Pros

Overtime is always available and there are bonus plans you can sign up for. PRN staff can work full time hours and get paid alot more. But you do not get any benefits besides a 401k.

Cons

This place is all about making money. They could care less about thier staff. The turn over rate is extremely high. Charge nurses often have full teams. Icu nurses are often tripled. You will be written up to prevent a transfer from occuring. Acuity means nothing. If there is an open bed then you will take a patient regardless if you have the proper staffing or not. Frequently short staffed. They like to employ mostly new nurses they can pay very little starting around 19 an hour and who will not question thier orders. The administrators support each other and they DO NOT HAVE YOUR BACK. Stay away!!

Pros

Great culture and environment, at least on the Med-Surg 6th floor. Strong teamwork and collaboration among the nurses.

Cons

Patient-to-nurse ratio is 7:1, and charge nurses also carry patient assignments. Typically, there are only two techs for 44 patients, many of whom are bedbound from nursing homes. Collaboration between some physicians and nurses is poor. Team meetings are inefficient—every nurse is required to attend 30–45 minute discharge discussions with leadership, case managers, PT, pharmacists, and physicians, even when the patients aren’t theirs. This leaves the floor supervised only by techs during that time. Unlike other hospitals I’ve worked at, the director has never been seen assisting at the bedside in over a year. Nurse turnover is high, and those who remain are often tied to work contracts or reluctant to leave due to local circumstances.
