Thank you so much for the information and encouragement! I will certainly give that a try. I currently volunteer in a local NICU as a cuddler and will be doing an externship this summer in Peds in Pennsylvania. I tried for the extern in NICU but they have you list your top 3 choices and they place you from there. Should I apply before graduation? I am so new to all of this and not many people to turn to for advice in this area.
Thank you so much for responding. I feel like a fish out of water so to speak with not knowing where to even begin. I have tried searching for CHOP's residency program and haven't been able to find anything. Do you know of a link I could use for more info on the program and how to apply? Did you have any prior experience in the NICU or Peds before applying?
Hi Everyone, I will soon be a new grad and my dream is to work in the NICU at a Level III or Level IV hospital. I will be moving to New Jersey after graduation. Does anyone know of any hospitals that accept new grads to their NICU or NICU residency programs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
