Spring Valley Hospital Medical Center

Traveler friendly. Staff seemed approachable and pleasant for the most part.

Ratios were terrible. Patient assignments not balanced.

The hospital appears new and clean.

Terrible. The whole unit was travel RNs when I went because 12 or so staff RNs quit all at once d/t low wages, high census, high acuity, and constantly giving RNs 7:1 ratios on Telemetry. When floated to ER holds, ER charge was gruff, unhelpful, and rude when my access to their EMR charting system was locked (they accidentally removed my access 4 shifts early prior to the end of my assignment) and they couldn't fix the issue for over 4 hours. During those 4 hours it took the ER charge 3 hours to just print my patients MARs, and would not provide further help even though I could no longer access orders, labs, MD requests, etc. They would often split one charge RN between two separate units, one of which was a locked unit, so the charge RN was largely inaccessible. Overbearing management; they insisted on doing monitored rounds with even the non-staff RNs and somehow insisted that RNs should be taking 10 minutes per pt during report to make it a discussion between both RNs and the pt, including incoming RN doing assessment and checking IVs before the off-going RN could leave, but also they did not want anyone to take longer than 30 minutes total to report off their 7 pts.
