10 year Novant nurse

Positive outlook
Approves of CEO

Pros

I started worked at Novant 10 years ago, and I have worked in 3 different units over those 10 years. I have had the chance to try different things and grow with the company. I have been able to move shifts to make my job work for my life, helping to balance my home/kids, work, and starting back to school to get my advance nursing degree. I have worked with great managers who do listen and help work out schedules and workload. I also take part with the Business Resources Groups which has helped to network and expand my reach within the system. Not everyday is perfect, but overall I have loved working here.

Cons

Most bedside nursing units don't offer enough ancillary staff. As a staff nurse you are often answering phones, call bells, handing out meal trays, etc. I have also experienced personal safety issues with patients, but I don't blame the workplace for patient/family violence-that is the nature of the job I suppose (although NOT acceptable).

Being diverse and inclusive is our way of life

Novant Health's values include diversity and inclusion because we know that every person is different and is shaped by their unique life experiences. Novant Health realizes that these differences are a strength and enable us to better understand our team members and our patients.

Novant Health's system wide councils and committees:

  • Health Equity Council
  • Diversity & Inclusion Executive Council
  • Diversity & Inclusion Action Teams
  • Business Resource Groups

A message from our CEO:

“Diversity and Inclusion must be integrated into all of our strategies and community partnerships, just as we do with compassionate care. They must be reflected in the way we create a welcoming culture, and how we leverage the strengths of all team members, hire, contract with vendors and address patients. Diversity and inclusion must be fully embedded in how we do our work every day.”

— Carl S. Armato
Novant Health President and CEO
