Scripps Health New Grad Residency August/October 2023

Updated:   Published

Hi guys! Just wanted to start a post for the cohort for August/October 2023. Just curious if anyone would know the answer to this but it says on their FAQs PDF that there is only positions in units like med/surge or telemetry however during the application, there were choices like medical acute and surgical acute. Does anyone know if those units are hiring or not? And if we could apply to multiple units?

I'm open to which ever unit is a good fit ?

I'll cross my fingers for us both!! ☺️

They told me today would be the day that decisions were made but I'll just keep thinking good thoughts. What is meant to be for us will be. 

I think they also would let us know if we didn't get it I feel like

Does anyone know someone who has been thru the program. Or know of any posts on here that discuss what it's like. I've only found posts like this one that is for all of us applying/interviewing. I'm wondering at the end of the 10 Mos do they place graduates on different units or if we stay on the unit on which we trained? And also if we can work OT?

I know a little about what happens in the program. So it's 40 weeks. You'll do 20 weeks on days and 20 on nights. In the beginning you'll be with a preceptor and you will start with being responsible for one patient. Then slowly they'll build up the workload so you'll have 2 patients, 3, until you reach a full assignment. Your preceptor will fill out weekly evaluations for you and you have certain skills you must demonstrate. You will have training modules/ classes to do as well so if you are on nights they will be sure that you don't work the night before or day of the class/ training module. At the end of the 40 weeks if the unit you've been training on likes you/wants to keep you, they will hire you on. If not, you will be placed somewhere else in the hospital system to work. IDK about the OT

I think it just means they're not accepting anymore applications and now they might just be reviewing all applicants from the interviews. 

Mine still says accepting job applications so it's not closed for me. I wonder how often they actually update that status tho
