Business Outlook
Pros
Team of nurses work great together. Supplies for patients readily available. Nursing supervisors readily available for emergencies. Calling a Rapid Response team was not discouraged. Nursing team tried hard not to assign more than 6 patients per nurse in medsurg.
Cons
Missing breaks and/or lunch was commonplace. Lowest paying system in the area. Pay raises were very small. Vacation time is hard to get on weekends. Constantly being asked to work overtime. Nurses required to float to other medsurg units on a rotating basis, as needed. Shift differential is not high enough for nurses to want to remain on nights. There is a long waiting list for days.
