SMH and Meriter hospitals

Updated May 05, 2007 at 04:28 PM by admorn03

Does SMH or Meriter hospital have mandatory OT that I have heard so much about. Is it very common here in wisconsin?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Meriter does for sure; according to their nurse's union it is only supposed to be used in an emergency situation, but nurses are still being mandated in non-emergent situations. I'm not sure about St.Mary's, but I'm sure they are a little more conscientious about mandates than Meriter (where I work).

There is no mandatory overtime at St. Mary's. Also St Mary's does not use agency for filling holes.
