Alegent healthcare

Specializes in LTC, home health, private care.

Hello, everyone! I am thinking of moving to Omaha when I complete my RN, and it seems as though Alegent runs most of the hospitals there.

Does anyone out thee work for them? How do you like it? Any advice would be very helpful.

Thanks!

Specializes in LTC.

Alegent is almost a monopoly here but there are other places.

Creighton University Medical Center

Methodist Hospital

Children's Hospital

Nebraska Medical Center

In 2009 or 2010 there will be a new hospital, Bellevue Medical Center.

The only bad things I have heard are about Creighton ER and I think that is due to its location.

Specializes in ER.

What specialty? I have worked for Alegent in LTC, Avantas( Kind of a system wide floatpool with GREATPAY) and At Bergan Mercy Medical Center In the ED. Alegent has 5 hospitals in the metro-Immanuel, Bergan, Midlands, Mercy and Lakeside.

Alegent is a god system and is growing by leaps and bounds. I am presently travel nursing looking to get back into Alegent. Hopefully in the NICU at Bergan.

OR would be great, but since I'll be a new grad I might need to spend a year on Med surg to develop my skills.

i've been with alegent health for over 7 years. it's a good company, but not so great benefits. good luck in your job search. make sure you look at all the possibilities before you decide. :nurse:
