Pros
Lots of resources, Nurses week is awesome they really do a lot. Ratios in ICU always 1:2 or 1:1 with CRRT or devices.
Cons
pay is low, cheap university do not want to spend money on smaller things. Charting system is epic but the amount of charting is a lot. Very tasky, doctors put in lots of orders. Little room for nurse driven protocols everything is asking for permission.
