More about HCA Florida Panama City Emergency

The unit sees roughly 25,000 visits a year and stays fully integrated with HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital, the 282-bed acute-care parent that has served this community for more than forty years. Your shift is the work of triage, assessment, and treatment across all ages—adults and kids—while you juggle multiple cases and coordinate with physicians and the departments behind you. The parent side carries Primary Stroke Center designation, a Leapfrog Group A rating for four straight years, and national accreditations in chest pain, stroke, and related lines, so the backup when someone needs more than the free-standing walls can hold is real. Scheduling is described as flexible, with the honest catch that mixed shifts and some nights are part of covering the FSER. Benefits listed for the Gulf Coast family include health insurance, 401(k) matching, PTO, tuition reimbursement, pet insurance, and an employee stock purchase plan. Pay figures are not clear in what we have so far, so you will want to ask directly when you talk with them.
