nope. - Registered Nurse Merit Health Central Employee Review

for nurse’s week 2025, the admin staff got mad they couldn’t find a front row park in the covered lot, so they banished all staff beyond doctors, supervisors and admin staff to park 1/5 of a mile away, the same week severe crimes happened in those very lots. hours were cut, supplies were limited, multiple directors fired or left so the CNO took over and ran the place down to a nub. nurses jumping ship like their life and licenses’ depend on it! the whole joint can be going down in flames and the CNO only wants to know where you parked before she flounces to her office away from the mayhem (and patients!) the writing on the wall is simple-the administration and a doctor or two run the show and nurses are only background noise to them. Watched an ER doctor hunt down an er nurse who was in the middle of ambulating a patient (because no techs in sight; and when they are on schedule you can find them hiding with their phone) to tell them they needed an updated blood pressure on the patient the dr had literally just been in the room with, inches from the blood pressure cycle button. Yet another dr screeched at a nurse “not to question him!” in front of EMS, patients, family, and other nurses. safe staffing is nonexistent, if it even begins to resemble somewhat safe staffing, nurses are sent home to save $20, because clearly ERs are never plagued with unexpected surges or emergencies requiring more than a skeleton crew. The CEO is blissfully unaware of the chaos being caused by the CNO, the accusations hurled at nurses (using “too many supplies, handing out too many meal trays”), and doesn’t seem to notice that nurses are quitting in droves, all the way from PRN employees to Full Time, and not one care is given. the hospital and cno has even been featured in the news with breakins happening in the new, dark, farther to walk lot everyone who isn’t “of importance, aka supervisors, doctors and admin staff only” has been banished to, stating there is security for those in the lot, when clearly the CNO has never been in attendance in the actual hospital at 7am or 7pm, because the security sits by the ambulance bay, not anywhere near the lot where safety is the concern. perhaps the hospital can be ran by aforementioned chosen ones when the nurses, support staff, and other unimportant employees get tired of the danger lurking in the shadows.
