I have just relocated to seattle from dallas. Most likely I will live in north seattle (everett, bothell?). Any suggestions are good hospitals to work at? Also, I noticed many hospitals are unionized. Good/bad?
thanks!

Bothell is on the Eastside of Lake Washington (Metro Seattle is on the westside). Great area to raise a family here although expensive. On the Eastside, Overlake Hospital and Evergreen Hospital are the two choices, both excellent. I work for the former and it is a excellent place for nurses to work with superior pay and bennies.
In Seattle you have your pic of numerous large hospitals including Swedish, Harborview, and the UofWA. Harborview is our level 1 trauma center for several states and gets EVERYTHING under the sun. The UW is the #1 primary care medical school in the nation and the hospital is incredible.
In short, you have your pic of wonderful hospitals here.
