Pros
Great learning opportunities. Overall friendly and supportive staff.
Cons
ED pushes patients to your floor in an unsafe manner. There’s no wait time in between patient transfers. You could get a patient, start your assessment and then get another one while still doing your assessment and have no clue if the new patient is bleeding out or unstable. Incredibly dangerous for the patient and the nurse. Not enough PCT’s. I feel stressed a lot at every shift. The computers are so slow and they log out of every session with tap out which is annoying cause you have to reopen epic every single time. The keyboard trays and monitor arms are all broke in the patient rooms. The discharge lounge is more work than actually discharging your patient yourself.
