Pros
Fairly traveler friendly in the ER specifically. Trauma experiences daily so great for gaining experience. New remodeling. Cerner. ER ratio 1:4 & ER CCU ratio 1:2-3 Pharmacist in ER. Respiratory Therapist in ER.
Cons
It can be a little cliquey with core staff. Management obviously have favorites. Cerner. New remodeling means ER Travelers are going to be holding patients and the ratio is usually 1:5 for holds. Residents.
