I'm actually looking forward to working somewhere where I can get some trauma experience. My little podunk hospital in South Carolina did not, but it wasn't terribly necessary out there in the sticks. So I don't know yet, but they probably do. I love Oakland, but yeah, I wouldn't walk around that area by myself at night. I would be very carefull if I were walking outside at night. She used to sayd if she was ever in an accident, have them take her to Highland because they had the best trauma care in the area.Īnyway, no the area around the hospital is not the best. She was quite proud of the work they did and the team they had. If anyone can give me some info I'd appreciate it, and if I need to take any extra safety precautions, beyond not being a dumbass by talking on my phone and walking to the car that would be great. But we're still learning our way around so I'm unfamiliar with the particular area Highland is in. I'd actually like to maybe live there, we're in military housing now so we can get a feel for the area and neighborhoods. Do I need to be especially concerned about the area the hospital is actually in? Please don't attack me lol, I really like Oakland, love Oakland actually and I know the whole place isn't ghetto.
This position is an on call position so it has the potential to have me working late nights. I've been living the small town life the past few years and I understand Highland is the hospital that serves the uninsured and indigent population in the area. Lived here before in 2003 and I'm so glad to be back. I'm from CA originally but we were stationed in South Carolina the last few years so I'm readjusting to the big city life which I LOVE, by the way. A lot of the info I've found is on Kaiser or the Sutter Health facilities. I've tried to do research on the hospital but haven't found much. I'm a surgical tech and I've recently accepted a traveling/temporary position at Highland General. I'm new to the Bay Area, I've been transferred here with my husband who is active duty military.
