  • I worked in the CTICU department(s) in the hospital. high acuity unit, very welcoming of travelers due to staff shortage. management could not be nicer! good teamwork. very considerate of travelers and staff when it comes o canceling contracts and so forth. ( one of the few hospitals that did not cancel their travelers in the middle of the pandemic; instead hours were cut, but you still had a job and you would be floated among the three ICUs PICU, NICU). the hospital uses Cerner for charting. 11/30/2020
  • Housing was approximately 5 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was RLF in los feliz ( took the stipend). Housing was located in city of los angeles. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 5. found my own housing
  • I worked in the OR department(s) in the hospital. I had a great experience here! They welcomed me right in as I was one of their own! Included me on nurses week activities! For parking there were two options: one was FREE and included lots farther from the hospital but they shuttled you in for free and the other was the structure directly across the street for like $25 a month for day shift. I worked in the OR so my schedule was 5 days a week but never once got cancelled! I had my own private orientation with OR educators for mandatories and computer charting! I would highly recommend CHLA for the OR! 03/16/2015
  • Housing was approximately 7 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was avalon Burbank. Housing was located in city of Burbank. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 5. very expensive to live in Burbank but very worth it! The area was clean and felt very safe. Great shops, stores and dining within walking distance. Yet still 10 min in the morning to work and about 15-20 on the way home! Pretty good commute for LA !
  • I worked in the NICU department(s) in the hospital. You have to pay for employee parking. Staff routinely remind travelers they are not part of the hospital and exclude them from celebrations (ex. Nurses Week). Travelers have no input on their schedule its just given to them 1 week after regular staff have received their schedules. May cancel 1 shift every two weeks and routinely do so. Offer completion bonus, but are unable to collect due to all the hospital cancellations. Over hire travel nurses on purpose. Never got more than 3 days off in a row and frequently schedule day on, day off. 10/27/2013
  • The name of the housing complex was not offered. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 1. I wasn’t offered housing by my travel company. They gave me a stipend only saying LA was too expensive. I do know that other traveling companies offer corporate housing and it was located in North Hollywood which I heard was nice. I stayed at a hotel and traveled home on days off which was 3 hours away.
