Will walk you out or cancel your contract for literally any reason or no reason at all. The educator let it slip during the first day of orientation that he puts, on average, 48 travelers through orientation every 2 weeks and he is happy if 1/3 of them make it to the end of their contract. He also said that 90% of the floor staff is travel. During the first 2 shifts on the floor, 4 travelers were canceled, and only one of those cancellations was reasonable. The unit managers air everyone’s dirty laundry out during unit meetings, and will openly shame you for being unable to meet unreasonable expectations. They pick favorites. I was cancelled because I went to the nurse manager about a tech violating HIPPA, when she was trash talking the patients in explicit detail to her mother on the floor….i was labeled a ‘trouble maker’ and a ‘gossip’ , and called lazy in a group message to the entire unit.

Coworkers are friendly and helpful, free parking.

Acute care has terrible leadership. They have even threatened to turn nurses into the board of nursing for not doing bedside report. There is a huge lack of communication between different departments and doctors. Doctors often do not put in their own orders. A lot of the techs have to be reminded to do their jobs. Most of the staff are travelers, they cannot retain staff. It’s a hostile work environment with little support for nursing staff. Do not recommend working here.
