Hi! I'm starting in the CICU at CNMC! I can't say much about the institution as a whole, but the atmosphere in the CICU at CNMC was extremely supportive and welcoming when I was shadowing. I did my practicum at Johns Hopkins in the adult cardiac ICU, and while it was an amazing experience, I can't say I felt the same way re: teamwork and communication. CNMC was "it" for me.

Hi. I also got a job offer for 4 Main today for Feb 2016 also. I just need a day or 2 to decide. I dont know much about CNMC either. I am trying to choose between staying at JHH or going to CNMC.

Hi! I have a job offer at CNMC in the NICU! Where is everyone from? When I shadowed on the unit, everyone was really friendly and supportive. They seemed to work well as a team and the nurse's were given a lot of autonomy in the patient's care.

Hey Erin,

If you accept the job offer, please keep in touch. I currently work in the NICU at a hospital in MD, and I'm considering joining the NICU team at CNMC in about a year or so. Would love to hear of your experience as you become acclimated to the unit. BY THE WAY, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WORKING IN THE NICU!!! Congrats!!

Hi all ! I start in feb in the PICU! I currently work at Washington Hospital Center but im SUPER excited to come over to childrens. @bnicole7 where is the adult job you are considering taking (or possibly already took)? Working in Adult ICU/IMC now I would not recommend it just because my back ALREADY hurts from these heavy patients. Also, if the offer is at Washington Hospital Center DONT TAKE IT. This hospital is the absolute pits and I am even breaking my contract to leave. Cant wait for peds and to meet you all!

Hi!!

Congrats on your offer in the picu! I will be finished with school in March and looking to apply for the picu positions that are currently open. I saw on the website that the residency starts in feb and another one in the fall. However, it says another critical care option starts in July. Do you know if I can apply for that position or will I need to wait until the next residency starts in the fall!? An information about the unit, residency would be awesome!

Thank you,

Mia

Hi guys! I just recently interviewed for the CICU at Children's National... They seemed very interested in me and I thought the interview went well. They said they pick 6-10 new grads and said they would let me know by "spring break." It is my absolute DREAM JOB. Has anyone else interviewed for the CICU or have anymore information?

Hi!!!

I just recently applied for the picu there! I know on their website that they said the residency is offered twice a year, in February and I think September. But then they have a critical care cohort to start in July. So I figured I'd apply. Do you know How that works as far as the residency goes? Would you start in July and just not begin the actual residency part until it starts back up. Or will July new grads have their own cohort. Good luck with everything!

Hey! I also applied to the PICU but haven't heard back yet! From what I understood they said (if I got the CICU job) I would start late August/early September! But i dont know if that was just specific to that unit. The dates they had on the website confused me too.

Awww man okay! Are you graduating in May? I finish school in 2 weeks, so I was hoping they would have July start dates! But hopefully I'll hear back from someone soon.
