Where can I find ATL Nurse Extern Programs?

Published

Does anyone know where to find a good nurse extern program? I live about 30 minutes from Atlanta. I've looked at Piedmont Fayette/Newnan, Grady, and Emory. But no where seems to be hiring any. I really want to get some critical care experience so I can hopefully get hired in an ICU when I graduate next year. Any suggestions?

Gwinette medical center will be accepting applications in january and I think that Grady will be having an open house in october if not March for sure. I just started at Grady a month ago and it is paid which is good.

Are you able to keep up with your studies and clinicals working? I was told it was difficult to work while in the nursing Program.

I just started my extern this summer, but I don't think that it will be a problem with my studies. I'm only required to work 2 days in a pay period, so 1 day a week. Some people work PRN, which I think is easier than working fulltime or parttiime, but it depends on the person as well

What a sweet deal. What hospital are you working at?
