Check the discussions in AN's Texas forum for state specific information.
U.S.A. Nursing has list of each state for information pertaining to local state area.

The poster may have had a bad experience there and not want to discuss it.
On the other hand, I went into a stable situation with nurses who were kind and supportive and MDs who were eager to teach and support. They wanted the best care for their patients and taught us at the bedside.
Best of luck in your search for a new job.
Which geographical area are you looking at? In the Houston area, Houston Methodist and Memorial Hermann systems seem to put out decent new grads. I'm partial to Houston Methodist since I've been working there since I moved into the area. The new grad residency seems comprehensive. It lasts for a year, is very supportive, and I believe the ICU orientation is about 6 months. The Methodist hospital I'm at also provided access to AACN's online critical care orientation program for 6 months when I transitioned from IMU, so I'm sure they provide the same access to new grads.
I am looking all over Texas. Thank you for all the information. I really appreciate it.

Hi everyone,
What are the best hospitals for ICU as a new graduate in Texas? I am hoping to hear from personal experiences. I really want a hospital that takes pride in training. Thank you for all the help.
