2. Greenville, ECU, and PCMH

   Nysloss replied to smg's topic in North Carolina

   Long story short, PCMH was terrible for me and my classmates. Three of us agreed we were absolutely going there -- wanted to be nowhere else. Recruiter contact was horrible. Interviewing and getting a position in the area you really wanted was nex...

   We have televisions in the pt's rooms (ED/Trauma Center). It reduces anxiety and complaints about how much time we're taking. I think it's awesome, personally.

    Nysloss replied to momstew's topic in New York

    Being originally from the area, and previously working in Newburgh (St.Luke's), I wouldn't work there -- solely because of the extremely high crime rate and likelihood that the crime could hit you!
