    Hello everyone
    I recently received a job offer from Washington Hospital Center and thinking of moving to DC for practice. I'm an ER nurse and planning to work in ER and trauma center while in DC.
    Just wondering if anyone here actually work in the hospital(not necessary in ER) and can give a better picture about the hospital, please. Any info appreciated.
    Cheers

    Very fast paced hospital and ER. Only 1 of 2 facilities that is trauma 1 hospital in the DC area. You'll see a lot of the inner residents that frequent the hospital. Nurses are overworked and under appreciated...sometimes short staffed. Place is a political landmine. But it's definitely a incredible place to learn and perfect your skills. Good luck.

    Hey there, I worked at WHC for a year and a half up until this past December, and knew several people who worked in the ER. They said it's fast, but not super crazy..of course, shifts can always go either way. One thing they all said is everyone always gets out right on time, which is definitely a perk!

    I personally worked on a surgical/oncology floor, so I don't have much insight into the ER, but I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about the hospital in general.
