Pros

There is really nothing about that hospital that I would consider a positive.

Cons

I don't even know where to begin... 1. As a patient care tech, I was overworked and vastly underappreciated. 2. There was blatant racism towards any African American employees and management and human resources always turns a blind eye. 3.The staff that has been there for years believe that because they have seniority they have the right to put all of their work on the new hires. 4. The nursing managers and house supervisors all need to be replaced! My manager boldly alerted me that she torpedoed a reference for me to transfer to another hospital because she wanted to hire me full time and was allowed to get away with this. Who does that? 5. The entire Presence Health will lowball you on pay with wages that are laughable at best.

Pros

The pay is descent

Cons

Absolutely terrible place to work! You have 6 patients during the day in tele/med-surg, there's like maybe 2-3 PCTs for the entire floors, theres hardly ever any communication between doctors and nurses, but if you miss something then everyone is on your case. the charting you have to do is way too long and unnecessary, they haven't upgraded any of their technology (we still have to drag VS carts from room to room rather than having monitors in the room) and the call light system is old, loud, and obnoxious, you will leave that place with a headache after hearing that all day. but mgmt doesn't care about any of this, they will haunt you down if you accidentally didn't "chart something" because they audit everything. It's not even about the patient anymore, all mgmt cares about is budget and trying to look good for administration, the nurse is not appreciated in this place! They will squeeze the life out of you. My full time job is at a nationwide recognized hospital here in Chicago, where they care about nurses and treat us well, which in turn creates good outcomes for patients. If you are a nurse who cares about your patients and wants the best for them then don't come here, your patients will die in front of your eyes due to the lack of resources, incompetent staff, and carelessness from this place, and you will feel defeated because nobody will be there to stand up for you.
