HCA HOSPITALS

[sunshineyday]

I worked for an HCA facility for only a couple of months and left bc it wasn't a good fit. Tons of turnover, agency, horrible pt ratios, not enough support... the list goes on.

Anyway, where I live there is a huge network of HCA facilities and I would like to apply to one. However, has anyone had experience with switching HCA facilities? I'm wondering if I should waste my time applying if they see that you've quit at another facility? I do have a friend that works on the unit I'd like to apply for that will put in a good word for me.

Kim,

My cousin was a RN at a free standing surgery clinic there in Fla. She got her hours reduced to the point it was silly to go to work. Kitty is one smart lady, she her license in Texas and moved there. I am not sure just where but she told another cousin she has plenty of work now. I know moving may not be an option for you but many have done it Good luck.
