    Pros

    1.) Many leadership opportunities 2.) Very patient, grounded, and helpful senior nurses.

    Cons

    1.) Over-reliance on travel nurses. Staff retention seems difficult for this hospital as it seems the area (Roanoke) is not a place most people would like to establish roots in. 2.) Pay is average.

    Pros

    Great training well organized great work/ life balance

    Cons

    the pay could be better office politics very short-staffed in many departments so clinical staff are taking on more administrative and billing tasks that they are not well trained in and out of their scope of practice.

    It's a Hospital

    Apr 22, 2023 - RN-1 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Guaranteed work. Always have option to pick up overtime. Carilion Clinic as a company is great overall just be sure to shadow the floor/area you're interested in some are not so great. Always have professional development/continuing education opportunities available.

    Cons

    Mandated overtime. PCTs aren't required to be CNAs and get minimal training before "completing" their orientation . Every unit seems to function as it's own department which means very different standards/expectations from one unit to the other which is shocking for such a large hospital. Some floors have a toxic work environment that may or may not be allowed/fostered by management.

I hope she gets nominated, she 100% deserves it! What a wonderful gal!"
