Pros

It's a paycheck. The food was good. My coworkers were friendly.

Cons

CEO is over 3 hospitals. He is too overwhelmed to know what is going on at each facility. HR is only for the corporation. If you go to them with a complaint they will find a way to fire you. We have had several patients die due to bad nursing care. Two bled out. These deaths never should have happened. Not enough nursing staff who know what they are doing. They hire LVN's to do RN's jobs. They pay them less than they would an RN, which saves the company money. All of the management staff, such as Quality Control, CNO, HR, and education are LVN's. They don't care about experience or education when it come to management. If the CEO likes you and thinks you're cute, you get the job. The liaisons are paid a bonus for each patient that is brought in, so they admit anyone that they possibly can, whether they are too sick to come to Health South or not sick enough to need 24 hour rehab care. It's all about the money.

Pros

Great team to work, people are always willing to help each other. The clinicians genuinely care about their patients and it shows every day. You feel like you’re making a difference in patients’ lives. Good teamwork between departments. Leadership listens to feedback and wants the hospital to keep improving. Positive work environment with coworkers who care about doing a good job.

Cons

Healthcare is busy, so some days can be stressful. Things can change quickly, so you have to be flexible. Communication between departments can always improve. Like most hospitals, staffing can be tight at times.
