Get some sleep tonight fellow Parkland colleagues! We will need it!!!

I am glad I can provide laughs! We will really need it during the stressful times approaching. A master littmann! I am envious! That is a really good stethescope based on the reviews I read on it. I want one too, but I'm just gonna have to wait. yea,...

That's great to hear Babigrl, when I got my scrubs 2 weeks ago, I felt that much closer to being a Parkland nurse. I have got to say I love that we can choose between royal blue on royal blue or royal blue top on black pants. I got all 3 sets blue o...

Wow, 28! That's incredible. I really like that because I won't feel so lost by myself, lol. Hopingicu, I already got my scrubs. I only got 3 sets for now, and when I need more I will buy more. My favorite style is Greys Anatomy. The fabric is super s...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember them saying there were 25 ER spots, that's not counting the other critical care areas. So, yea it will be a HUGE group of us.

Is it weird that as excited as I am about Monday, my stomach is in knots, lol. YIKES!!! 4 days away! :)

Good for you HopingICU! Congrats! Now you should receive your official offer any day now! So happy for you!

I am getting up extra early in order not to risk being late. I'm super excited! I just need to train my brain into getting used to going to sleep early again. :)

I hear ya Babigrl, I would be lost without this site. Well, I just received an email from my recruiter. It basically has a map of the hospital, directions, the I9 doc, and a welcome to Parkland letter. I'm assuming that is what u have in ur new hire ...

lol, I completely agree with you Kimmy! and thank you babigrl! I called my recruiter and she said that in the next few days we should receive info regarding what to expect... She did confirm that monday is business casual and the rest of the week we ...

Wow, I must have really missed something. After I submitted my vaccination record, got my tb done and looked at, and drug test, I was sent on my way. I was not given any folder. I'm going to call my recruiter tomorrow and inquire on the new hire fold...

Wow, thanks. You are really informed. I think I may be out of the loop... how did u get that info.?

Thanks Babigrl, that's nice to know. Have you gotten any more information about where we are meeting, what time, just general info? I decided if I don't get an email by Wednesday or Thursday, I will call my recruiter.

That's awesome Shiner50!! Congrats! Babigrl, do you think we will be able to wear our scrubs the first week or probably business professional? I dont want to call on that because its kinda a silly question, lol...

That is great that you called and inquired on more information. I have been meaning to call, but never got around to it. My husband laughs at me because I am already in "study mode". I cant help it, lol. I have been out of school for 9 months now, so...

Hey all, I have been out of town for a while vacationing and just getting ready to start working! Babigrl, I will be in the ER with you! I am also curious to see how many we have here who will be joining us. I am a mixture of emotions! scared, exc...

Thanks RNgoldie, I have no worries on the drug screening, so its unofficially official, lol. So excited! And yes, hopingicu, I'm ER.

Oops, I meant to say the deadline to get info in is Wednesday Sept. 12th, NOT this coming Wednesday, sorry about that.

Hey, good news people! My recruiter just emailed me with info regarding the next steps. She also said that they are processing the official offers right now. The email is basically info regarding vaccinations, tb test, drug test, color blind test, an...

Unfortunately, I haven't heard back yet. It's already Wednesday, and this waiting game is no fun, lol. Let's play a new game! Let's all call our recruiters and hound them until we get our "official" offer so we don't worry anymore, ha ha ha, just kid...

Rngoldie, its definitely nice to know we are not alone in the waiting process. It gives a certain calmness about the entire process. I can't believe you're coming all the way from Rhode Island! That's really neat! I do we hope we hear soon, especiall...

WOW, congrats babigrl!!! I'm so excited for you! Having nursing experience will definitely benefit you. I graduated in December, and took a very much needed break. So, I am a "baby" nurse, struggling with all the knowledge that was crammed in my brai...

If the question is directed to me, I got the offer on friday. When did you get it? Are you a graduate nurse or an RN with experience in another department?

yup, around 10 in the evening, my phone starts to blow up with emails from Parkland, lol. I fear they are going to change their mind about my offer, and will just send me another puzzling email. I'm paranoid with a pinch of anxious, don't know if you...

Thanks babigrl, I'm so thankful I found this thread. All this waiting is a bit nerve wracking. I hope I hear back tomorrow. In the earlier threads, someone was saying about the mass emails. It's funny because Parkland called me a little past noon wi...
