  • I worked in the ICU department(s) in the hospital. The outside of the hospital is beautiful and well-kept while the inside is grimy and dirty. The ICU unit is 3 divided pods separated by long hallways, the linen, storage, kitchen areas are located along these hallways. Each pod contains 8 beds, in extremely close quarters with hardly any room for a stretcher. The staff are primarily nurses who have accepted a 2 year contract with a hefty sign-on bonus and are very open about leaving as soon as their contract is up. That being said, they were friendly and helpful on night shift. Good camaraderie. Day shift RNs are not motivated. I had to bathe my patients at least 90% of the time. No pride in their practice, very little turning was done and the rooms were not cleaned before the end of their shift. There is a primary physician's group who are older gentlemen. They do not listen to nurses, do not take suggestions, and often order inappropriate meds/treatments. (as in massive IV fluids for CHF patients, neglecting to consult nephrology on renal failures, and refusing norepinephrine in favor of dopamine for hypotensive/tachycardic patients). The hospitalist group is younger and more up-to-date on their practice. There is no protocol for COVID patients except for airborne precautions. PPE is plentiful. At this time the unit is working short-handed on nights and I am often tripled, but with low-acuity patients. There are techs occasionally but the effort to motivate them to perform the basic job duties is exhausting. I received an offer to extend two weeks before the end of my contract. I was told administration does not consider extensions until the last possible moment. I did not extend at this facility. 08/07/2020
  • Housing was approximately 26 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Onapa RV Park. Housing was located in city of Checotah. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 3. I travel in a motorhome, and chose a park in the country although there are parks within Muskogee city limits. Onapa RV park is family-owned and a pleasant place to park however I had spotty cell service (Verizon) and the Wifi is not conducive for anything other than simple apps. Not good for streaming services.
