Poor management at clinical level. Poor clinical skills assessment of registered nursing staff & retaliation runs rampant throughout. Very Unprofessional. For it to be a "teaching" medical center there is absolutely "NO" teaching being done at the bedside (i.e. Mock Codes, pump assessments) and as a result the clinical practice is "POOR". Their is a "majority" foreign nursing staff from African / Caribbean regions w/different values, ethics on heath care, customer service & loyalty & you often see groups of peoples from the same region kind of sticking together if you point out an area of improvement, something that one of their countrymen need to learn, skills that need to be performed better; you will in fact have a "target" on your chest for simply being a "prudent" nurse. The customer service is very poor & results also in poor work ethic. The foreign nursing staff leaves a perception that they want something for nothing as follows: Night shift allowed to "sleep" for an hour & a half during breaks is unsafe / ludicrous because when they are gone said nurse has double the patient load, just for them to return very sluggish & often times you will witness individuals taking longer breaks & the people that are supposed to be watching your patients "never" get up to check on them.
