  • I worked in the MICU/SICU department(s) in the hospital. Arrived at assignment to find out the OR had been "down" for weeks due to sterilization issues so lower than normal patient load. Many shifts only had 1 ICU patient (or none), they do not cancel traveler or staff nurses due to low census. I was floated all over the hospital (tele, med-surg, ER, psych), even with absolutely no experience in any of these departments. Travelers always float before the staff. I was asked to extend (which I did, not because I liked the hospital but I loved Denver and it worked with ending the contact right before the holidays). I signed the extension and then all of a sudden the ICU didn't have a need anymore and I was floated to a med-surg floor for my extended contract. Very different experience for me than the other traveler. I was treated very different from staff, the manager and assistant manager rarely even spoke to the travelers. My housing was really nice, located in Cherry Creek. 10/23/2015
  • Housing was approximately 8 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Addison at Cherry Creek. Housing was located in city of Denver. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 5. Housing was great! It was included in contract, therefore did not come out of pay. Gated complex in nice community. About 15 min drive to hospital. Found out it rented for about $1300/month. W/d in apartment. Pool, gym, community events.
  • I worked in the SICU and MICU department(s) in the hospital. Very accepting of travelers. Can't say enough of how great staff and management have been to me. I have been able to schedule and get days off that I requested. They treat you just like an employee. Many travelers go full time. I have been here 11 months and am finally leaving. The workload is very easy and I need a higher acuity. It has been a nice break. Would recommend to other travelers. The process to get a travel assignment takes forever because it is government run. 06/25/2015
  • Housing was approximately 2 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Found my own 1375 High St. Housing was located in city of Denver. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 5. Furnished housing, I loved it. Rooftop is the selling point. I road my bike to work. 1 block from Cheesman park. Only downside is community washer/dryer.
