Can anybody provide any information about Christ Medical Center such as working conditions, pt ratios(peds), acuity levels of certain peds units, pay scale, union?, recruiters, etc. Any information would be helpful!

Good points EdwardIL......and Advocate is seeking Magnet status, but does not have it at this time.
Cook County is also under collective bargaining, as is U of I. I don't know who else has unions.

I'd be very careful where U of C is concerned. They've had some pretty serious labor and staffing problems. My friend's son had surgery there, and she was so disgusted with the care she said she'd never go back.
If Magnet status is important to you, look into Rush or Children's Memorial.
Good luck!

I know this post is kinda old like about 6 years old, but I was also thinking about working here but wondering if the pay scale has gone up for new grads? Thanks
