Hi Everyone!
I have a job offer to work in Sinai Hospital in Baltimore. Anyone here who is working on this hospital? May I have feedbacks from you (be it positive or negative)? How is it working in CCU or on it's stepdown unit?
By the way, how about living in Baltimore. I am single male nurse.

Baltimore isn't a bad city, but it isn't great. Prices are decent. There are some great neighborhoods in the city, and some nice areas outside the city. But, we are also one of the worst cities in the country for violent crime, drugs, AIDS, and a few other nasty things. Definately do some research into the neighborhood you wish to move to (and some of the best, and some of the worst, are in the areas surrounding Sinai).
As for Sinai, I've never worked there so I only have a little info to share. It is a Jewish hospital only a couple miles from the city's main Orthodox Jewish community. You will have a lot of Jewish patients, both religious and non-religious, so you will learn alot about our needs (shabbos, kashrus, tznius, negia, etc). Beyond that, the areas nearby that it serves are both upscale and "the hood", and it is pretty varied ethnically, so you will see a lot of ethnic and economic diversity so it would help if you are open minded/progressive on these issues and not racist or anti-semetic. I don't know anything about the administration.

Hi there!

I don't have any nursing advice but 10 years ago I worked there as non-licensed personel and it was pretty nice. As for cities I love Balto. Moderately priced, diverse population and close to NYC. Good luck.

Not sure if my two cents will matter...but I wanted to share that I had a baby delivered in 2006 at Sinai...and my experience with the nurses, staff and everyone that I came in contact with was a most pleasing and satisfying experience. They were wonderful, not only to me...but to my other children who visited just after the birth of my youngest daughter. I appreciate everything and everyone who made my time spent there a pleasant visit. (c-section) ...what a caring facility:redbeathe
