UC Davis New Grad Residency Fall 2020

[NewNurs2020]

Is anyone planning on applying? Application period opens up April 29th. I am curious how it will work out with unit placement when so many programs in CA did not get to finish their preceptorships.

I wonder this as well. I know there were a lot of us whose preceptorships were affected, and although this was no fault of our own, I still imagine we'll appear less attractive than those who graduated a couple of months earlier and were able to complete a legitimate preceptorship. Really discouraging

I'm curious, how many preceptorship hours did you both end up completing vs how many were required at your schools?

LOL 0. The week I was starting my preceptorship was the week quarantine started and everything went to hell! We do Med surg II clinical the first half of the semester so I was able to finish that

required was 120 I believe

So does everyone's application say "Application Under Review"? Or does anyone's still say "Application Received" or anyone's change to "No Longer Under Consideration"?

Dang! Well, hopefully they are understanding of your situation. Nothing you could have done....

Depends on how you look at it LOL. I was supposed to have my preceptorship in peds, then the facility closed to students like 3 days before it was supposed to start. I ended up being able to complete 70 (out of 110-120 I think?) in med-surg at a different hospital, but it wasn't even really a preceptorship, just a glorified regular rotation...I had a different RN each day basically

Do you know if those units are where they did their senior preceptorships?

Yes, all of them. They’re sac state students. UCDMC took in all csus students in their final semester of nursing school so they could get their hours
