Unsafe patient care - Staff RN Indiana University Health Employee Review

Pros

A lot of opportunities within the large company, fairly flexible when family needs come up last minute (at least the clinical manager and shift coordinators are), so many cuts have led to huge bonuses for working overtime, Magnet status

Cons

High turn over and low amount of experienced nurses because of it, tight budget and limited resources (including staff) which leads to very unsafe patient care, expensive insurance, poor training of nurses (orientation just gets shorter and shorter and new employees are being trained by new employees, not the seasoned ones), below market pay for most nurses (new nurses hiring in at a higher pay rate than seasoned nurses), highest raise you can get now is 2% which is performance-based, terrible attendance policy (allowed 3 call ins per year before counseling begins), poor flexibility in scheduling (in advance/when making the schedule), horrible uniforms that you purchase with your own money and they're not even discounted...if you can even get a hold of one because you have to buy online and pay shipping and they're always out of stock (our new hires wear hospital scrubs for months when they are waiting for their shipment to arrive), several travelers throughout the hospital two years after the big rift, senior management doesn't consider the input from bedside nurses, terrible communication between the health care team and between senior management and employees at ground level

good management (depends on the floor you’re placed on)
