Hi!! I wanted to make a group for new nurses who applied to the fall residency program at UCSD. Applications opened 06/27/2022. Comment if you applied!

Not at all! I was fortunate to have my senior nursing externship at a Scripps ED, which gave me so much exposure to diverse populations, disease processes, and taught me to always be on my toes! I had work experience as a CNA and had my BLS and Mental Health First Aid certifications at the time (and now ACLS as of Thursday ?). While I think my externship helped me get an interview, I think being honest and passionate as to why I wanted to be an ED nurse in my cover letter played an important role too.
