Greetings! Welcome to the neurosurgery blog site for Barnes-Jewish Hospital, St. Louis, Missouri ... nursingforneuro-or.
We are continuing to build our site. We haven't received many comments on our blog as of yet, but the word is getting out. We wanted to share more important information about Barnes-Jewish Hospital.
U.S. News & World Report ranked Barnes-Jewish Hospital's Neurology and Neurosurgery services as the best in Missouri and in the top seven in the country.
Neurosurgery brings together an expert, multidisciplinary team to treat disorders of the brain, spine and nervous system.
A wide range of factors from genetic abnormalities or immune system deficiencies, to injury to the brain or nervous system can cause neurological disorders and diseases. As such, neurological disorders may be diverse, chronic and challenging to treat. Barnes-Jewish Hospital’s physicians, nurses and allied health professionals achieve the best medical care for each patient by working as a multidisciplinary team to develop a customized treatment plan.
For a referral to a Washington University neurologist or neurosurgeon at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, call 314-TOP-DOCS (314-867-3627) or toll-free 866-867-3627.
BJH is a primary stroke center as designated by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). The neuroscience medicine floor, 11400/11500, has 53 beds, the stepdown unit, 10500, has 21 beds and the neuro ICU has 20 beds.
BJH is also one of only three hospitals in the country to be certified as an epilepsy center, another JCAHO designation. To become an epilepsy center, a hospital has to prove that they have an interdisciplinary team, a performance improvement plan, and all neuroscience staff has to complete eight hours of training on the specifics of seizures and epilepsy.
If you have the talent, dedication to excellent patient care, and desire to be a part of one of the best hospitals in the world, drop us a comment line and let us know. Share some of your related experiences with us. Just click on the "comments" link below. We would love to hear from you.

As a neurosurgery locum tenens, you can designate any location of your choice as your hometown but will take on either short-term or long-term contracts in other areas where there is a temporary need for your services. Such a professional works on a contract basis to cover for other neurosurgeons while they are away from their duties for an extended period of time for vacation or other such reason. Such a transient position allows you to continue to work in your field and residing even when a permanent position in your local area is not available. This type of position makes it feasible for you to continue to search for a position in your area and leaves you open to take such a position as soon as the current contract you are working on ends.
