What nurses say
Themes from public reviews
Summaries of published reviews, with the original sources.
- Employer-wide review ratings
- Glassdoor displays 3.7/5 across 1,077 reviews, 78% recommendation, 85% CEO approval and 64% positive outlook. Work/life balance, culture and career opportunities each score 3.7; compensation/benefits scores 3.5 and senior management 3.1. These are not nurse-only or campus-specific results.
Sources
- Positive culture but compensation concerns
- A current Indianapolis analyst with more than five years of service liked the culture and work/life balance but believed other organizations offered more competitive compensation. This is a non-nursing account.
Sources
As of 2026-10-07Source: glassdoor.com- Benefits versus practice leadership
- A former Indianapolis clinical supervisor with more than three years of service praised insurance choices and the 401k match but criticized work/life balance and upper leadership in practices. The account does not identify a nursing unit.

More review themes
- Coworker support, turnover and advancement
- A former Indianapolis behavioral health technician valued coworkers and recreation discounts but reported high turnover, ordinary hospital insurance and limited upward mobility. This is another staff group's experience, not a nurse staffing account.
Sources
As of 2026-09-29Source: glassdoor.com- Workload and time-off concerns
- Undated employee snippets on Glassdoor mention excessive workload, longer hours during short staffing, difficulty taking time off and dissatisfaction with management. Roles and campuses are not supplied, and the snippets do not establish mandatory overtime.
Sources
- Nursing-specific aggregate score
- Allnurses displays an average NurseScore of 36/100, labeled needs improvement. The supplied excerpt provides neither methodology nor individual unit accounts, so the score should not be treated as a verified staffing measure.

Call for help the minute your patient looks off to you, not once you are sure. Needing help is not a mark against you. It puts more eyes on the patient, sooner.
Thirty-four years in the ICU and there is still plenty I do not know. The nurse who keeps asking questions is the one giving good care.
