One of my "favorite" deliveries was a 53 year old woman who was having a son and refused to believe it until we literally dropped the baby on her chest. After the baby went to the NICU and she'd been with us a day or so to recover, I went to ask her ...

I don't personally have a fertility problem (that I know of, I have no desire to have kids any time soon), but I work in all areas of OB - L&D, mother/baby, NICU, and even occasionally peds - and I'd actually say about half my coworkers were neve...

So I am a fairly new nurse still (just passed my 9th month in my first job) and I've made several dumb mistakes along the way. Insulin given incorrectly once during orientation, narcs given too soon after a c-section once shortly after orientation, a...

Hey everyone. I never intended to make a post like this because I know about the "new grad blues" and how hard that first year is. I expected all that. However, my job is becoming more stressful than that. It's going to be super hard to explain here,...

Hey, so I haven't seen any new threads pop up about the next round of Emory's new grad residencies. Has anyone applied recently/heard anything? I'm scheduled for an interview at Midtown on the 30th, but I'd like to talk to/hear from others going thro...

Thanks for the responses. I agree my original post sounds flippant, but I wasn't in person. I am flippant about more light things like I forgot to give such-and-such room diapers when she asked, but I knew how big - and ridiculously dumb - the insuli...

No, I wouldn't ask about my specific status - that is pushy. I would just ask if the calls for women's services were through, and I'd think Amanda would know that since she's the only one giving out the calls for that and there are only 10 apparently...

I kinda want to email Amanda and ask if they're done with phone calls for women's services so that I know to move on. But then I don't want to seem pushy...

Has anybody's application status changed yet? I was thinking that it wouldn't if we were hired (who's got the time for that?), but that HR would change the status to generate and send an automatic email to all those who weren't gonna be hired. But mi...

I've just about given up on Emory at this point. 95% sure they're done with women's services by now, especially since they're only hiring 10

Go to this link Employment Opportunities With Emory Healthcare | Atlanta, GA | Emory Healthcare and I guess since you haven't gone before you can create an account and then log in. Though I'm sure it'll say the same thing mine's said since April 16th...

That's a valid question. I can't imagine they'll every single person who interviewed who doesn't get offered - or else those poor HR people will be on the phone for days! I just keep checking that stupid application status like it's my job.

I'm originally from Thomaston, bout an hour and half south of Atlanta (give or take with the horrendous traffic lol). All my family are still down there, except my mom and her parents, who live here in PA. So I've always planned on going back! :) Wow...

Yeah, this interview would be for their next round of hires in the fall. I was supposed to go interview with them last month, but I couldn't get away from work long enough to take a trip down to Atlanta, especially when I had already scheduled Emory'...

I'm lined up for another women's services interview with them later this month if Emory doesn't work out; preferably L&D or mother/baby again. What unit are you looking at?

Well, if all else fails, I have Northside to fall back on. I just really really want Emory! :) Good luck to the rest of you who haven't heard anything yet! Maybe the four or five I've heard from on hear that are trying for women's services will make ...

Well. Crap. Lol now I'm even more nervous. But you should be even prouder of yourself to be one of those 10!!!

I'm sure you'll do fine! What did you name the group?

I think someone started one a little ways back, but I don't know what it's called or anything.

This literally just happened to me, but even worse because it was a GA area code! But it was just my nana asking if I'd heard anything lol

Anybody in the women's health dept yet?

I just keep checking my application status repeatedly lol

I would've been delighted to have either, but I interviewed with L&D even though most of my experience was in mother/baby and high-risk OB. Pleasantly surprised by that. Really hoping everyone gets what they want, everyone I've met so far on here...

Thanks for the info! Hate the waiting, but at least I'm not in it alone :)

"That day" lol what am I doing. Like it was so long ago. I've been on so many planes and so many long car rides, yesterday feels like last week!
