Business Outlook
Pros
Not much to report, except that it is a busy ER with lots of potential.
Cons
Poorly managed department, no value placed on experienced ER RNs with certification, unsafe nurse/patient ratios which are misrepresented in interview process, unexperienced preceptors, mandatory overtime, their answer to low nurse staffing numbers are to bring in loads of new graduate nurses, very high nurse turnover, no lunch or breaks in 12 hour shifts, no support for nurses, department needs an overhaul of management and staff to bring it up to evidenced based standards of care in the Emergency department.
