Pros

Everyone is friendly, typical to say hello to other staff members as we walk the hallways. This hospital is a teaching hospital, lots of students nurses on Thursdays and Fridays on some floors that shadow a nurses. Ratio 1:1 . They are fast on acting on life saving methods . Pharmacist are great at their job by communicating with nurses and doctors to clarify orders.

Cons

Patient ratio is the biggest complaint I hear from nurses. There's too much work and not enough staff. My co workers and I work a lot of overtime .
