Hi All! Does anyone work at Paoli or Lankenau Hospitals? I'm graduating in May and am curious about what it's like to work there as a RN. Please let me know! Thanks

Hey, I'm doing my clinical there now. Anything you were wondering about in particular that I can answer from the student perspective?

ETA: I'm at Lankenau. They just switched to computer charting, and use scanners for med administration. I'm on a med/surg floor, the nurses average about 4-6 patients. (Mostly 5, I've only seen someone assigned 6 once) Day shift has about 4 PCT/s. IV Team does IV starts.

That's all I can think of for now.

Sorry I can't help you but what school do you go to? I graduate in May too from Brandywine School of Nursing.

I had clinicals at both places, I loved it. My 2 best friends are RNs there. I just applied for a few RN jobs there. I like how they operate, and also all the advanced medicine you see there. Its pretty cool!! Great hospitals to learn from for sure!!

From what I read in an article a few months go, MLH, only hires BSNs. I applied there as a new grad several times. Never got a call back, and the recruiter doesn't respond to calls/e-mail. This may have change since last year. The article regarding BSN only hiring was only a few months ago.

Good Luck.
