Hospital Rankings
According To Traveling Nurses

|
It was discussed to make a
list of hospitals that frequently hire traveling nurses and rate them;
therefore, I have created this rating system for hospitals. This
will be the accumulation of data from all forms filled out. The
purpose of this list is for the travel nurse a better look at hospitals
around the country. This is an accumulation of all nursing data
acquired through our survey.
Here is the list of
questions asked: (1) Hospital and unit size as stated. (2)
Hospital was clean and well maintained. (3) Physicians treat the
nurses with respect and are available when necessary. (4) Continuing
educational opportunities were made available. (5) Ancillary
departments were helpful. (6) Dietary department was flexible in
providing for special request. (7) Medications were available within a
reasonable amount of time. (8) Equipment was available within a
reasonable amount of time. (9) Nursing manager was good resource.
(10) Other professional nurses were friendly and helpful. (11) Nursing
assistants were readily available and adequately helped. (12)
Effective communication between caregivers. (13) Patients were
properly identified and the identifications were used. (14) Sterile
procedure was effectively used as needed. (15) Isolation precautions
were used effectively. (16) Nurses were floated only to areas of
competency. (17) Facility perceived to be "traveler friendly."
(18) Safe nurse to patient ratios are observed (close to that of
California). (19) Concern for patient safety is top priority.
(20) I never felt like my license was in danger.
Thanks again to all
the traveling nurse who took time out of their busy schedule to help me with
this chart by emailing me about your experiences! If you have NOT
filled out the questionnaire, please go
