Starting a thread for others applying to this program!

Anyone work in healthcare already? I work in accounting and its boring..

[dlei]

I'm non-clinical also at Florida Hospital. I tried to play that up in most questions because I believe I was the only one with any experience working (not just volunteering) in that environment. I hope I came off as genuine because interacting with patients and their families is really the most rewarding part of my job!

I volunteer in a position that is a paid position. Lol I volunteer in outpatient services from 5 AM to 11 AM on Fridays, if that counts.

[Katsmeow]

I used to volunteer at the hospital. And as far as work experience, I've worked in customer service.

[BrihtneeY]

I would have played it up too! If I had any experience. I would love to work in a hospital right now.. Or with patients.

I did some brief volunteer work in the baby pace at a Florida hospital but the ladies were so mean when they talked about the patients and condescending to me that I actually thought about changing majors.

It would be my first time in scrubs too!!! ^_^ so exciting! I have been serving for over 5 years now... A good way to encounter all different types of people!

[Katsmeow]

I've encountered some mean nurses too while my dad was hospitalized that almost made me change my major too.... It's different at each hospital though

[Katsmeow]

Oh and I don't know if they told you, but during my interview we were told CON is trying to get it arranged where some clinicals can be at the VA hospital and Nemours.

[sunnydays101]

Thy told my group that also! I would love to be at nemours

[jv713]

What is nemours? Sorry if it's a dumb question haha but I'm still learning the area

[Katsmeow]

Yeah me too. I hope they have it set up before the program starts in August!!

[Katsmeow]

Nemours is the new children's hospital in "medical city"/lake Nona. It opened in October.
