Business Outlook
Pros
- The seasoned Nurses are knowledgeable and helpful. - The PCU Nurses are well-versed and dependable. - The orientation process in the PCU is structured and provides you the needed background to ready oneself to be on their own.
Cons
- The ICU utilizes a lot of Agency Nurses, which affects the orientation process of new graduate nurses. The orientation process lacks structure and continuity to successfully prepare a new graduate to be on their own. The approach is to just "throw you into it" and have you figure it out. - Nurses that gossip about fellow staff members and patients throughout the shift (3rd floor, for example). 3rd floor staff throw other staff that float to their unit under the bus.
