Mission Health reviews

When I first began working for Mission about 10 years ago, it was considered the best place to work. It was very difficult to even get a job there because no one wanted to leave. However, times have very much changed. It went downhill fast over the years and now that we were bought out by HCA, things are worse than I ever imagined. HCA is a for-profit company and they very much act like it. Nurses who had worked previously for them warned the rest of us. They have no problem lying to your face. They told us there wouldn't be any serious changes immediately but as soon as they officially took over, they changed everything for the worse. They said no one would lose their job and now every week, they're announcing that more jobs are being eliminated. Patient care is suffering. There are more falls, more extubations, more pressure sores, etc and they could not care. They don't listen to us when we speak up, they just brush us off. So many experienced nurses have left and more are leaving all the time. Floors are now mostly stafffed with new grads and travelers (btw, they own the travel company). They're sending HR around now to find out how to get nurses to stay. There is a reason they're offering such a large sign on bonus and higher pay. They now realize you can't run a hospital without experienced staff. Work here at your own risk. The high stress and anxiety isn't worth it.

Work environment is punitive in nature. Not much support if you are learning and not excelling fast enough. The emails all say we are here to support you, but I have not even met most of you and when I did it was in a crowded room to drum up support for changes and budget cuts.
