I've been reading through old threads about Lucile Packard's New Grad RN Nurse Residency program but couldn't find any info or threads about 2015. The application period just closed, who else applied? What unit are you interested in working? Any past cohorts of the LPCH new grad program willing to share their experiences? Anyone have any info about the program that they can share?
Phone calls for our group started later than listed and went on for 3 or 4 days. Versant is its own program separate from the hospital, so unfortunately I don't know their timeline.
Hiring is based on the the specific staffing needs of each unit, so it changes ever year. If it helps at all for us it was:
1 to 3N (acute care)
2 to 3W (cardiac acute care)
1 to NICU
4 to PICU
4 to CVICU
2 to Post Partum
4 to Heme/Onc
2 to PACU
These tend to be the units that consistently take Versants, although PICU is going through a change in management currently so I don't know how many they will take this year.
Hope this helps!
