Ofc not, go ahead!

Each unit varies. Right now we’ve had three weeks of in person/online training. The first week was online modules, the second week we had two in person skills trainings, and the third week we have a 3 day ECG course. We log 8 hours a day 5 days a week (some days we just do online modules). Some units have started their preceptor shifts during training, some are starting after the mandatory trainings. We have a weekly class for our unit (some last 10 weeks, some fewer) on top of the preceptor shifts (25 shifts) before we are on our own. No contract but they expect a year. Took maybe a month before interviews if I remember correctly? But if you’re an experienced nurse they do a fellowship instead of residency so you would be on a slightly different schedule as you don’t need some of the training. Hope this helped

Hi! I graduated in may of 2021, and signed up for the NCLEX right away and couldn’t take it until august. Most residency programs want you to have taken your NCLEX by your start date. I applied for fall programs but I was cutting it really close on most of the dates having not taken my NCLEX. The Winter programs mainly start in November so those were good ones to apply for on my timeline! Hope this helps

if you are going to work at LCOM, I made a facebook group. hopefully this link works www.facebook.com/groups/3022972121352643/

I did not sign anything Is there a facebook group or anything for LCOM residents?

What was the area code

My recruiter said nothinf about a night shift differential… but said I was night shift? Also no contract with definitive info such as if it’s binding and what happens if you leave etc??

Congrats!! Did your portal update?

Did you get an email before that call asking for your availability, or was that the first you heard from them? Oh and congrats obviously!

no idea! I wish this process was quicker LOL

For those that had their portals updated, when you click on the new specialty does anything come up??

Any emails/calls to anyone yet??

I was wondering the same thing! If anyone has this information, please share(:

Yes mikayla. I got an email offer so I was responding to her previous email, but haven’t heard back!

I believe the lady in charge might have today off as I sent her an email last Thursday and she has yet to reply! So don’t lose hope yet!
