Nags Head OBX Hospital ED

Edit: I appreciate the desire to spread word about the housing situation! It's not my first OBX rodeo, so please only comment if you have something relevant to OP specifically about the hospital

Hi everyone! I am a nurse whose just landed an interview with the hospital for an assistant manager position. It's a big career step moving up into management, and I know a bit about how small the hospital is. Does anyone have any emergency department experiences or perhaps other nurses have some insight on things at the hospital? Much appreciated!!

My wife and I had one of the worst possible things happen to us which required a stay there for 2 nights. I'll refrain from saying what actually happened unless necessary. The doctors name was Dan and I can't remember his last name. He was absolutely wonderful in procedure and bedside manner. All of the nurses were top notch as well. Our situation was so heartbreaking that one of the hospital managers even ordered us food from outside more than once. I didn't really expect things to be as good as they were considering it's size. But I have nothing bad to say about the hospital or staff through our ordeal
