WELL, these last few weeks of college are flying by and I am quite busy!
At this point, I am looking into working at one of three different hospitals in the area (more or less). One of them is Huntington Memorial Hospital right here in Pasadena. Its overall a really nice hospital, a "teaching hospital", affiliated with USC, and probably the best is that it is like 3 blocks away from our apartment. I am interested in a position in the Maternity department there. Another hospital I am applying to is Children's Hospital Los Angeles which is in Hollywood off of Vermont and Sunset. That is the negative...is that it is a little ways a way although I have gone there many times before for clinicals. It is a pediatric facility that is the "mecca" for all serious pediatric cases. I am applying to keep my options open. They have a 22 week New Grad residency starting in September. The last hospital is also nearby and its called Glendale Adventist Hospital. Its only 10 or so minutes away and our neighbor had her baby there in the fall. Actually quite a nice facility even though APU has not done clinicals there. Again, I would prefer a Maternity position there but those units are "full" for now...but I am going to continue the application and out of all three hospitals see what ends up being the best situation! Keep me in your prayers as the process goes on... Yikes.
