Pros
Very easy work. Basic ortho cases, general, podietry, and urology. Also will do endo and will phase 1 PACU your own patient. Two ORs and endo room.
Cons
Contract signed was for 4 10s and they told me when I got there it was 5 8s. Cancelled a lot of contracts while I was there. Didn’t explain I would be responsible to do phase 1 recovery myself on my patient and when on call you will not have a second nurse and anesthesia will not stay with you. If the patient is being discharged and the floor doesn’t have a nurse they will also make you do phase 2 and discharge that patient. Pre op will not do blocks so you will also be responsible for doing that before going back to OR.
