   Sushisaur posted a topic in Urology

   In the California midterm elections this week, we are being asked to vote on PROP 8, a proposition attempting to introduce cap profits at dialysis centers (which 70% statewide are owned by the same corporation, and have an average for 5x the profits ...

2. Providence TIP Program 2017

   Sushisaur replied to arliniee's topic in New Nurse

   Have you spoken directly to the main contact at the recruitment support team (onboarding) yet? The initial recruiter should have put you in contact with this person - it's the person most of those auto preboarding e-mails are from (NOT the [COLOR=#00...

4. Providence TIP Program 2017

   Sushisaur replied to arliniee's topic in New Nurse

   My onboard specialist was pretty MIA until after my drug test cleared, and then she was on top of it. For me, she gave me links to all the documentation I needed via e-mail to bring with me first day and told me to contact my manager for more specifi...

5. Providence TIP Program 2017

   Sushisaur replied to arliniee's topic in New Nurse

   April 10th start date! I was offered a position at St. Josephs at the end of Feb, but as of last week I believe there were still interviews going on at least at some of the locations. I think each location is different, not to mention not all candida...

   Sushisaur replied to nursepepper28's topic in California

   I interviewed 2/17/17 at Providence St. Joes Burbank and was offered the job the next day. I accepted a position on their bariatric med/surg floor, which despite the name, isn't really just a bariatric floor. While they do bariatric surgeries twice a...

7. New Nurse - Meal Period Waiver

   Sushisaur replied to misskait's topic in Professionalism

   I am a new nurse too, and by the sound of it EVERYBODY waives the second meal period in CA. It's very busy on the floor, and if you don't waive the second meal period, you by law have to clock out (and not get paid) for a break you may or may not be ...

8. bariatric nursing a good job?

   Sushisaur replied to allthesmallthings's topic in Career Support

   I have two new grad offers from "bariatric floors"; I was initially going to decline since I'm looking for a more varied M/S experience, however managers of both say they really only have 5% bariatric patients at a time (since surgeries are only 3 ti...

9. Torrance Memorial March '17 New Grad Residency

   Sushisaur replied to f4y3mund0's topic in New Nurse

   I've decided to accept the position at TMMC. I was initially going to decline, but apparently the nurse recruiter accidentally told me 6E was orthopedics (it's a mixed med surg floor) - which is what I wanted! I'm interested in starting a fb group, l...

    Update: I just received an offer for an orthopedic night shift position this morning. I'm not certain I will be accepting, but just know calls are coming in!

11. New Grad at PIH, Whittier: Is 4-6 Weeks too Short?

    Sushisaur posted a topic in Career Support

    For those who have gone through the New Grad Program at Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital at Whittier or Downey, did you feel it was helpful/satisfactory/safe? Or, if you are a nurse at PIH, in your opinion does the program seem to churn out fairl...

    Boy, ain't that the truth. It's bananas.

13. PIH Health (Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital) new grad salary

    Sushisaur replied to LoveAnRN123's topic in California

    I think it's more related to the differential. Night-shift differential is $7 at PIH - at least at Whittier.

14. Torrance Memorial March '17 New Grad Residency

    Sushisaur replied to f4y3mund0's topic in New Nurse

    I had an interview today for Med/Surg Tele. I was told a decision would be made by end of next week, latest early the following week. They will still be interviewing next week. However, I do not know if that applies to all positions at TMMC or if tha...

    ncr86 - I've received literally nothing. They're not picking up at the office (straight to voicemail), and I've received no e-mail about tomorrow. What info do you have thus far??
