Fredericksburg/Medicorp/Germanna Nurses?

Published

Specializes in L&D.

I am just starting nursing school, but in a short 18 months I will be entering the work force. Even though I've lived in the F'burg area for quite a while and Medicorp is one of, or possibly the largest employer in the area, I don't know much about them.

Anyone work for them who can give me the low down?

I'm in the Commonwealth Nursing program through Germanna, so any nurses who got their AD there, please feel free to share opinions. Thanks!

Specializes in PICU.

I'm interested in any information also, as I am thinking of relocating to the Spotsylvania/Fredericksburg/Stafford area after graduation. Anyone know Mary washington Hospital starting new grad pay?

Pure..

Hello you are in luck today... I'm actually graduating from the traditional ADNS program in May. Now about MediCorp I've been there a few years and I like the hospital a lot. I've been taking care of from flexibility, to tuition reimbursement without owing them any time. I enjoy working there its a good hospital, good people, comfortable environment, they take care of their employees, and others whom I have talked to (travel nurses) who've been to plenty hospitals says that it is one of the nicest hospitals they have worked in. I will work there also when I graduate in May. If i'm correct New Grad pay last year was $24.50. Considering all things thats pretty good, southern VA some areas start at like 18 19.

Regarding the commonwealth program. I have some friends in the program. Of course your gonna have to bust tail to take care of business, but other then that, I haven't heard anything bad, you just gotta take care of business, and don't be a slacker. Also, there is not as much assignments and randomness as there is in the traditional program; however, the traditional program was good the nonetheless.

Toodles. :up:
