Registered Nurse (RN) Reviews
What is it like working as a Registered Nurse (RN)?
December 2015
Stressful.
Registered Nurse (RN):
Pros: Patients care.
Cons: Unfair practices. Low, pay.
December 2015
To much upper level management.
Registered Nurse (RN):
Pros: Wonderful people staff.
Cons: The upper levels of management are only concerned about money very little concern for patient safety.
Transfer center continuously accepts patients without available beds on the floor further clogging ED with boarding patients.
December 2015
One of the hardest jobs in nursing.
Registered Nurse (RN):
Pros: Overall good working rapport with fellow teammates, not boring in the least, Have two VERY awesome bosses.
Cons: Very high acuity patients, tremendous hour cut since starting (from 80 hours+ to barely making 70), very poor appreciation from upper management in terms of timely raises to keep up with inflation (just in the region I work, I cannot speak for the other regions).
November 2015
I wish there was more consistency in the nursing department.
Registered Nurse (RN):
This position is wonderful if you have school aged children, but there are unpaid summers off and you cannot apply for unemployment as part of your contract.
November 2015
Challenging.
Registered Nurse (RN):
Pros: I am helping people in the community.
Cons: Long distance of driving between clients.
November 2015
No raises.
Registered Nurse (RN):
The Hospital has given no costs of living or merit raises in years.
November 2015
What certification was worthwhile, and increased payscale.
Registered Nurse (RN):
Go for your 4 year degree right away, don't stop and begin working as a LPN, or 2 year RN, or begin raising a family, or owning a home, until that is completed, then go for your master's degree, and pick a speciality you can really enjoy, and grow with over the next 30-40 years. Some speciality areas are stressful, and will cause "burn-out" such as psychiatric/mental health, addictions, oncology and long term care.
