I volunteer there. I like it. For a hospital, it's very welcoming.

My friend who is a BSN graduate just started there in the ICU, she says the pay is excellent and the campus is beautiful! Orientation is also very generous and they have a 1:1 ratio!

I'm a new grad and started orientation this month. So far it's really wonderful. The nurse educators are fantastic. I work in the ED and so far all the nurses are really nice and helpful.

Hi! Congrats on the job. Do you mind telling me if you work full or part time, 8 or 12 hours, and approximately what the pay is? I have an interview there soon and I'm just wondering how it compares to other places. Also, how long is your orientation, did you have ED experience as a tech? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks a lot.
Full time 8 hrs, starting at 27/hr. Also I didn't have any ER experience. I'm still in orientation but for the ER it's 12 weeks but b/c I'm a new grad it may be extended a couple weeks depending on how I'm progressing...
Good luck with the interview.

I would advise checking into other hospitals in the area first......It is pretty, but I know much happier people at McLaren and Hurley. Their starting pay for RNs is $27.742/hour, which isn't that great. In the first six months that my friend worked there, she paid over $700.00 in union dues. They don't have many options as far as 12 hour shifts are concerned....McLaren is mostly 12hour shifts. Most positions are every other weekend at Genesys. McLaren is mostly every third weekend. There are some awesome nurses that work there, don't get me wrong. Oh, and I THINK that their RN contract is up this year, and if you are local, we all saw how they dealt with the technical workers last summer.......just some things to think about.
