I worked in Nicu, at providence, very swanky, progressive unit. They will pay you to come. Very tightly regimented, but excelent care given to infants and familys. I think they give a 2500.00 starting bonus in anchorage and pay for your stuff to be delivered. Nice people, great equipment. Picu, I don't know so much about. If you are serious call Mary Sterling at Providence Hospital in Anchorage, in HR, she is wonderful, and a very nice person to boot! Tell her Linda says Hi!

Hi all, I would like to know if any of you have experienced this and what you did about it. I am a transport nurse, and we just got a new coordinator, she is 31 (6years as a nurse) got her Masters. We all just got our evals done, and mine was totally trashed, I don't belong on enough committies ( only one) and I come to a lot of our meetings there are 3 a month, plus I work 3 (12 hour) shifts plus a 16 hour call shift per week. I present case reviews and I was told I am very good with parents referring facilitys and Dr.s and our little pts. So no raise they won't even submit my eval to human resources for 3 mos. Meanwhile another nurse works only 2 days a week takes no call sits in our office and does her homework and does not come to any meetings and belongs to no commities. She is 28 going to school for her PNP. I am 52 and have 30 years NICU experience, 19 of that as a NNP. She got 3 1/2% (4 is the highest) I was told we are not allowed to discuss our evals with anyone else, and chewed out for talking to another nurse about her eval and mine. I feel discriminated against and would like to know what I can do. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the response, I appreciate it very much. I am working with some folks who act like it has never happened that any thing but heparinized saline is given in the uac. Amandamarie
