HCA HealthONE reviews

Staffing ratios are terrible, constant short staffing and working over matrix. Ageism is a problem at this hospital, look around you, Other than the CFO, the C suite, and directors are all under 45ish. Managers on most all the floors are in their late 20s and 30s and have no experience, they also have little capability to really communicate with their staffs. Drinking the cool-aid and being young is what will get you ahead here, not experience, education or ability. NO real voice, (overheard from a C suite person, 'Move resources around as you can, they will think we are listening to them). Pay and increases are well below average. They want to be the best, but don't do anything to retain good experienced nurses. No opportunity to advance if you are over 50. Watch what you say, this place is overloaded with snowflakes in higher positions.

Hospital continually cuts hours for CNAs until they can't pay their bills and they leave. CNAs are sent home in the middle of the shift if the staffing "matrix" doesn't show a high number of patients. Hospital finally told floor nurses on a telemetry floor they would have to work without CNAs. Seriously? This hospital group (which is part of HCA which had $2.2 Billion last year in net profit) cannot afford to keep minimum wage CNAs on staff full time. That's how upper management makes their bonuses. Obscene business practices and I would not send anyone I cared about to any HealthONE or HCA facility for treatment as call lights and phones blare away while nurses are in patient rooms.
