Vantaggi
The health insurance is affordable for single or family coverage. The hospital raised its minimum wage from $7.25 to $8/hr.
Svantaggi
Work environments are not always safe for the patients or staff. The management is terrible. They are authoritarians and write you up for being insubordinate if you voice your opinion. They call the staff off and send staff home early even when the census and acuity is high. The hospital is filthy and in need of repair. Patient care is horrendous. The nurses took over 90 minutes to bring me pain medication every time I asked some (following a laparoscopic cholecystectomy) and the only time I ever saw a nurse was when they finally brought the pain medication in. I also hear staff bad-mouthing patients all through out the hospital. The overall morale is despicable. Employees are miserable in every department of the hospital. The hospital is trying to cut $30-million from its budget. Staffing is being flexed off in order to pinch pennies, bed spreads are no longer being used because they cost more to launder. They're more concerned with money than they are with quality patient care, patient/staff safety, and patient/staff satisfaction. RNs are underpaid. On the 3-11 shift, there are 3 nurses, a secretary, and 4 techs on my floor looking for different jobs with different organizations. Apply at your own risk!
