Centinela Hospital Medical Center Nurse Experiences

[AngelinoRN]

I want to begin a thread here where nurses who have had work experience at this hospital can share their opinions tactfully to give others an idea of what working in the hospital might be like. This is information for students sending applications, new hires, registry workers, travel nurses, etc. Please be respectful and do not list names. Please only refer to your own experience and specialty.

I want to begin this trend for other hospitals. So if you work somewhere else, please start a thread and tell all.

I work on telemetry day shift. it is a rat race there are days i had two discharges and two admissions. patient ratio is 4:1 in general new grad and other nurses are very helpful but some CNA's monitor tech and secretaries who work their long time make you feel they own and run the place you better watch out.

Which Telemetry floor do you work on?...I know its been a year since you posted...I did registry there just this past week. One Telemetry floor was wonderful..the other was plain awful

I've been applying to several positions at this hospital and haven't gotten a call back yet. Should I call HR to follow up? Should I walk in personally to turn in a resume and possibly meet the nurse recruiter? Any advice will be much appreciated! :)

I know this is older but did you ever get a response? I too have been applying at Centinella with no luck. I did go down to HR, they wouldn't even talk to me, they said all of applying is done online. I just want to find a job!!!

Hello,

I was just hired on Monday as a new grad on the DOU floor. How long does it take to process the paper work? The nurse manager that hired me said 2 weeks before HR contacts me to sign the paper work ?
