Exempla or Centura?

I am looking at getting a job at either Exempla St. Joseph's or a Centura hospital (St. Anthony's North, St. Anthony's Central). I plan to stay in the Mom/Baby area. Both hospitals seem to be interested in hiring me so far, so I was interested in getting some input from you guys to help me decide which I'd prefer. Any thoughts on either system or hospital?

Thanks!

Do you have any preferences for where you want to live (city of denver or suburb)? That could make a difference for some people in deciding where to work, esp with the gas prices. st anthony north is in westminster (suburb) while the other two are in denver.

Good luck in whatever you decide.

Saint Anthony's Central is right on the edge of Denver. It is moving a few miles west to Lakewood in a few years (brand new hospital). Saint Joe's is down town and had the largest OB service for a while (not sure if it still is).

Hi,

I was interested in knowing of that new hospital had opened in Lakewood. If so, what is it called?

Thanks!

Apparently they are going to call it Saint Anthony's Hospital West.

I actually work at both St Anthony North and St Anthony Central (I am in the regional float pool for centura). I really like both of these hospitals and they treat their employees well I would say. The hospital they are building is going to be where St. Anthony Central will relocate to in a couple of years.

Hi there,

I am trying to decide between Centura RFP or the float pool at Lutheran. Any insight/advice? How is scheduling, flexability, w/centura? Any negatives??? I picked Littleton, SAC, and Porter. Do you ever float to any of these? I appreciate any insight you could give!

Thanks!!!

Hi, SOrry I didn't see your question until now. I work for the Regional float pool. I like it a lot, WHEN I WORK. I get cancelled ALL THE TIME. So it's not worth the good pay, when you never work. Otherwise, it's great.
