Pros
One of my favorite contracts so far, especially on the Joint & Spine Center which has all the latest tech. Traveler friendly. Great team work attitude in my experience there. (I was weekend nights with consistent coworkers though so that might not be consistent. Massage chair on the Joint & Spine Unit when I was there. (This was Fall of 2021 though so who knows if it's still there!) Lots of housing options. Home of King's Island if you're into that sort of thing. Would definitely go here again!!
