Hello everyone! I am thinking about moving to Macon and was wondering if anyone out there knows if MCCG has a level III NICU. If so, how many beds? Any more info on MCCG in general would be greatly appreciated....good or bad. If anyone knows about the ICUs as well, please let me know how those are. Thanks so much!!! :)

Yes we have a Level III Nursery. The only thing that we don't do is ECMO or flight transport. I am an RRT that has worked here for 9 years and just like any other place it has its issues. But I don't think there is any other place that I would want to work. I am trying to get into nursing school and once I finish I will work here unless I go to another state. If you have anything specific that you would like to know from my standpoint just ask. If you have some nursing questions that I can't answer I can find out for you if no nurse responds. Almost forgot, they recently added a pod and we now have 42 beds.

Hope this helps!:rolleyes:

Thanks so much for the input! What do you love specifically about Macon and MCCG? Do you by any chance know what the orientation would be for me? I am currently an adult ICU nurse and wish to switch to NICU when moving there. If you could find out how long the orientation period is and what is involved, that would be awesome! Do you know if they would give me a tour of the NICU if I came down on a certain day? I would like to see the unit if possible. Thanks so much!!

I am sure they would give you a tour. If you call the nursery and tell them you are interested in working there, they will put you in touch with the right person. 478-633-1299

I like the opportunity for seeing and expererincing a lot of different things. I don't know what the orientation would be but when you contact them they can tell you. You can also check out the website to see if there are any posted opening for that area. http://www.mccg.org.

Hey Pamela RN/RRT

Since you actually work there could you tell me what are the RN's uniform colors are and could you tell me a little about the CV ICU or the Surgical Trauma ICU? Anything you know about any other ICU floors would help me out a lot as well. Thanks
