Well, my license finally came through!
Anyone have suggestions about New York hospitals?
Thanks!

Where in New York are you looking, are you looking in New York City or anywhere in New York State?
I'm looking to be right in the heart of Manhattan!

I work at NYU Medical Center and I love it! I know they definitely take travelers, having worked with one in the OR as a student in clinicals. It's on 33rd St. on the east side of Manhattan.

how did it take for license? I am working on getting NP license there and have heard different things, i called they said 6-8 weeks, a recruiter called and they said 2-4 weeks.
It took about 10-11 weeks to get my license (I was heading toward the 3 month mark when it finally came through).

ohh I would love to go to NYC but I am scared to death to go to such a huge city. I would love to live in Manhattan, but worry about housing. I would hate to be housed outside the city. But isn't it difficult to find apts there?
I hope I can go there during thanksgiving/xmas season someday for an assignment.

Beth Israel also takes travelers. In all specialities I believe.
Good luck!

NYU, St Lukes/Roosevelt, Methodist, Lutheran, Bellevue and Pres all take travellers. I don't know your specialty but I've heard terrible things about NYU L&D/PP.
Don't limit yourself to Manhattan for sure! NYC is huge!

I just completed an assignment on L&D at NY Roosevelt Hosp..... I couldn't get out of there fast enough!! Started counting down my contract days after my FIRST shift....
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOSPITAL FOR L&D ASSIGNMENT!!!!
Carcam,
Could you tell me why you don't like Roosevelt's L&D? I've heard good things about it, since they have the birthing center for women who want a natural birth experience. What specifically was so bad about it, if you don't mind me asking?
