Small Town Politics, Beware - Outpatient Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Oswego Health Employee Review

Oswego Hospital is a wonderful place to work, with a supportive and welcoming staff. The management is effective and approachable, creating a positive work environment. The team works well together, ensuring quality care for patients while promoting a strong sense of collaboration. It's a fulfilling workplace that values both professional growth and employee well-being.

HR can be really difficult to reach.

The patients. Also, they don't mandate (force you to work surprise double-shifts), but the trade off is that the pay isn't great, and you're working for scumbags.

I would encourage you to look at the 1-star Google reviews for additional context. I worked there for 1 3/4 years, and all of these bad reviews do not at all seem like exaggerations to me. Much of it, I saw on a daily basis, to my great shame. I should have left much sooner, and reported them. Fortunately, it looks like some patient family members are considering reporting them to The Joint Commission (Government oversight for the Healthcare industry). The sense of professional integrity is severely lacking, they are consistently understaffed, the culture is one of the most toxic I've ever been in. If you are motivated to make a positive change you will be reprimanded for it, if not fired.
