Essentia Health reviews

The company is awful. The College of Saint Scholastica in Duluth funnels the student nurses into this corporate hospital and its disturbing. They do not value the nurses or healthcare staff. They would rather pay travelers more money than to pay their actual staff the compensation they deserve. Staff is overworked, short staffed, and has a low compensation compared to other company's. While I worked here I had zero work life balance and was extremely depressed because of that. When I worked there we had nurses quitting and leaving on the weekly. I would walk into the medication room to see my fellow nurses crying or having panic attacks from how stressed they were from being overworked. This company traumatized me and made me want to step away from bedside nursing all together because of how awful my experience as a worker was. Leaving work and feeling like I was never enough or could never do enough to keep up with the high demands of responsibilities.

Leadership culture. Nursing culture. Duluth culture.
