Pros
The one thing I liked the best was that the nurse's and counselor's worked as a team. If anyone needed help, they got it. We did not usually leave the floor for the evening until everyone's work was done. They did pay me very well, and I worked hard for my salary knowing it was generous. I was going through some issues at the end and my immediate supervisor kept her faith in me. It was a professional atmosphere, usually the milieu felt right, with most of the patient's following direction. It was becoming difficult toward the end of my working there as another for profit hospital was buying us out and we knew things could really change but our team kept up their spirits and the treatment did not change
Cons
For the last 6 months I was there, my supervisor over my supervisor started to find mistakes. She sent me home one time for not entering orders into a chart correctly and suspended me one week. When I came back and asked what had happened, she stated everything is OK, you know how IT is. I did not get an apology. At times I felt upper management was too quick to jump on things and several of these incidences happened to me. I do not know, but I had a gut feeling they wanted to fire me as I was making $90,000 a year and the political moves behind the scenes had something to do with it. I just felt I was not getting the whole truth.
