The nursing staff welcomed me; and I've felt the love of the pharmacy staff, the laboratory staff, and other ancillary departments such as PACU and ED. Everyone has been welcoming and kind, and more importantly, they appreciate my help! I love it here, which is why I extended my contract until February 2022. The winter will be my first winter in the Midwest since I graduated from nursing school in 2009, and I honestly cannot see myself in a better place. I feel like a valuable and respected part of the team. I am glad to be here where my time and skills sets are appreciated.  ALLEN ROCKS!"

Pros

Nicole was very helping and always proficient with reaching out and even going above and beyond when the facility itself was slacking. When the facility canceled all contracts the day before start date she found me another position within the same week. I would recommend her 10x over.
