmental services, everyone is very pleasant and acknowledges each other. I have not had patient care experience on the floor yet, first two weeks is nothing but hard core training. But I am very excited and can't wait. So if anyone is thinking about working at Grady or is not sure, I am here to tell you Grady is a fantastic place to get your feet wet. Great staff, safe environment, advancement opportunities and the list goes on and on. If you have any questions, just shoot me a message or reply to post.

    I do not have my schedule for the third week yet. I'll be sure to let you know when I find out. I am really excited. Now of course Will there be days I do not feel like working? Of course, that's with any job. But the experience I gain cannot be matched. What area are you interested in?

    Primarily step down. I may consider ICU but I heard the learning curve is very steep.

    I think they may still be hiring for ICU. When do you test?

    Sept 6. Other than nursing school, I have no relevant hospital experience nor did I do the externship so the pessimist in me is thinking that my chances are very slim for consideration.

    If you have a strong customer service back ground, have a degree in another area, etc it can help your chances too. I am pretty sure there are people who are hired without hospital experience. When did you graduate?

    Hello all,

    I am using Ati, Saunders, Lacharity book and Nclex 4000. I'm too broke for Kaplan or Hurst.
