Brookhaven Memorial Hospital

Hi all,

I've been looking into this hospital since I met with one of their nurse recruiters at a career fair a little while back, they seem like a decent hospital and was just curious if anyone had any first hand experience with them.

Thanks in advance!

Hi SapphireStarr,

I can only provide basic information about Brookhaven Hospital as I don't work there. I am presently a nursing student and I am also doing my clinicals there. As an outsider looking in, here's what I can tell you. In past years, Brookhaven Hospital had a less than glowing reputation. Recently however they have worked to improve their reputation and I believe that it has improved.

While doing our clinicals there, I can say that the nurses and CNA's have been extremely helpful and welcoming to our class. They are always willing to take time to assist us when requested. I can also say that my mother was a patiuent there several years ago and was provided great care by the staff.

I know that doesn't really give you great insight into what it's like to work there, and how well the nurses are paid or treated, but I hope that it helps. Don't believe rumors about that facility. Take the time to speak with people that actually work there. Good luck.

Thanks. Can you tell me if their charting is done on computers or paper?

Everything is done on computer.
