Hello All, I know this topic has been mentioned before, but I haven't found any recent threads. I am a med/surg nurse with one year of experience who just received a job in postpartum (yay!). I am so excited. I just have a couple questions. Are t...

A lot of you mention changing specialties, are there any suggestions for this? I am thinking of leaving acute care, but I am not sure where to go. I feel the same way you do OP and I've only been doing this for a year. It makes me sad that I have ...

I work on a med/surg floor where I guess some CNAs complained that nurses abuse them and our manager has now made it where the RNs will be doing all vitals on top of everything else. Is this normal for other hospitals? I understand that everyone is b...

I am glad you brought up the lack of equipment because we definitely have that. I see this as a major problem because I know some of the nurses will try and hide a machine if they have found one and liked it.

Yeah, I did not want to sound offensive, but I feel like they are putting a lot on our shoulders. I feel like I run around the entire shift and this just adds to the endless list of things I have to do. I heard CNAs used to be able to take blood suga...

Keep positive thoughts. At least they let you know and you can move on.

Congrats! Which hospital?

Major bummer...I used to work there and I miss it so much. I was really hoping for an interview.

Still quiet for me too. Whoever gets called has to post. Lol

All of mine still say app received. I would at least like any update whether good or bad.

As I was leaving the interview, I stopped by the HR desk by the door and that is what she told me.

I was told that 195 were interviewed and there are 80 positions.

It didn't change, it just says applicant review still.

I applied to all but NICU. All of mine say application received. I am not sure how long it will take for them to look over all those apps. There's probably over a thousand overall.

On the website, it says that everyone will be notified by this Friday whether they've been selected or not.

Thank you so much, JKRN!! I really appreciate your help and being so specific. I looked up and down the previous Scripps threads and could not find anything. Congrats on Sharp Memorial, that is a beautiful hospital. I just hope I can nail this in...

Hello Everyone, I know some of you had interviews previously at Scripps and I was curious about what type of interview questions they asked. Are they clinical questions or general interview questions? Thanks for your help.
