PACU - Post Anesthesia Care

Staff very cliquey but to be expected.  Assignments got made based on who was working together or not, a lot of times assignments didn’t make sense or were not based of patient needs.  2:1 ratio most of the times unless you have a “stepdown” assignment.  Quite a bit of floating to their “sister” unit which is a glorified stepdown trying to function as an ICU.  Scheduling requirements sucked.

Perks were working with amazing providers in addition to working with a lot of great residents and fellows.  Good place to learn, lot of exposure to various types of patients.

Sterile Processing Technician

Pay core staff what you’re paying Travellers

they make you pay for parking. overall though, not a bad place to work.

Surgical Technologist

EEG Technician

Therapy

Physical Therapist

Post Partum

Certain specialties and staff members have very strong personalities and unwelcoming. Very rare to have your room set up from the previous night. Schedule was not what was posted or discussed on interview. You work 2X12s and 2x8s and they do not tell you it is rotating until after you start. along with the rotating schedule, your shift is sun-sun. There is no weekend/night/day/mid shift. You work what they give you.

SICU - Surgical Intensive Care

Not safe. A lot of chaos and nonsense. Poor leadership. Lots of interim leaders. Poor pay. Not traveler friendly.

MRI Technologist

ICU charge in staffing, pairing devices. Overall OK place to work, but as a Level 1 university hospital...I expected way more.

Minimal support regarding safe staffing

CCU - Coronary Care

Cliques. No phlebotomy or IV team. CNA’s do very little. Good, competent nurses

Ambulatory center was disorganized with equipment . Doctors we not the nicest.

The staff was unhappy. The mgr seemed to have colorism issues and standoffish, not very approachable, the orientation was 6 wks long I could go on....
