I have done most of my rotations there as a nursing student. I have had rotations on L&D, postpartum, 3E and 3W (peds), 3NE (med/surg), 5E (medical ICU), and I am currently on 5W (trauma ICU) doing my preceptorship for my last semester. I have also spent a day in the NICU, PICU, BMT unit, and a couple days in the ED. Generally, everyone is very friendly and very nice. I really enjoyed my ICU rotation there, they have some very good and experienced nurses. It is a teaching hospital, which some people find a benefit and others find annoying. Overall, its a good hospital and I have had good experiences on every floor that I have been on.

Hey everyone! I just have some questions that I thought someone would be able to help me with. I will be graduating in December '06 with my BSN and will probably be moving to the College Station/Bryan area from AZ. I have applied at both St. Joseph's Regional Health Center and College Station Medical Center. I was wondering if anyone on here works or knows someone that works at either of these hospitals and can recommend one of them? I appled several weeks ago and haven't heard back from either one, so I don't have any offers. And would anyone happen to know the nurse to patient ratio at either hospital? Also, I am planning on taking the NCLEX in AZ and then moving. Is that a good idea, or would it be better to move and then take the NCLEX in TX? I don't know how long I will be staying in TX to work. Thank you everyone!! Jennio123
