    You're pretty much "deployable" right away, but it's not likely they're going to take a brand new nurse and set you free in the sandbox right out of NTP. When it comes to deployment, anything can...

  2. Anyone at Keesler Medical Center?

    jentrump29 posted a topic in Government, Military

    I know Keesler has changed alot since Katrina, but I'm curious what services are back or coming back soon. I'm hoping to eventually get my ICU identifier at some point if I get selected. I'd love to...

  3. Anyone at Keesler Medical Center?

    jentrump29 replied to jentrump29's topic in Government, Military

    I've only been at Keesler for a few months (at ASBC right now), so I haven't spent a whole lot of time on the floor. But from asking other nurses that have been there for a while, ICU nurses don't...

    jentrump29 replied to beachchic2010's topic in Government, Military

    Just to give you an idea of how it is here at Keesler...we're the second largest base for deployment, behind Lackland. ICU nurses deploy every time our band comes up. Some go even more. We deploy...

  8. Anyone at Keesler Medical Center?

    jentrump29 replied to jentrump29's topic in Government, Military

    Wow, I guess it's not what it used to be!! There are alot of "storage" rooms and one hallway is outpatient dialysis. I think that used to be part of the ICU

  11. Anyone at Keesler Medical Center?

    jentrump29 replied to jentrump29's topic in Government, Military

    Well, I'm here now. It's definitely not closing anytime soon or going down to a clinic. They're actually building a new tower that's going to house a new ICU, ER, and some med/surg floors. That...
