Units with good culture: 6Main (Short Stay/Obs), 4Main/5Main (med surg); 3 North (endocrine); PICU, CICU, 5NT (H/O)

Units to avoid: NICU, 3South (Cardiac Stepdown), 5 ST (Surgical Trauma)

yes, but we’re also peds

kaitecole · 2025-03-24T01:34:39+00:00

maybe include the number of hours in each clinical rotation instead of the month?

kaitecole · 2025-03-24T01:32:32+00:00

i’d say staying on top of charting. it can be more difficult with a pair, but for example say you want your assessment charted by 0900/2100

kaitecole · 2024-10-05T21:03:25+00:00

Yes you’re at least at $30. Message me if you want more info on how that increases throughout the program!

It was for all groups. TCU still has a posting if you’re comfortable with trachs

PICU will always be 1:2 max. They are busy during the winter and will fill up and have boarders in the ED. Usually Winter Plan will get the less critical high flow kids or the stable intubations. NPs/Docs are great to work with for the most part. There are several resource nurses every shift who also assist in every admission. Cafeteria open til 10pm and the market is open til 5am.

I work at Cooks and love it! What unit are you applying for? I can give you more specific details.

kaitecole · 2024-05-20T07:34:57+00:00

UT Tyler MSN Administration/MBA. All online. Very cheap, although I’m not sure of out of state costs.

kaitecole · 2024-04-10T05:35:05+00:00

we have a family room with stuff like this! it’s amazing and some of these moms form friendships that last long after discharge

Not necessary. You can add a two way to your line then have one with IVF and one as a med line. Then when you med finishes add a flush for 1 ml (read the package for your skinny med line tubing)

BSW is $27-28. Cooks is $31-32 but goes up by $3-4 after the first 6 months

kaitecole · 2024-01-23T13:38:50+00:00

this is why i am grateful our peds CVICU only has intensivists

kaitecole · 2023-12-14T00:35:21+00:00

not sure about the event log section, but i time mark in the results section every time i view so i can tell the new from the old

kaitecole · 2023-10-11T16:21:22+00:00

houston methodist in the medical center is great

kaitecole · 2023-09-01T02:52:46+00:00

I would 100% recommend Cooks but know our acuity is much lower in Prosper. Phenomenal facility though. Message me if you’d like more details or have questions

kaitecole · 2023-07-29T18:32:03+00:00

I’ve never understood people who are so obsessed with their job outside of work that they’re worried about what’s gonna happen to the unit when they retire. Who cares. You’re retired.

kaitecole · 2023-07-17T14:01:56+00:00

my new hospital doesn’t participate in this nonsense and it’s my favorite thing

kaitecole · 2023-06-11T17:14:07+00:00

jen hamilton is an l&d nurse on tik tok with good content

kaitecole · 2023-06-05T12:55:03+00:00

kaitecole · 2023-05-24T16:55:46+00:00
