Pros
Most doctors and staff are friendly and helpful. Pay is fairly comparable to other facilities.
Cons
Poor management from the ICU manager, Director, and even up to the CNO. Hardly ever see any of them and have quite poor communication skills. No physical involvement on the unit. They only come out of their office when there is an issue. Very high expectations with poor staffing and often given assignments with unsafe acuity levels. Nurses in ICU are treated as numbers and staffing seems to always be interested in down staffing regardless of how often you have to switch assignments throughout the shift. Very big problem in Concord. Need new management. Very hard to move up in the facility even though they promote advancing in your career. There are hardly any positions to further yourself.
