Checked my status today, all boxes are green check marks and in red it says "In Review". I assume that means I'm complete?
For those wondering, Downstate is located Flatbush, one of Brooklyn's communities. I work in EMS so bring patients there relatively often, even more often to Kings County Hospital and Kingsbrook Jewish Hospital. All three hospitals are literally across the street from one another. Kings County is biggest, most infamous (in a bad way) and is the only Level 1 trauma out of all 3. Downstate has a relatively smallish ER. The location, Flatbush, is not the best area of Brooklyn, but certainly not the worst. That said, Prospect Park and Park Slope are both close by, and nice areas, especially Park Slope. By train, it would take ~20 minutes to get into Manhattan if the city is your thing. Like someone else said, clinical experience will probably be good here, as you get a lot of sick patients due to the nature of the area. Most people will be on Medicare/Medicaid or not insured at all.
with your application!
