"I know this may come as a shock, but my favorite place to work, so far, was hospice care. That may sound strange because hospice deals only with terminally ill patients, but for me, there was so much more to this job than that. I had an opportunity to add something of value to the life that my patients had left. My bosses were awesome to work with. They understood how emotional being a hospice care provider can be and were always so supportive of the 'not so good days' when we had a difficult day or a death. They taught me the true meaning of compassion. As far as being similar to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, I can only speak of what I have been told. I know people who have worked here at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and have given exceptional opinions about the management and staff. Their opinions are part of the reason I felt compelled to seek employment here"

"I really can't think of any job I've had that I did not enjoy, but if I had to choose just one, emergency care would be the place I would choose. Not everyone likes working the ER, but I love it! The fast pace and the diverse group of people and medical issues always seemed to present an opportunity for learning and sharing. I do feel like The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia could offer me a smiliar experience. I read about your emergency department and applied with hopes of becoming a part of the emergency team."
