AdventHealth Waterman reviews

Salaries are below average for the Orlando area. The most capable people will not work here because they can earn more in other places. Benefits at this Hospital have always been marginal, but became even worse about a year ago. Many employees and families can no longer afford to pay the mandatory premiums AND the high co-pays in the Hospital's new health plan. Likewise, educational benefits are very limited, and poorly administered. Employees receive the impression that the Hospital does not want them to further their educations. HR processes education reimbursements slowly, and make education applications overly complicated and difficult. Homecare management has done a poor job of making new hires, and seems to promote "yes people" in lieu of finding capable and well-educated managers. The negative atmosphere in the Homecare offices comes directly from the director of the division who seems to be more interested in playing psych games than she is in leading a high quality organization.

Bedside nursing is a tough gig everywhere right now. Staff shortages are real, patient loads are tough and material shortages make the job tougher. I do get the impression that management is working on these issues.
