Penn State Health reviews

Administration works in circles; they waste so much money. Management does not listen to the people actually doing the work therefore they keep trying to come up with ideas on how “to work faster and smarter” when they actually “tried that idea of working faster and smarter 5 years ago” but management has changed since then and they aren’t listening to the workers who are giving them info to save money...so frustrating!

Bullying from RNs that had been there longer & were jaded. Favoritism from management & leadership with certain RNs - would give unfair assignments & the “sick” patients to the favorites. Continual problem with staffing and not enough help, aids are lazy and RNs do literally everything. On the IMC side, you’d have 3 total care patients and most other RNs are unwilling to help reposition, majority of the time I felt like I was neglecting my patients if one was more complicated than another. Neurosurgery residents are disrespectful to say the ABSOLUTE LEAST - ignore text pages & calls when their patients are on the IMC side of the unit. When there was a charge nurse on the IMC side, they would sit the entire day & text, rather than help. Management was told countless times, but nothing ever changed. The turnover rate is extremely high as the unit is hard to work on - RNs are not very welcoming or willing to help you learn. Management and Educator are straight up rude when critiquing individuals when they’re on orientation, to the point that they make you cry.
