I just spoke with them and the BOP is not eligible for the nurse Corp loan repayment. The BOP is an eligible site for the national health service Corp loan repayment and has an HRSA score of 12. I think that is the confusion. I'm an NP and would apply for the NHSC loan repayment program. Whew! I just accepted a position at USP ATL BOP.

When did they say this changed about BOP and did they say why?

1. The tech/pt ratio depends on the unit you are working on. But generally, you may have as many as 15 pts. 2. I am not a tech. I am now an RN at Piedmont and was never required to work as a tech while I was still in school. That is a new requirement. The scholarship you have is quite different from the Piedmont Scholarship I had. 3. The nurses there are very friendly and helpful. 4. Yes, I was a given a choice of where I wanted to do my leadership practicum; however there is no gurantee that a position will be available on that unit by the time you graduate. 5. There was not a position avail for the dept I did my practicum on therefore I was hired for a different dept following graduation. 6. It is likely that while you are in school you will be working days or wknds. Nights is only a good idea on wknds during school. I hope this helps. Congrats on getting the scholarship! I'm sure I'll eventually see you around Piedmont sometime.

I like the Dickies & Greys Anatomy scrubs. They are really soft & comfy, almost like wearing pj's. And it seems like they are wrinkle resistant cuz I almost never have to iron mine.

I am starting my senior practicum in a very large hospital (25+ OR's) pre-op unit in Atlanta. Can anyone please tell me what kind of things to expect or experiences I might encounter? What type skills will I perform? I am super excited & can't wait to get started. Just curious about what I'm in for...

Thank you for the update. I just wanted to get somewhat of a clue of what i could expect once i graduate this Dec.

CONGRATS!!!!!

Your best chance for getting into a hospital as a new grad is to apply for a residence program. Im not familiar with florida but most residencies in GA accept applications twice a year in March and October which would require applying before you graduate. However some hospitals accept applications to their residency programs year round. Perhaps you should try looking for these types of jobs if you haven't already done so. Good luck with your job search! And CONGRATS on passing NCLEX!

Good luck! Once you pass your exam, update us on what stategy worked for you. Again, good luck!!!

CONGRATS TO YOU! I graduate in dec this year and hope to get into critical care also. Be sure to update us once you start about your experience. Good luck!

CONGRATS TO YOU!:grad::grad:
