This was my first travel experience from  2021-2022 and it unfortunately set the bar real high for every job i’ve had after it. The provider experience in ICU is a dream and they were not afraid to put in the work. My co-workers were all helpful and there were times I forgot I was a traveler because they made me feel so at home. Management was extremely fair and personable. Patient care was top notch. If I wanted to move to that area I would work here in a heartbeat.

The money was not enough for the cost of living and the parking was ridiculous for employees but it worse for contract workers!

The pay was hideous
