Registered Nurse for Sharp Healthcare

Business Outlook

Pros

I got hired as a new grad registered nurse and was trained very thoroughly by very compassionate and knowledgeable staff members. High acuity patients lead to all kinds of different patient situations where I gained a lot of nursing skills. Also, we have "premium pay" shifts at times which equates to double-time/double-pay

Cons

Not the best hourly pay & benefits in comparison to other nearby hospitals. We do not get a pension but do get 401k & 403b. Health benefits aren't included as they are with other nearby hospitals
