Pros

I have money to take care of my family I love the people I work with- The wonderful patients

Cons

no connection between Corporate Scum and actual "worker bees" \ Corporate scum allowed to come into a facility and "clean house" - keep in mind they clean house without the knowledge of what a person does on a daily basis- BUT can decide if they are expendable. My particular deadline driven department is understaffed- I have not SEEN one of these "corpies" come and offer help. WHY DO WE NEED 20 CHIEFS TO HANDLE 5 INDIANS? Basically that is what it comes to. They HIRE Copries with FAT filled salaries to come in and supervise the Executives with FAT Lined salaries - who in turn supervise the supervisors- REALLY ?? Hey HCA how about this: GET RID OF THE FAT!!! OR have CORPIE do the DAY to DAY grind with their bloated salaries. WHY would any CORP. get rid of the PEOPLE who actually work - Check in, check out, patient problems, ins verifications, scheduling , authorizations, referrals..OH by they way that referral that is needed - it is an out of network request... patient needs it right away, their LIFE is on line... have fun with that and keeping on task with all the other DEADLINE driven duties. ASK a CORPIE to do it.... BET you their fat filled pay check they couldn't and wouldn't. BUT lets hire MORE OF THEM. Why get rid of they people who help WITH the Patient care... ISN'T that what HCA claims to be??? WELL ACTIONS speak louder than FAKE ASS statements.

Pros

There some flexibility with scheduling and they let you pick up as many shifts as you want and pretty much your own schedule.

Cons

Very poorly managed, chronically understaffed but managers are dismissive and deny it. The support from staff is inconsistent, the staff nurses are either fresh new grads or very bitter nurses who don’t want to help and expect you to handle everything by yourself as a tech. Most nurses here are PRN’s on contracts that get floated so it’s really hard to expect consistency in the staff you work with and build trusting relationships. Management will promise to train you as a unit secretary but will never follow up. They also agree to help you get opportunities for learning and growth but refuse to follow up or forget about it altogether, despite reminders. It’s not a priority. If your goal is to grow and learn more this is not the place. It’s running on fumes at 95% of the time. Very high turnover, we struggle to keep staff. They’ll call you in to pick up when they’re understaffed with no incentive or something minimal like “swag” (some gear). Very poorly compensated and you will not be appreciated for the hard work you do. Also it took 2 months for them to get me started despite numerous attempts to reach the HR, Management etc.
