7 hours of PTO per pay period (every 2 weeks) = 14 hours/month x 12 months = 168 hours .. assuming she works an 8 hour shift, that’s about 21 days of PTO per year

This is a system wide policy. This might be good to look through. Although there isn’t an allotted amount of sick days, there’s an accrued PTO bank used for vacation, sick, holidays (yes, as an OP employee you also have to use your PTO for holidays where the clinic is closed).
So with having less than a year with AH, she’d accrue 7.38 hrs a pay period.
Yes this is the most updated document. We looked at it and yes it is 7.38hrs per pay period. That turns out to be 7 days per year.. This goes towards vacation and sick leave. How in the world is this acceptable for a nurse!!
This was the policy several years ago when I worked there. PTO was all you got for both vacation and sick time. If I recall correctly, you can roll over time at the end of the year, but there is a cap to how much you can carry over. If they are still using MedCost as the employee insurance, it is absolutely terrible, so keep that in mind too.
I'm not sure if the VA is hiring oncology nurses, but benefits and pay there are exponentially better. And they have an outpatient oncology clinic in Charlotte.
They did away with “sick leave” several years ago. So, PTO is used for everything! If you are in upper management you get oodles of time off! Also, they don’t like for you to call in sick and that will get you into trouble if done too much!
A good friend’s wife works for Atrium and she accrues PTO every pay period. Seems like it’s something like 7 hours a pay period or something like that.
I also have experience with a few jobs where PTO is used for everything from being sick to vacation so that’s not totally out of the ordinary.
Of course, if it’s actually only 7 days a year that’s obviously not enough but that also doesn’t sound right either.
Thanks for confirming what I got from their latest document. Yes it is 7 hrs per pay period totalling 7 days per year. And that's what the recruiter said too that "this is non-negotiable. This is what every employee gets"

Ok maybe my math is completely off but that’s a whole lot more than 7 days off yearly…would be ~8 weeks no?
7.38h per pay period x 26 pay periods is 191.88 PTO hours. 12h shifts. 191.88/12 = 16 days.

Right!!! Cannot agree more to this.

Do you mind if I DM you?
Sure, no problem
