Haven't much thought of Florida!!! Something to consider and I will definately look into it!! Thanks!!!

Thanks for the info!!! Going to check now........

Thank you!!! I know it will be hard but I'm so ready for it to begin!! Congrats on finishing your residency!!:balloons: Maybe you will see me around as I'm looking (mostly) at VA, NC, & SC. I'd like to be as close to home as possible. I'm keeping my options open. Thanks again and best wishes to you!!

Thank you!!! Never occurred to me at all. Hopefully this will broaden my search results. I'm finding out what I can on line and will take advantage of the phone afterwards. Thanks again!!:)

Thanks so much! I appreciate your input. DH thinks it's a bit *early* to be getting all excited and trying to find out what I need to find out. Hopefully, the earlier the better. Thanks again!:) :)

Hi everyone! My name is Kathy. DH is active duty so I won't be 'here' forever. I'm 32, SAHM and have 4 beautiful kids. I'm currently a pre-Nursing student. Done all my pre-req's and waiting for acceptance letters!! (optimism:chuckle) I've wanted to be a nurse since Kindergarten and a NICU nurse since visiting my cousin's twin preemies in a NICU. It was like....WOW....this is where I belong. I have a deep interest in the OR as well, but I am so passionate about the NICU. It's something I really can't explain. I, personally, feel that I need to be where the passion lies. You find lots of things that interest you and you like but when you keep coming back to that one particular thing, then I think that's where you need to be. Anyways....I've searched high and low on this forum and not really found an answer to my question....which would be...where do I start looking for hospitals that have the NICU internships/preceptorships? Obviously those hospitals that HAVE NICU's... I've checked out NANN and other sites in the 'sticky' at the beginning of the forum. I'm wanting to find hospitals on the east coast...say DC to Fla so I'm not *really* limiting myself to say where I currently live. Any helpful info. or suggestions are ALL greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance!!:) edited to add: I've also printed out the list for recommended reading...for future reference. Stuck it in my Nursing Info. folder!!

I've been living in Clarksville/Ft.Campbell for 6 yrs. now. Liking Clarksville (like any other place) depends upon what YOU like in a city/town. MHO is that Clarksville is a small city w/a big city attitude and big city traffic!!! My DH is active duty and my opinions are based on being stationed in several different places. I DO KNOW lots of people stay here after being here some time and that HAS to say something about Clarksville. I'm a *big* city girl (well, bigger than here...not like NYC) and prefer that to smaller cities/towns. I prefer Nashville to here, but that's just me. Don't let me deter you....it's all in what YOU like. Nurses are still in demand here and you won't have trouble finding a job! Good luck in your endeavors!!!

Hi! My name is Kathy, I'm a 32 yr.old SAHM of 4 kids....12, 10(almost 11), 8, and 3. I've finished all my pre-req's and am just waiting to take the NET and a new pre-req I just found out about...Nursing Assistant Skills I. I'll be (hopefully) in Fall '05 program at Hopkinsville Community College, Hopkinsville, KY. We're (DH) is stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY...~45 miles NW of Nashville,TN on the state line. I'm so thankful to finally be embarking on a dream I've had since Kindegarden. Good luck to everyone and I look forward to knowing you better during this exciting time!!
