Pros

I worked in the Respiratory department. The Respiratory manager Alex was a fantastic woman. She does all the on boarding education and she’s your number one person to call for any clinical information scheduling information. She was fantastic. 

Cons

They need to upgrade their RT equipment and their charting system
