Procedures not always followed and often understaffed which makes some shifts a lot more difficult and stressful than they should be. Never see administration. Seems like nursing staff does not exist to them."

"Be more attentive to staff. Work on the little things that mean a lot. For example, cafeteria is only open Monday through Friday and only for breakfast and lunch. So those working evenings/ nights and/or weekends have no opportunity to get food since employees are not allowed to leave campus. There is only one toilet forthe ED staff, for both men and women (unisex). It is located right in the break room that only has three chairs in it. I would improve the conditions for staff. A little improvement would go a long way. The physicians have a lovely large comfortable lounge. The nurses, techs and secretaries have close to nothing"
