Novant Health reviews

Over worked, underpaid. I have a 4 year degree, worked there for 3 years and wasn't making $21.50 an hour. I worked 325 hours of OT my first year, 400 of overtime my second and only brought home $41K. Patient ratios are unsafe, 6-to-1 for nurses and 16-to-1 for CNAs. I did hear that once I left, sometimes the ratio would be 7-to-1 and the nursing supervisor would tell staff "just deal with it." Just deal with being charge, having 6 patients and offsites, and only making $21 an hour? Never again. I would work 5 days in a row, have one day off, then work then next 4 on. On my days off, I would get text from my assistant manager telling me to "Quit ignoring me and come in" even though she never took patients. She had no problem leaving at 3pm every Friday, but then they shoved it down our throats that Teamwork was a top priority and one of the 5 pillars of excellence. This was an insane place to work. I'd have my boss walk around talking about how money isn't important while I can't make ends meet as a nurse! Advice is to NOT WORK AT NHRMC. Oh, and because I left before my 5 years was up, I lost HALF of my vacation time I had earned while working there! My new hospital HR told me that NHRMC policy of taking your vacation time if you leave early was piracy. I almost quit nursing because NHRMC had such a stranglehold in the area. I moved to the NorthWest of the country and my pay doubled and I only take 3-to-1! Good riddance, NHRMC.
