    KatCora ... Hmmm, funny that I haven't logged into AllNurses.com in maybe a year, and when I finally do, there's a reply to my original message. Admittedly, I'm not sure how much help I can be to you...

  8. SSM Futures - An Overview

    NeveJe replied to NeveJe's topic in General Nursing

    I'll have to leave it to someone else to elaborate on this one. I vaguely remember that, in my Futures group, there were just a few people who were hired for Cardinal Glennon, and - if I recall...

  9. SSM Futures - An Overview

    NeveJe replied to NeveJe's topic in General Nursing

  10. SSM Futures - An Overview

    NeveJe replied to NeveJe's topic in General Nursing

    I can't recall if I said this before or not. People who wanted straight med/surg placement seemed to get it. People who wanted ICU, ED, OB/L&D, etc. had to interview a second time with their unit...

  13. SSM Futures - An Overview

    NeveJe replied to NeveJe's topic in General Nursing

    I admit I'm confused about your particular situation. They told you that they were taking you into the Futures program in January? Unless they changed something as of 2012, they were only running it...

    NeveJe replied to NeveJe's topic in General Nursing

    no, no, not at all. i think it's a great idea for people to share information on the different companies in the area! i certainly don't expect everyone to have ssm as their top choice of prospective...

  15. Starting pay new ADN in St. Louis?

    NeveJe replied to STLCCSTUDENT's topic in General Nursing

    I graduated from STLCC with my ADN, so I wanted to chime in, hoping my perspective would be helpful. I have no idea what a "nurse tech" is. Every company has a different name for their nurse's aids:...

    NeveJe replied to mcalvin76's topic in General Nursing
