Hospital · Enid, Oklahoma
On the floor
Health insurance with minimal or no copays for services through St. Mary’s providers; generous PTO; occasional bonuses for critical staffing needs. On-site meals described as affordable.
Who they are
You would step into a 229-bed acute care hospital on South 5th Street in Enid, part of Universal Health Services. ICU day-shift roles ask for an Oklahoma RN license and BLS up front, then NIH Stroke Scale within three months and ACLS, PALS, and TEAM within six.
The place has a recent Newsweek Best-In-State rank at #3 in Oklahoma (2026), a Leapfrog A for safety (Spring 2025), and Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience recognition across 2021–2024. Colleagues talk about supportive peers and a real community feel; local leaders get called compassionate even when corporate support feels farther away. What people appreciate day to day includes flexible scheduling, generous PTO, health coverage with minimal or no copays when you stay inside St. Mary’s providers, and affordable on-site meals. If you are new to practice, a two-week Nursing Boot Camp runs annually for recent graduates, and some nurses still describe the hospital as a solid place to start and grow. The honest tradeoff is pay. Employees often say base pay lags surrounding facilities and does not match the workload, with occasional staffing bonuses but little in the way of regular raises, plus real pressure to cover shifts when the unit is thin. Enid itself stays a steady northwest Oklahoma city—Vance Air Force Base nearby, housing more affordable than the big metros, and a small-town pace built around work, schools, and local care.
Why nurses stay
About 3.5 overall on Glassdoor from 56 reviews; 56% would recommend; 77% CEO approval; 40% positive business outlook; work/life balance around 3.2. Nurses praise supportive coworkers and community feel while flagging pay that lags nearby facilities, high workloads, shift-coverage pressure, and a gap between local and corporate leadership.
“I came for the sign-on bonus. I stayed because on my hardest night, my whole team stayed with me.”
The reality check
The first year has a shape: exam, license, first job, base year, then the move. Residency windows and commitments carry fine print worth reading before you sign.
