Pros

Free parking is all I can come up with

Cons

I was hired as a new grad and was rotated between 3 preceptors. 2 of them could have cared less about teaching and really made it apparent they were chosen simply because the particular day I was working they had the majority of experience. My primary preceptor had been fired from Inova for narcotic diversion (great choice!). The hospital has ZERO personality and ppl walk around like zombies. I could only stand it for a little over a month and left to a nearby hospital in DC where I was offered $32 and given a preceptor who genuinely cared about teaching me. Any new grads who are thinking of working here save your time and energy and apply somewhere else.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. I am disappointed to hear that you did not feel supported as a new graduate nurse. At VHC, we pride ourselves on being a top teaching hospital, and have consistently been named as such by The Leapfrog Group, an independent hospital watchdog organization. Would you kindly reach out to me at VHCexperience@virginiahospitalcenter.com to discuss this in greater detail? -- Grace Greenan, AVP, People and Experience.
