Great place to start as a new nurse though they do not care about overworking their employees. Staff treated without representation. Management rules with iron fist from the managers to execs.

Great Job Pays Well Good Benefits upper management needs works, Most its a fun place to work , steady work flow, needs more training in place for new employees
I had a very pleasant work experience at North Florida, I learned a lot about how an endoscopy nursing unit works. The doctors were willing to teach during the procedures, as well as the nurses.
Pros
You learn something new everyday
Cons
You have only 30 minute breaks regardless of how long your shift is
MEDICAL OFFICE ASSISTANT PRN (Current Employee) – Gainesville, FL – January 31, 2019
I am just beginning my career with North Florida Regional and so far I enjoy it. The culture there is fun and fast paced. Policy and procedures are laid out clearly, along with employer expectations.
Facility is clean and I enjoy working with the staff. Patients are awesome. Grateful that the Director and the Assistant director gave me the opportunity as a new nurse to work on their unit. Also, to be a part of their StaRN program.

Always have a positive attitude because you never know who is watching. I love the company, the managers are fair and loyal. The company make you feel at home at all times. It is a pleasure working for the company.
Registrar (Current Employee) – Gainesville, FL – January 21, 2019
We’re responsible for timely and accurate patient registration. Interviews patients for all pertinent account information and verifies insurance coverage.
I learned so much in my time at NFRMC. My fellow nurses are now considered family. We were always laughing and make the most of difficult situations. They always had my back, from PT & OT to housekeeping- we all had each other’s backs.
I loved working for this hospital! I feel I touched many lives in my employment there! Management wasn't the best in my department, but I did love my position.
Everyone from the CEO to housekeeping has the same friendly and upbeat personality. Everyone speaks to everyone, it was truly one of the happiest places I have worked.

Great place to work. Employees and management were very professional and easy to work with. Saw mostly senior citizens and the doctor was very good with his patients.
Patient Care Technician/ Unit Clerk (Current Employee) – Gainesville, FL – November 7, 2018
I do not care to answer these questions about my current workplace 8 hours days Learned how to do many things Management is alright busy place teamwork
I have been working here for almost two years, I don't have any work issues. The health insurance prices could be a little better, but I love the ESPP program!!!
After working PRN for 5 plus years-the Hospital refused to offer or provide health insurance benefits. This is ridiculous. A hospital not offering health insurance benefits. Our specific department would not offer even PT positions-because they would have to then provide health insurance. It is a huge slap in the face and THE ONLY reason I quit working for NFRMC
Housekeeper (Former Employee) – Gainesville, FL – October 17, 2018
Cleaned patient rooms and emergency department, with frequent patient contact. Able to help co-workers when own work had been completed. Spent most of time working independently.
Management needs to be look at. There is alot going on with that. A lot of preference with co workers. Culture diferences and not least, lack of communication.
the patient to nurse and nursing staff ratio is insane you will literally be taken care of 40 to 50 patients because they are so understaffed. Nursing assistants and nurses usually have about seven to eight patients. I worked a med-surg floor and I will never work at this hospital again the managers don't care about you they sit in their office all day and then they come and do their leadership rounds where the patient gets to complain that they have their bet they haven't had their bed bath while the problem is is you're dealing with 30 other patients and it's impossible to get to them.
Pros
Plenty of overtime
Cons
You barely get a break and they write you up for silly things
Claim to be patient oriented. Only care about their profit. They will lie on you so quickly and will push false accusations trying to fire you. Unless you are a doctor, director, CEO, or anyone higher up they don't care about your well-being. Avoid NFRMC as an employee or patient.
Research Intern (Former Employee) – Gainesville, FL – September 18, 2018
Beware: managers have been instructed to refrain from writing any letters of recommendation. Additionally, they are not allowed to reference you by phone.
A typical day at work is trying to find out what area you are working , most of the time your manager is being lazy , you people that wants to be your manager ,
> Cuthroat! This hospital is definitely for profit. The administration cares more about the outside, and Christmas lighting, than patient care and staff. They have just gotten rid of positions that have proved not to be "profitable", by their standards. Full time, devoted RN's have lost their jobs, security, and benefits, with a two notice, many older nurses, having difficulty finding new positions. Awful hospital, awful place to work
Pros
Meals
Cons
Poor job security, lack of compassion from administration
