San Diego NICU

Published

I am going to be relocating to SD this summer and I'm trying to get an idea about jobs in the area! I currently work at a top rated Level III NICU in the area and I am looking for the same! From going through the posts I can see that these are the "best" options:

Childrens

Sharp-Mary Birch

UCSD (Hillcrest)

Navy (Balboa)

Does any 1 stand out as the "best"? I am looking for a NICU that does it all...and gets the toughest patients (its what I'm used to!). I will be coming with a little under 3yrs experience and I'm wondering what the payrate is for these hospitals (is any 1 pay better?)

Any info would be great!!

I'm in San Diego and work at Rady Children's. I would say look at them and Sharp Mary Birch first. Children's also staffs a couple of other hospitals' NICUs too. Scripps Encinitas and UCSD? I was just looking at their job positings today fantasizing about a new job and they do have NICU positions open. Balboa's NICU from my understanding isn't that intense. Don't quote me though since that's not my specialty. Besides if you work at Balboa you'll be contract, almost like traveling, and I don't know many people that are satisified with the company. On the other hand if you can get a GS position with the Navy don't pass it up, it comes with great benies. Children's website is http://www.rchsd.org Check them out, I really like it here.
