"My co-workers go out of their way to help me provide quality care..."
“There are many challenges working on a med-surg unit, so as a new grad, it’s important to have people you work with be by your side and support you with a positive attitude. At Southern California Hospital at Culver City, my co-workers go out of their way to help me provide quality patient care—from learning to help a patient out of bed and giving medications, to using Accu-Check and disconnecting an IV. This is a great place to learn as well as a great place for career growth.”

"You never have to rely on yourself... everyone helps."
“As a previous licensed vocational nurse, I was looking for an acute care experience. I’ve been at Southern California Hospital at Hollywood for five years now. What a great experience! I’ve seen many changes in patient care and quality improvements. Plus, the hospital has added new and updated equipment, such as bed alarms to prevent falls and vital sign monitoring technology to assist the nursing assistants. You never have to rely on yourself here… everyone helps. Our Rapid Response Team brings staff from other departments for challenging situations, including radiology and respiratory, so you have extensive back-up support.”

"I received training and amazing staff support."
“I came to Southern California Hospital at Hollywood to have an opportunity for growth and to get an experience in acute care. The Hollywood hospital staff helped to train me, and encourage me to have educational goals. Initially, I was a bit nervous, but with the training and amazing staff support, I was not overwhelmed. I once had a patient whose mental status was declining and had erratic blood pressure. I called the charge nurse who agreed with my assessment. We immediately called the Rapid Response Team and the patient was transferred to a higher level of care. We are a community hospital, which allows us to provide personalized patient care with heart and spirit.”
– Crystal, LVN, Medical-Surgical, Hollywood
"I always feel like my workload is light because everyone pitches in."
“In 2018, I went from being an LVN to an RN and love the variety of floating to different units. I always feel like my workload is light because everyone pitches in to help each other. I also enjoy the cultural diversity of our patients as this requires a different approach and communication skills with different patients.”

"I've been provided a great hospital experience and education."
“As a new graduate nurse, I was fortunate Southern California Hospital at Hollywood was able to provide me with great hospital experience and education, including becoming an expert at giving IVs. Nursing school is great, but being in a hospital is reality. At Southern California Hospital at Hollywood, they ensure we understand that patient safety is important. We learn how to keep our patient safe and prioritize the many things we have to accomplish for our patients.”
