More about Mountain Youth Academy
The facility is a UHS company; nursing staff benefits on the posting include free meals, tuition reimbursement, and a SoFi student loan refinancing program. New grads are welcome to apply, with career development framed across UHS and its 300+ subsidiaries. Tennessee has no state income tax and is a compact-license state, which matters if you are moving or holding a multi-state license. The employer describes a safe, supportive environment that puts nursing and patient care first. On the floor, some residential staff have called the work challenging but rewarding and the management highly supportive; review aggregates also mention fair pay, personal appreciation, and room to learn. The same review picture is uneven. Indeed sits at about 2.9/5 from 69 reviews, with pay and benefits the stronger subscore and work-life balance the weaker one. Flexibility and overall satisfaction show up as gaps, and at least one former floor voice has said management feels disconnected from daily work. That tension is part of what you would be walking into—not a polished brochure, just the setting as it reads today.
