st. lukes hospital,phoenix,arizonia
I went there in june of 2005 and the hospital was ok , i did rehab, and when they were slow i went to med-surg,telemtry,and phyic ward didn't like that part because it happened a lot. but that city is the most violent city i have ever been in.
mesa az
hi, im at banner dessert in mesa az and im enjoying it here. living in tempe, im just outside the city and accessible to all major places...check out banner....im resigning for 3 more months and if it wasnt for the upcoming summer after march when my assignment is over..i would strongly consider a 3rd contract.
stace
on a safe place to work
i WOULD LEAVE AS SOON AS I COULD. I WOULD NOT RISK MY HARD EARNED LICENSE FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING. IF THIS PLACE THAT YOU ARE WORKING FOR IS DOING THINGS THEY SHOULDNT' AND CUTTING CORNERS WITH A FLAT, THEN I WOULD REPORT THEM AND QUIT.
I worked at Phoenix St Lukes as one of their MANY travel nurses. THis was my first assignment as a traveller. You are not alone when you say you are uncomfortable there. I got floated to ICU frequently even though I am not qualified for that. I simply did my job as best I could and got through it. I loved Phoenix but would not return to that hospital by choice.
