Hello, I am looking for any input on Sky Lakes Medical Center in Klamath Falls, OR. Experience & culture at the institution or in Klamath generally. Really anything. Thank you!

Hey all, Theoretical question about best sites for BP measurements. Situation: Arm 1: Contraindicated due to fistula, mastectomy or stroke Arm 2: IV What is your practice for taking BP? Would you choose a lower extremity site first? Use a site on I...

Can anyone clarify what a Fenwal number is?

Thanks for the clarification. In a policy referring to patient identification: "emergency identification bands (eg Fenwal #)"

Hi all, I am a new grad from the Bay Area in California. This is not news to anyone, but getting a job there as a new grad is pretty competitive, much as it is throughout the country in general. I am considering relocating to Oregon, but I'd like so...

I agree 100% with boywithacoin's post. I have lived in the bay area for almost 3 years and went to nursing school in San Francisco. Financial realities have a major influence on lifestyle. They pay, even for starting nurses, is awesome. ~60s per hour...

Hello! There have been many very helpful posts on this topic, but I am curious if anyone has pointers specific to a new grad RN on a general medical floor. I'll be starting this job soon and am hoping to succeed as much as I possibly can. FYI I'm on ...

awesome tips everyone. thank you so much for taking the time to pass some wisdom along! very appreciated ?

Potentially! I’m not very familiar with Klamath Falls and haven’t visited the area yet (I’m currently living in the Bay Area in CA). Congrats on the job btw! Aside from the hospital, how do you like Klamath/are you living there?

great, thank you!

This is an old post, so hopeful that one of you may see & reply to this! I plan on applying for Davis's next new grad cycle coming up in November. I was curious at what point references/letters of rec are required. Is it a part of the initial ap...

Hello everyone! I've recently passed NCLEX and will be graduating from nursing school in December (entry MSN). An exciting time! In the process of getting my resume ready as well as generally preparing myself for being a real nurse sometime soon, I a...

@sromero12 I may be interested in your offer! What would be the best way to get in touch with you?

@aks92 I never ever use mine might as well have deactivated it lol but I just created a closed group. You shouldddd be able to find it if you search "USF Non-Nurse MSN Cohort 23". Honestly not sure if I made it right, but hopefully it works!

And @aks92 and @md21887, I can't remember if either of you had already mentioned this before, but how are you tackling the housing situation? Would it be beneficial for us to make a Facebook group or something similar? assuming you guys have account...

To answer your question @BBPunjabi816, I just checked mine and it only says submitted now (not "to be reviewed after deadline" anymore)

I just got a call and I am in! So excited!! And wishing the best to all of us!

I'm also waitlisted! Feeling the nerves even more so now good luck to us all!

I was thinking...I would assume they called all 30-35 Friday to let them know asap and once/if they start to decline spots is when they'd start calling down an already set waitlist, which may likely be what we're on now and why we haven't heard anyth...

@aftonheistand and the second round of acceptances was about two weeks after the first?

@aftonheistand I totally agree and the fact we could be waiting weeks more is even worse! Do you recall when people were notified of being put on he waitlist?

@aftonheistand I'm also still waiting to hear anything. Agonizing!

@aftonheistand I was thinking the same thing! We are going sooo analytical with this

I feel like a total weirdo, but last cycle for summer 2016 admission, didn't a few people see their application status change to just "submitted" the day before people started receiving calls? Wishful thinking, but maybe something will finally happen...

@aftonheistand thank you! Since the first time I applied (for summer 2016), I think I significantly improved my personal statement and changed one of my recommenders, so hopefully it works out in my favor! í ½í¸Š I can't imagine wanting to get into a...
