What are some of the best hospitals to work at in Phoenix, AZ?
My wife and I have 2 years ICU experience. I want to work in CCU, General ICU, or CardioThoracicICU. Wife wants to work in a surgical ICU or Trauma ICU. Any info about pay rates (other than general pay rate sites), bonuses, or perks would be great. Thank you.

i can't give you any of the bonus info for other hospitals but i work for Banner Good Sam in trauma icu and i love it here. we are a magnet hospital (got the award in 05) and it's the best hospital i've worked in out of the 4 i've been employed by. right now for core staff (i'm not sure about registry or travelers) there is a 60.00/hr bonus for any extra shifts worked. starting pay is around 25/hr (not new grad) we are a 12 floor hospital with a 16 bed trauma icu, 16 bed ( i think) cvicu, and 32 bed med/surg/general icu. our trauma bay holds up to 5 patients. we do not admit pediatric patients unless they are over 100 pounds. we are a very busy hospital icu-wise due to us being in the heart of the city. we are the only banner owned level 1 hospital. other level 1 hospitals here in the valley are -John C. Lincoln (north campus-not deer valley) -Maricopa County medical center -St. Joseph's -Scottsdale Osborn here is the link for our hospital-hope it helps!! http://www.bannerhealth.com/Locations/Arizona/Banner+Good+Samaritan+Medical+Center/_Banner+Good+Samaritan+Medical+Center.htm

Good Samaritan (Good Sam for short) is a great hospital and it's part of the Banner Health System which is either the first or second biggest (I can't remember) employer of Arizona. Good Sam is one of the Level 1 trauma centers in Arizona also. http://www.bannerhealth.com/Locations/Arizona/Banner+Good+Samaritan+Medical+Center/About+Us/Good+Sam+Home.htm St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center (St. Joes) is another major hospital in Arizona. It is the also one of the level 1 trauma centers and was the very first hospital in Arizona. http://www.stjosephs-phx.org/stellent/websites/get_page_cache.asp?nodeId=5001548 I've got to throw in Maricopa Medical Center ("County") also because I work there in the pharmacy. It's part of the county government so it's got some great benefits. It's another level 1 trauma center and it has the Arizona Burn Center, which is the only one in Arizona. It serves as a regional burn center for parts of Utah and New Mexico as well. It also has the only Pediatric Emergency Department which is separated from the Adult Emergency Department in Arizona. http://www.mihs.org/ourfacility/index.html Good luck!

I can't tell you about the perks and what not, but depending on where in the valley you want to live there's Central Valley/Downtown: John C. Lincoln Hospital St. Lukes Good Sam Arizona Heart Institute Phx Children's Hospital On the west side there's: Walter O. Boswell Memorial and Del E. Webb Memorial, both operated by Sun Health which also operates several smaller specialized surgical/care facilities.
