I’ve gone back twice. It’s one of my favorite hospitals in the area they treat you like family. I absolutely recommend it.

ICU - Intensive Care Unit

Med Surg / Telemetry

OR - Operating Room

Nursery

Infusion

ED - Emergency Department

I really enjoy using Vivian and it does help a lot, but it doesn't update often enough so the jobs you're looking at can actually be closed for a couple weeks sometimes more - even if they say "posted 1 day ago" which can cause a lot of disappointment. However, I always suggest this site to people traveling.
