  • I worked in the OR department(s) in the hospital. The staff was great everyone was welcoming and were always inviting me to functions outside of work. Management like most places wasn't the best and didn't have a grasp on the real picture but I've definitely seen worse. Their technology even though they had multiple robots and the best of the best equipment they chose to have an HORRIBLE and outdated charting system called centricity that was not user friendly! It was tied for the worst charting system I've ever used next to meditech! Another complaint of mine was I was told I would start on a Monday so I made travel arrangements to get there on a Wednesday I believe and then I was told a few days after accepting the job I had to be there for Pre employment testing that HAD to be done with their facility that required me to be there a day before I was planning on getting there! I had to change all my plans and it made for a very stressful situation that could of been avoided had that been communicated when I accepted the job. A lot of their chart wasn't not electronic so that sometimes caused issues because orders and important documents were kept on paper that was somewhat frustrating and made your job a little hard to do sometimes. Some of these things may have changed by now I worked there in August of 2014 nearly three years ago! All in all as far as the job went I really didn't mind working at this place and it was a positive experience. 01/29/2017
  • Housing was approximately 8.3 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Extended Stay Hotel in Doral. Housing was located in city of Miami. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 2. This was my first travel assignment and I was already stressed so I didn't want to find my own housing so i took the company housing. That was my first and LAST time ever doing that! The hotel itself was nice and had most of the amenities I wanted. The staff was nice however their was one staff member that towards the end of my contract kinda creeped me out because he wanted to take me out on a date which was completely unprofessional and inappropriate! Doral is kinda a rough area I didn't feel unsafe within a few mile radius there was some restaurants and a mall I went to frequently however outside that radius it could kinda be considered a not so great part of town! There wasn't a whole lot of fun things to do around me either which I was disappointed about. The drive to work was pretty easy HOWEVER there was ALWAYS construction going on and a lot of times I would have to take detours that would get me lost forever! Miami is not an easy city to navigate around when you aren't familiar with it! Also traffic was pretty horrible on my drive to work which was pretty frustrating!
  • I worked in the Med-Surg/Oncology department(s) in the hospital. Poor and out-dated technology; useless and multiple duplicate paper charting; poor medication system which allows for frequent potential medication errors; poor pharmacy and laboratory system; poor communication between depts. Difficult communication due to non-english speaking staff and patients. Non experience management; unskilled nursing staff and unwilling to learn when skills offered. Travel time and driving conditions are a nightmare. 01/01/2008
  • Housing was approximately 10 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Broadwater apartments in Hammocks. Housing was located in city of Miami. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 3. Housing area for multiple travel agencies.
