Published

Hey guys, Im new to this website and need some info ASAP.I will be relocating to the Phoenix area and am considering employment with Maryvale. I don't know much about this hospital, but have read some past forums. In the forums that I did read I saw something like " Maryvale / Scaryvale??? PLease PLease ellaborate! I got offered a position there recently and have NOT accepted the postition yet but am considering it. I am a new grad and feel that in my position the first year out of nursing school is very very critical. The position is in the ED. I also am a Paramedic, if there are any EMS personnel that are also nurses : please let me know what the ED is like and and how well overall is patient care is. I am really excited about the move and was very excited about a possible position in the ED, but I really want to be informed. So please ellaborate on Maryvale/Scaryvale??? :up::down::confused:

Continued.......... I got a sticky finger. like you couldn't tell from this thread! N-E-Ways.I am more excited about my actual move to Arizona than My NCLEX results( O.K. so very close!). I have wanted to move to Arizona for about 6 years and will finally be there this Tues. I am from the north but have been living in the south for the last 3 years , the south wasn't for me. BUT I will now be a Westerner!!

To get back to the whole Spanish speaking thing I don't fore-see a huge problem with that I grew up bilingual but I do need to work on my Spanish Medical Terminology! It's getting tweeked!

On a side not--if any one has a dying desire to let me know anything about my move please let me know!! Thanks again everyone:)

Thanks! I'm going to check that website out. I'm still trying to adjust to the time change! Hopefully I can find activities for our son and also for my husband and I.

For the few natives ( I am one) we call it scaryvale because of all the shootings and stabbings. It is a scary place and I would NEVER go there alone or unprotected. As for the hospital, thats where they go until they get transferred to a Trauma hospital. It isn't pretty

I just finished a clinical rotation there and I loved it! I loved it in the ICU I would apply there but they dont offer tuition reinbursement so they would not be my first choice.

Does anyone know if Arizona allows GN's to work prior to NCLEX?
