  3. El Centro vs Mountain View

    chief76 replied to graice's topic in Texas Nursing

    I agree. I'm two weeks from graduating the El Centro program and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It is beyond unorganized. Every semester we fill out a survey as to what is wrong and every semester...

    chief76 replied to chief76's topic in Texas Nursing

    I felt like it went pretty well. Everyone was really nice. However, they said they probably won't make a decision for another couple weeks. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed. Have you heard anything...

  12. BSWH Spring 2018 Residencies

    chief76 replied to chief76's topic in Texas Nursing

    They are pretty general. Why you want to be a nurse, what specialty interests you most, talk about a time you had a difficult patient, how you multitask, etc. I think there are 6 questions in all. You...

  13. BSWH Spring 2018 Residencies

    chief76 replied to chief76's topic in Texas Nursing

    They may be. I applied to a different specialty, so that may have something to do with it. I know of a person that graduated with her ADN about a year ago and works with one of the Dallas locations in...

  14. BSWH Spring 2018 Residencies

    chief76 replied to chief76's topic in Texas Nursing

    I received an email from each location. It's difficult with an ADN, without working at one of the facilities, at least in Dallas. However, I was really impressed with Temple. I went to their New Grad...

  16. Memorial Hermann-Nurse Residency Spring 2018

    chief76 replied to tokedo's topic in Texas Nursing

    Not really. It was mainly just general information. We received a presentation for each specialty and then they had tables set up for each also. You could go by and ask any questions you had. It was...

  17. Memorial Hermann-Nurse Residency Spring 2018

    chief76 replied to tokedo's topic in Texas Nursing

    I filled mine out on Friday and went to the Open House on Saturday. It sounds like Match Day may be October 24th. Did anyone else hear that? Unfortunately, I have an exam that day. Hoping I can work...

  19. El Centro Spring 2018 Nursing Program Hopefules

    chief76 replied to lindaapham92's topic in Texas Nursing

    For the most part, you will only have classes twice a week. One day for all your lecture classes and one for your skills class. You may have to come in for the random simulations. But at least you...

  22. Does your facility teach new grad RN's to scrub?

    chief76 posted a topic in Operating Room

    I guess you could say this is more or less a survey. I would be very curious to know if your facility or any facility that you know of includes scrub training in their new grad...

    chief76 replied to chief76's topic in Operating Room

    I agree. I have just seen positions in some areas of the country that I would like to eventually work, that scrub experience is highly desired. So I was hoping to possibly get it if I could. It just...
