I recently got called to set up an interview at Lenox Hill Hospital for next week. My only concern is that I've never been to the hospital and that I haven't heard much about it, only that it is private and not too big.
If any of you has worked or still works there, could you give me some feedback on both your experience and also on how receptive they are to new nurses?
All Pros and Cons would be appreciated, I'm debating between NYPresbyterian, Mount Sinai, Lenox Hill and Bellevue..
Thanks!

P.S. They also told me that Lenox Hill doesn't have a pediatric unit, so I will have to instead look to L&D or maternity in order to bring some of my skills to use. It's either that or start at MedSurg..
How's Lenox Hill doing now?? I'm a new grad in the interview process and was very excited until I started doing some research and found things like this. However, the job market is extremely tough right now and this might be my only shot, please let me know what you think?! any advice is appreciated. thanks. :chair:
Past tense, LH was *purchased* by NS-LIJ months ago. Deal was closed not that long after St.Vinny's closed it's doors.
North Shore-Long Island Jewish is one of the few New York healthcare systems/hospitals flush with cash (the Lenox Hill deal was done without credit), and the recent uptick in hiring probably is a result of the new money brought to the table.

In your professional opinion, do you think it would mandatory to get an externship in order to get my foot in the door at Sloan, NYU, or Lennox Hill? I wonder what the environment is like today in hiring new grads .. after the merger.

Hi Mofrorocks,
Did you end up getting the job at Lenox Hill? If so, how do you like it & are they still hiring recent grads? Also what year did you graduate?
Thanks!
