Registered Practical Nurse (Current Employee) - Greater Sudbury, ON - 23 December 2021

Being forced to move units because of nursing shortage.....not cool. Working 3-5 nurses short every shift.....not cool! These days has made me realize I want out of the profession totally.

Pros

Exit gate off the property

Cons

Have to pay $900/yr for that gate to let me out!

Interesting place to work.

Registered Nurse (Former Employee) - Greater Sudbury, ON - 7 October 2019

Healthcare is a money grab for doctors and bureaucrats, it’s that simple. If they really cared in healthcare they would be more accessible, smaller salaries and less perks for the big shots. More people did due to medical malpractice 20,000-30,000 estimated in Canada more than approx 220 firearm deaths and 3-4000 motor vehicle deaths per annum. Google it. If managers , directors, board members and CEOs really cared they would take pay cuts, open their offices and boardrooms as extra hospital rooms, cut their bonuses and come in to cover shortages. Most of them have licences to practice but they don’t. Or won’t. Front line staff and the public suffer, or worse.

Pros

Helping people.

Cons

Not helping people.

Sudbury hospital

Registered Nurse (Former Employee) - Greater Sudbury, ON - 13 March 2016

I did all my critical care placements at HSN. I'm grateful to all the experience I had at that hospital. I get to see and learn what is really like to work in a hospital environment. On each floor, I get to practice the skills I've learned in class and use my critical thinking to make decisions independantly for the best of my patients. I had great teachers who were extremely strict and learned a lot about time management and responsibility. Overall I will never forget both the good and bad experience, because they all helped me to become a better nurse.
