Hey All,I am a new grad nurse starting at Baptist Hospital in August. I am not from the area and don't know much about what to expect. If anyone has worked there or is from the area and could give me some input I would really appreciate it. Also; - Does Baptist have a designated scrub color for nurses?- Do the inpatient units have 12 or 8 hours shifts? (or a combination)

(We will no longer be "Baptist Hospital" within the next few weeks.Any other questions let me know. What unit were you hired for?
