Pros

Teaching hospital so lots of fresh perspectives on healthcare

Cons

Too many travel nurses. Still short staffed. The pay is awful since they are dragging their feet about finalizing a contract with the union. Many nurses moving to other systems. Ssm just hires traveler nurses instead of replacing with full time staff
