Pros

The teamwork & interaction between the Nurses, Physicians & support staff has been nothing short of outstanding until very recently.

Cons

HCA's Charting in Meditech is substandard. Physicians & Nurses alike have openly stated that it is not conducive to providing quality care to patients & that it simply isn't safe. The upper management have cut staffing, cut pay & appear to have an "increase profits now & cash out" corporate mentality. The adoption of an ancient charting system & the recent changes in staffing are a huge warning sign for current or future employees. It appears HCA is no longer interested in providing high quality care for patients or taking care of its employees.

Pros

I worked for HCA for over 20 years. They were very conscious of patient satisfaction and good care. Recently. It was all about money and dangerously cutting staff. Several patient falls, and only hiring new grads. Having unbearable assignments of up to 8 or more patients with the charge nurse at times having to take just as many in order to take some of the load off the nurses. Very poor nurse moral, and no plans in place to make any of this better. Finally left, vowing to never let a hospital turn me in to a nurse I know I never want ro be.
