Pros

Great health benefits. Hospital uses electronic medical records.

Cons

In my department, staff were overworked and treated poorly. Throughout the hospital, most staff seemed frantic and stressed. Patient care suffered. Interdepartmental communication and cooperation was not very good, and sometimes hostile. I was never afraid of hospitals until I worked here.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
