    I am considering a couple of travel assignments in New York. My specialty is dialysis. One of the choices is Beth Israel in Brooklyn (others include Suffern, West Harris and Albany). Anyway, a couple of years ago I was contemplating travel and Beth Israel was option back then too. It makes me wonder if maybe it's a horrible assignment and nobody wants it and that's why it's either still available or available again. Anyone have experience with Beth Israel? Is it a good place to work?

    No idea what it's like to work there, but I live close by and it's a pretty crappy hospital as far as patient care goes.

    Hmmm, well that's something to take into consideration. What's the neighborhood like?

    The area isn't terrible; immediately surrounding the hospital is mostly Jewish, private houses or 2 family homes and a few apartment buildings; parking is probably pretty tough over there and the closest train station is about a mile away. the bus lines that stop at the hospital do travel through some fairly rough areas. I would try to find a place in the Marine Park area, but it's mostly private homes for sale, not a ton of renting options.

    Since it's a travel nurse position I'm hoping they'll find housing for me somewhere nearby.
