Pros

Good people around that make the day go by better. Good relationships with surrounding departments. The good days make the cons forgettable or bearable.

Cons

Staffing levels are low, very likely you will work with very limited backup more often than I'd like to mention. Violent or combative patients are more common than they were in the past and Security is not well equipped/staffed to handle more than a few incidents at a time.

You will do morgue duty with persons who may have died from any or a combination of the above. You will walk miles and sit for extended periods of time . Expect to get thrown under the bus if a patient or visitor complains , or a employee complains.
