Hey,
I don't know much about Norton or Jewish. I just left an assignment in Louisville at Baptist East. It wasn't bad, they (Baptist East) are moving into a new tower, lot of growth there.
Good luck

I am currently at Baptist East and love it. I will probably extend my contract for an additional 13 weeks. The hospital is expanding and they're going for Magnet Status. I just wish it was closer to home and I'd work there as a regular employee.
appreciate your replies...

Day sleeper (that's a descriptive name). I live in Louisville and work at Norton Suburban Hospital in the OR. This week 3 travelers are joining our department. I'll find out what company they're with when I'm able. We are going through growth too, like Baptist East which another poster mentioned. AND we are loosing staff to several out-patient for-profit surgery centers that are booming here in town. BE and Norton Sub. are in the same neighborhood, away from the city. Jewish has an outpatient facility here too.
I'm a recent transplant from Michigan, enjoy my job very much!
Hope you find a place here so that you can be near your friend.
