Business outlook
Pros
Most days off approved by managers, pay is good. Financial problems brought on by bad moves like building a huge ED and the Heart Pavilion a few years ago. There has to be patients to fill them with. They just close units to compensate.
Cons
Management are puppets to the higher level of administration which doesn't help the nurses. Dangerous nurse/patient ratios. They closed half of the observation unit and there were no other jobs posted. Oh well, time to find another job. Mandatory down staffing makes it hard to feed your family. Staff education is a low priority. Most departments are really overworked and stretched to their limits.
