Pros
Banner pays travelers better than the other hospitals in Arizona. Traveler friendly. Brand new women and children's tower. All units have single patient rooms.
Cons
Banner requires a cancellation clause that allows them to cancel you up to 12 hours per week for the duration of your contract. This is nonnegotiable. I recommend you ask your recruiter about prorated stipends if you're cancelled by the facility. Travelers aren't allowed to pickup OT even if they cancel one of your shifts.

Great people to work with and travelers come back regularly. Will see a lot of prisoners the state prison(Prisontown USA, look it up). If you're not used to being in a secluded small town working in a hospital with limited resources, you should look elsewhere. Can be busy for the size at times but not too bad. I would go back if a contract came back up.
