Facility in disrepair, management incapable running a lemonade stand - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Sutter Health: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Positive team environment and the opportunity to grow. The support by my coworkers and management, the honor of being part of Sutter Health where my work makes a meaningful impact with patient care and I appreciate values that Sutter Health has. I appreciate being able to contribute to Sutter Health,

There are not any cons.

*helpful teammates *low census days regularly

I honestly don’t know how this place has any awards *interview process unprofessional and seemed desperate *pay lower compared to other hospitals in the area *inconsistencies with union contract + union rep not the most helpful *Intensivists sleep between 0100-0500 so have to call remote icu coverage. ED docs will come up to intubate *policies almost nonexistent *HR unhelpful *hiring rep started me on wrong pay scale. Also met other nurses who didn’t read their contract and later realized they were on the wrong pay scale *practices seem outdated (I.e., they don’t utilize phenobarbital protocol for CIWA patients so I’m giving Ativan q2h. They don’t monitor BIS with paralytics.) *wound care nurses will place orders and do assessments based on pictures and don’t actually come to bedside *seems like doctors push comfort care before exhausting all options *dirty (my preceptor left a PA catheter introducer OTA without a clave during ambulating to a chair and when I started looking for a cap, she said this’ll be fast. EW!) *they don’t do daily linen changes with the CHG baths or change the canisters routinely *PTO and sick time is one bank *different campuses share different union contracts *no float pay *no crrt refresher classes but have mandatory annual work place violence education (make it make sense!) *inconsistency with answers depending on who you ask *day doctors seem reluctant at times to talk to patients (pt placed on comfort care, charge rn had to ask MD if he was going to speak to the patient’s family. MD got a call in the middle of talking to a patient and never went back to finish convo)
