Parkland SICU Residency opened on April 29, 2014!!! Good luck to all! SICU is a great unit and I spent many, happy years there!!

Parkland ER residency is open. Good luck to all.

Remember, chaos is what the ED is all about. It is juggling many things at once, with patients of varying acuities. One of my first lessons was to figure who is sick and who is not by just looking at them. They tell you it will take a year to get ...

i know they are interviewing. Our residency is done, the current one is ongoing (they are in phase 1). You guys would start in feb and we are hearing they will be hiring in the "twenties".

I am currently finishing the residency. I am just NOW getting comfortable in being there. It is not for everyone. Multi tasking, juggling 3-6 patients of varying acuity, mental patients, discharges, admits, AMA's and in a word CHAOS. You have to ...

it is not IF, more like WHEN for the february residency We need the staff in the ED.

Just heard, we will have 29 starting in the ED. There will be 9 for the ICU's. There will be probably as many for the February class. Most likely there will be spots opening up sometime in november time frame. Keep looking for the slots on parkla...

Look for me, will be done in November, asked for nights

Wanted to let all those interested that the Parkland ED residency (starts October 20, 2014). Check out parkland careers. Good luck to all.

No guarantees. We will not know until about 2 weeks from the end of residency. I can tell you that days is absolutely crazy especially from 1400-1900. I am on days because my preceptor is on days but that doesn't mean you will keep days. Right no...

see you when you start clinicals...we will be done and on our own at that time

whew...if you walk from the new lot to clock, takes about 15 minutes. have about 6-7 weeks class time and for 5 days (wed to tues). you are on 12 hour shifts with your preceptors (have to have a lot due to those on vacation, resign, go to part time,...

we have 15 left in our residency. We will be in our last week when you guys will be in your first week in the ED. Get your track shoes on. We are averaging around 200 in the ED on days. Taking 4-7 patients (with your preceptor). Hope you guys li...

the residency is 4 months. the contract starts on the day after you graduate for 3 years. I have not heard of a Skype/phone interview option. it is the greatest challenge you will ever have. If you can do 3 years and four months here, there is no...

We have around 9 in the SICU residency right now and haven't lost any of them. Far as I know, they have enjoyed being in the unit.

Signed within 2-3 weeks of start date- drop dead date is approximately 2 months into residency-no money owed if place not right for you (lost 3 in ED so far)- after grace period, you now owe them 3 years-don't know if they will ever collect but you w...

Residents start at 24.52 an hour. Contract starts at end of the residency for 3 years. No guarantees on shift you get. SICU goes with 3 months nights, 3 months days. The ED has no guarantee on shift.

It is 3 years after the completion of the residency. Parkland is not for everyone. You either love it or hate it, very little in between. Will not lie, it is stressful, fast paced, multitasking on the highest of levels. Focused assessments have t...

tough place to work, non stop, multitasking like crazy but need to stay focused. Lost one so far, still 16 of us in the program.. Great place to start.

look on parkland careers and that's where you will find it, "nurse resident"....SICU is on there too

aloix14, i always expected to be nights, have no problem with that! have more of a problem getting up early!! definitely not a morning person!!!

bbest9, How do they compare with other scrubs (like grey's, koi, etc) with fit and length (for the top and bottom)? They look good on the site. They have inside drawstrings, are those comfortable? thanks for showing a new possibility in scrubs~!
