i heard that to work in a uab critical care unit you had to have a year experience? whats the scoop? anybody know what are some other hospitals in bham such as brookwood, princeton, or carraway that hires new grads? which of these is the best critical care units?

I work at UAB, and all of our critical care units hire new grads. We have 2 right now that grad in Dec and just passed their boards 2 wks ago. SICU also has many new grads. At least 4 that grad last May that started right after grad, and they have some right now.

Cardio Trans, I personally think the critical care staff at UAB were very wonderful, caring nurses and staff. My dad was there 3 weeks prior to his death Oct 5, 2005.

To the OP, most if not all the hospitals hire new grads in their critical care units. I know for sure Brookwood, UAB West, and Cooper Green do.

thanks
