Pros
Good experience, high acuity, high census.
Cons
Low staff, high turnover. Does not pay a livable wage. Clinical and non-clinical staff receive same base-rate. Management doesn’t provide books or guides to train new hires, it has to be done by memory, causing discrepancies. No pay or differential for being Team Lead of ED Techs despite numerous more responsibilities including but not limited to pacemaker integration and coordinating all department sitting cases as well as breaking and covering all positions. There is no pay or differential for either training new hires with little to short notice or liability for said new hire. No differential or any pay for advanced skill of telemetry cardiac monitor and charting on all 100+ beds of department, of which includes precepting Nursing level staff RN staff with no compensation as tech making unlivable base wage. Little to no training for RN staff at said telemetry station floated there leading to interpretation error and simple neglect of position of cardiac monitoring, of which there is little over site and compliance management.
