best hospital to work for in Washington state

[badtz143]

What do you guys think are the best hospitals to work in as an RN here in Washington?

ummm . . . actually the relative lack of new grads at sacred heart may be a good thing, and the fact that the uwmc has lots of them may be a bad thing. it means that sacred heart has mastered the art of retention of experienced nurses while the uwmc has not.

i disagree. it is more an indication of the lack of jobs in spokane, that there are far more jobs in seattle. sacred heart nurses are a passive, a beaten down lot, from an abusive administration. deaconess nurses are the same.

there are too many spokane nurses supporting their families, who have laid off spouses who cannot find employment. employment is much better on the coast than in the inland nw. that is why all of our children go off to college and never come back to spokane.

spokane is an employment black hole. always has been and always will. and that is the way employers want it.

jmho and my ny$0.02.
