Do NOT accept a position with this company

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It was tough but fair for almost a decade. Expectations were clear and applied consistently across the board. Pay was above local average but so was workload.

Cons

Avoid this place. I was a very long term employee when a new CEO was hired. Within weeks people in management were getting fired or leaving. I really thought I was safe. I had been there through several CEOs and had stellar performance reviews. Nope. I was fired. And my replacement was in my spot the next day. Everyone who was not Puerto Rican was fired. Replacements were Puerto Rican. Corporate did not ever respond to a complaint I filed. I had a new job the very next day so I was fortunate.

Registered nurse

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The position provides a competitive base pay rate along with annual increases, contributing to financial stability and career growth. Additionally, the facility offers participation in the CAP (Clinical Advancement Program), which supports professional development and recognizes nurses for their contributions and clinical expertise.

Cons

Nurses are frequently called off when the patient census is low, which affects income consistency and job security. Protocols and procedures tend to change often, leading to confusion and difficulty maintaining continuity in patient care. The nurse-to-patient ratio is often unsafe, placing added stress on staff and raising concerns about patient safety. Additionally, as a for-profit organization, there is a strong emphasis on maintaining high census numbers, often resulting in increased patient acuity and limited resources to support the clinical workload.
