Hello Nurses,

Just want to start a new thread for anyone who is trying to apply for the August 2025 Cohort. Good luck to everyone!

on a facebook group for socal new grads, I saw someone who was a part of the new grad residency for hollywood from an older cohort say they left after 8 months because they kept floating them back and forth between urgent care and tele while still trying to finish up the residency program. The things I've been hearing are that you learn alot there but it is hard work. That it's hard to reach MDs to put in orders and things like that. I also just recently found out that Culver City doesn't have parking too. I also saw another comment saying the education days were 12 hours long.

I would check out that group on facebook!

I have seen it. I was hoping someone else could chime in on their experience. I even went to an older thread for this hospital and asked if anybody who accepted positions could give feedback but didn't receive a reply. I guess it doesnt sound terrible. I am not expecting a magnet level place but I am sure we would all hope for the culture to be decent and supportive to new grads.  

 

I also just received a call from a 657 number about culver city medsurg/tele about the residency so if anybody is waiting they seem to be making phone calls.

By no parking do you mean no free parking for staff? I know some hospitals make staff pay to park there. Or no employee parking lot and the staff shares one lot with patients?

I think they don't have any onsite parking at all. On their website, it says there are 6 paid parking lots available around the hospital. I've never been here before but it sounds like they don't have parking. I checked Google maps and it shows that there's a parking garage across the street though?
