Carilion Clinic reviews

Disappointed that many of the doctors and nurses seemed indiffernt to the patients needs. Sometimes a patient would have to wait half an hour or more for a nurse to respond to the call button. Delay in patient care was often the result of paperwork logjams at shift changes. Best staff to work with were the ICU nurses on 9 South.

Poor Health insurance. I had better insurance as a store clerk and it cost less. Takes an act of God to get your short term disability even though you have paid for it, FMLA is a joke even on Worker's Comp. Had to get the doctor to release me just so I could keep my job even though I shouldn't have been back. Worker's comp is terrible, had a shoulder injury was sent to a knee doctor who said nothing was wrong, 6 wks of therapy and permanent nerve damage then referred to a shoulder specialist who could not do anything other than decompress the site. Have to be in pain for the rest of my life now. Management does not listen to employees, short staff on units because of "special treatment" to certain employees with scheduling. Pay is not good, been there over 5 years, make the same a a new grad, even thought I have had a perfect evaluation each year, we are paid the lowest in the state of VA. No benefits worth speaking of. The rules change from day to day and you have no clue who is in charge, never see them. There is no support for staff,. Doctor's do not respect the nurses and do not communicate with the families.
