Here's what they said!] [Text on screen: Taylor Belcher, BSN, RN, CCRN Staff Nurse, Neurosciences Critical Care] Taylor Belcher, BSN, RN, CCRN: Gorgeous, beautiful, amazing. It is very, very nice. I did not expect it to be so. It's so nice. Jeri Cerbus, BSN, RN, CCRN, SNIV: Three, two, one. [Text on screen: Brandon Crihfield, BSN, RN, CCRN Staff Nurse, Critical Care Float Pool] Brandon Crihfield, BSN, RN, CCRN: I thought it was very innovative. A lot of technology. The university did a great job keeping the patient at the forefront, making them the focus while also taking into account the nursing staff. From the break rooms with the ample amount of light, the size of the patient rooms. Nice. Very nice. We're used to change, seeing many different environments. It's nice and refreshing to see something as new and innovative as this space. I think it will flow rather nicely for the nurses and the patients. [Text on screen: Taylor Foreman, BSN, RN, SNIII Staff Nurse, Neuro, Trauma PCU] Taylor Foreman, BSN, RN, SNIII: We have a great new cafeteria, first of all. That's exciting. The rooms are ginormous. There's nothing better than being able to move appropriately in your room. You have all the necessities that you need right outside your room. You don't have to go racing to the storage room or anything. Everything is where you need it. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: This is incredible. Taylor Foreman, BSN, RN, SNIII: That's crazy. I cannot be more excited about how open the spaces are. How many windows there are everywhere is going to be the best thing ever. Patients are going to love it. We're going to love it. We're going to be able to see what the weather's like outside. It's going to be the best thing. Taylor Belcher, BSN, RN, CCRN: I love the windows. I know that's something so small, but I just feel like it really changes the day. [Text on screen: Jeri Cerbus, BSN, RN, CCRN, SNIV Staff Nurse, Medical Intensive Care] Jeri Cerbus, BSN, RN, CCRN, SNIV: That's super cool. Now I know what my unit looks like. You have a great view of your patients. I recently was just shown this monitor. This is your travel monitor for ICU patients. This is fantastic. Go get some fresh air on the second floor. [Text on screen: Sara Romer, BSN, RN Staff Nurse, Transplant] Sara Romer, BSN, RN: Whoa. Ohio Stadium. That's cool. Everything about this is incredible. Just... Jeri Cerbus, BSN, RN, CCRN, SNIV: Yep. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: ... having these windows and everything. [Text on screen: Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN Staff Nurse, Transplant] Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: We're both huge fans of how much light is in everything. It's in all the patient rooms. It's in the hallways. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: The cafeteria and the terrace, I just feel like that's going to make everybody just- Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: It's going to be so nice. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: I don't know, just feel better. Environment is everything. The technology's huge. Oh my gosh, the baby call button. All of that. That is so incredible. Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: They thought everything pretty well [inaudible 00:02:23]- Sara Romer, BSN, RN: Yeah. I can't imagine everything that goes into creating a hospital like this. Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: New facilities. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: Yeah. I mean who wouldn't like that. Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: Everything is brand new. Taylor Belcher, BSN, RN, CCRN: This place is very, very nice. This is amazing, absolutely incredible with all the stuff that they're doing. Yeah. Taylor Foreman, BSN, RN, SNIII: It's huge. Jeri Cerbus, BSN, RN, CCRN, SNIV: There's been a lot of questions today of how the transfer to a new hospital will work. I have done it multiple times. They really think of everything. It will be smooth. You will get through it and you'll be like, "Wow, that was really easy." Sara Romer, BSN, RN: I love growth and expansion. I think growth and expansion is just very important. Transitioning. People get nervous about it, but it's important to get better and do better and grow. Kaitlin Vogeler, BSN, RN: It'll all be done in one day too. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: I can't even imagine that. That's going to be so crazy. Yeah. We have the best benefits in the state. That is just a given. Brandon Crihfield, BSN, RN, CCRN: Ohio State's just at the forefront of everything, research, the technology, world-renowned physicians and nursing staff. The nurse to staffing ratios are fantastic. Sara Romer, BSN, RN: I'm never leaving. Yeah. I'm here to stay.
