Pros
Always given very easy assignments. Their MICU is combined with the MICU stepdown so travelers were put in stepdown once a week but it’s a 1:3 ratio there and assignments were fair
Cons
Very large unit so hard to get to know everyone/find people to help sometimes

- Short Term Acute Care
- 1,522 beds
