It’s down the road from beach… The parking is close to the entrance and is free There’s a Krispy Kreme next door.

I cannot stress this enough… RUN and don’t look back. If you want to work in a hospital where “this is the way it’s always been” when they decide to do things completely against protocols and just basic safety and decency, then here is the place. The ER is extremely unsafe to admit a child to. The PICU is extremely unsafe as well. There is you and one other RN on the unit. That’s it. No other nurses, no other staff, just you two. And if you have 4 critical patients, it’s still just you two. The one single doctor who works in the picu is on call 24/7 so he is not in house unless you call him in. So again i emphasize it’s just you two. On top of that, the doctor’s decisions are extremely questionable and at times outright dangerous. Ever seen a doctor use ChatGPT to program ventilator settings?? There is no accountability for action for the doctor or for the nurses. The nurses excuse the doctor’s behavior with “he’s such a nice person and he’s really tired. He’s on call 24/7”. The manager excuse the nurses’ behavior with “yeah that’s unacceptable. Thanks for bringing it to our attention” and that’s where it ends. I’m telling you don’t work here if you have any care for your license or children’s safety. And to put the icing on the cake, when i put my two weeks in, the manager took me completely off the schedule and when I applied for my next job, she rated me a 1/5 and recommended to not hire me. I worked here for 6 months. I began with such excitement for finding a picu to work in in this small town. But that quickly dwindled as I was experiencing such unsafety and reportable occurrences daily. Floating-wise, you float just about every other shift. The picu shuts down more than it’s open. No patients means you are whatever employee the hospital wants you to be. You can float to the pediatric floor to be a nurse (with one other nurse and no doctor in house) or you can float to anywhere else in the adult world to be a tech. I floated to adult telemetry monitoring and adult med surg floors to take a team of 12 patients to be a patient care tech. They also use meditech (enough said) and a significant amount of paper charting. They use paper charting for continuous drips and their titrations and their wastes. It’s super sketchy to me. Sidenote: if you work night shift, the only food options you have is a vending machine. Anywhooo please for the love of all that is right in the world, do not work here. I promise it’s in your best interest.

Updated facility, friendly staff

Management, no support staff (no techs, no lab personnel)

Traveler friendly

Cost of living

None.

Schedule flexibility, lateral workplace violence from all administrators. Borderline harassment everyday. Charting sucks. No team work. No ethics. If you want to risk your nursing license and livelihood by all means take a contract here. Not worth any amount of money. Absolutely CRAWLED out of this facility. 0/10.
