1. Centura Health Nurse Residency October/November 2020

   yodapup replied to jvt01's topic in New Nurse

   No, the ED observation is it's own unit. Most nurses work on this unit for 1-2 years and then transition to the ED. All patients have an observation status meaning they're not inpatient and are here for further testing until they can go home or their...

4. UCHealth vs. Centura Health Residency Programs

   yodapup replied to pizzaqween's topic in Colorado

   If you get an offer with Centura, I would take that if I were you. Better pay and no contract, although I was told by 2 different Centura hospitals that they would like for me to stay on the unit for 1 year as a new grad. It’s not an official contrac...

5. Centura Health Nurse Residency October/November 2020

   yodapup replied to jvt01's topic in New Nurse

   I had an interview with Castle Rock med surg last week but I think that's only because I currently work there as a tech. My manager knew I was applying and picked my name out early. But I just got notification yesterday that I was asked for an interv...

   yodapup replied to mischiff's topic in School Programs

   The immediate surrounding area of the anschutz location is not good. But the good news is the light rail has a stop right at the medical campus so you look up light rail stops and see what might be convient for you. If you're looking for more of a su...

    I used to work as an EMT for about 5 yrs but have been a stay at home mom for the past 2 years. I do already have a bachelors in Kinesiology from almost 10 yrs ago so I had to retake most of the prerequisites.

    Glad I found this thread as I received an email for an interview yesterday too! I'm excited and nervous! Does anyone know how many people they accept into the program? On their website it says 25%, is that 25% of people who apply?

12. Paramedic Prior to Nursing?

    yodapup replied to KiwiKatt's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I strongly suggest becoming an EMT first, even if it's for 6 months. I know you get paid a lot less as an EMT but the experience you'll gain will be crucial. Paramedic school is tough even for people who have worked as an EMT for 5 years. As a parame...

13. Paramedic Prior to Nursing?

    yodapup replied to KiwiKatt's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Are you already an EMT? I was going to apply to paramedic school because I loved emergency medicine. But I also knew I wanted to become a nurse one day. I was literally about to mail my application in when I thought, what am I doing? Why pay for para...

    Anyone here applying? I submitted my application about a week ago and just waiting for all my transcripts to go through. It's going to be so hard waiting a month+ to hear anything back.
