I worked at scripps chula vista and hated it. It wouldnt be so bad if you spoke fluent spanish. I work for USCD and I love it. I keep extending my contract. I never worked for a teaching facility but I love
it. The only downfall is you may be asked to float to there other hospital in LaJolla

What's wrong with Thornton and La Jolla if you work for UCSD med center?
Also do they give you raises at UCSD? Anything I should mind? Thank you from the bottom of my heart of your input. Thanks

I actually just took a permanent position here at UCSD hillcrest. I didnt like Thornton becuase of multiple reasons. No blood drawer, no transport aid. A lot of patients are "up scale" and want "up scale" treatment when you dont have the help. It makes the staff more uptight too. I was just miserable there. Just my personal opinion. And we just got a 6% raise with our new union contract. They use a pay scale that goes by years of experience. Hope that helps!!

i'm a student, but right now i work at sharp (sharp community medical group, actually) with case managers that handle pts over the phone. i really love working here, so if that's what you're looking for, i'd recommend it!
