Intense enviroment, but work it.
Swing Shift Coordinator for Anatomic Pathology (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC – March 13, 2013
Pros: always busy
Cons: always busy
We accessioned over 280 cases per day. The work is detailed and needs to be percise. I learned to be patient, more organized and encouraging to my co-workers. The hardest part of the job, was to maintain a cheerful enviroment, when the stress could be high due to the requirements of the position. My co-workers are bright, and willing to work as hard – more... as you are. – less

Sadly Disappointing

Cons: micromanagment, non-collaboative, management by intimidation.
After years in tech in Silicon Valley, it was a shock to be treated as low value asset.

Good Company but career mobility is terrible!
Patient Account Representative (Current Employee), Charlotte, NC – February 13, 2013
Pros: coworkers are nice and company's benefits are good
Cons: no career mobility and micro-management style
CHS is a good place to work and they really care about servicing their patients. However, if you are looking to advance your career it is very hard to accomplish. It seems once management is aware you are looking to grow and advance they start to hinder that process by micro-managing you in all aspects. Its as if they are out to stop you any way they – more... can. They have open positions but they almost always bring in people from other areas of CHS or outside the company instead of promoting within. So if you just want to go to work, do your job and leave then CHS is the place for you. – less

A chance to be part of a great team making a real difference in my own community.The staff here is always willing to jump in and help one another to make the day work and most of all to see that our patients get the care that they deserve.

Hospice of Union County - Slave Work Camp
Healthcare Worker (Current Employee), Monroe, NC – January 11, 2013
Pros: great co-workers, good pay (if you don't look at number of hours), decent benefits
Cons: ungodly number of hours required without pay, unnecessary paperwork
You will be expected to work 50, 60 even 70 hours a week while being paid for 40. What you do is never good enough. Can't speak for the rest of the organization but this place is a horrible place to work. I love the other staff I work with which is what makes this so sad. We are all looking for other, more reasonable employment.

hospice of union county is a wonderful place to work! It is a perfect fit and allows for many opportunities of growth, personally and professionally. I can truly say that this team is top notch and I haven't worked with a better group of people. If you have a heart for hospice, this is an excellent place to plant your work roots.

– February 7, 2013

Ms. Slave Work Camp is right -- she can't speak for the rest of the organization or the people in it. Hospice of Union County is a wonderful place to work! We are a growing agency with the most dedicated team I've ever seen and incredibly supportive and hard-working management. The jobs you see posted aren't because we are replacing people fleeing by the droves. It is because we provide excellent care and we are growing and need more excellent people. There are very few jobs I've had in my life where I actually looked forward to getting up in the morning and going to work; this is one of those rare places. If you have a heart for hospice and enjoy true teamwork, this is the place for you. Come join us!

Right – February 14, 2013

Oh, but people are leaving in droves. Between 10 and 15 nurses have left in a years time, 3 to 4 since the first of this year. Just make sure you really research it and know what you're getting into if you consider working there. Leaving was the best move I could have made. I get to spend time with my family now and I get to go home on time most of the time and not have to work on my own time.

Summary
Advanced Staff Therapist (Current Employee), Charlotte, NC – December 26, 2012
Pros: the raises and profit sharing. annual continuing education symposium
Cons: short breaks, waiting for guest services
Upon arrival at work, my co-worker and I warm up the CT scanners, and the HDR unit if necessary. We then proceed to morning rounds where the MD's go over their day and any concerns or special set ups for simulation. I also sched inpatient scans for the morning if necessary in the hospital Radiology department. There is time blocked in the day for treating – more... inpatients in the hospital. My department is very team work oriented, everyone is like a family member. The hardest part of my the is the many hats I wear, which can become stressful especially if there is limited help. The most enjoyable part is the interaction with the patients. Since they come to the department everyday for several weeks you develope a special bond. – less

Loving Life
Environmental Service Associate (Former Employee), Huntersville, NC – December 4, 2012
Pros: breaks, clean facality, great family
Cons: hours
I loved my job at Huntesville Oaks, I always walked into the building greeted with smiles. I loved to be there for the residents every need. The management was very easy to get along with and I was trained well how to perform my job to my best ability. The hardest part about my job was leaving at the end of the day. The best part, knowing the residents – more... were always looking forward to me walking through the door the next morning. – less

No comparison to a Catholic Hospital I worked at in Ohio. Poor mgnt mainly to blame. Thought I was back in high school.
Occupational Therapy Assistant / bedside (Former Employee), CMC-MAIN Charlotte, NC – November 14, 2012
Pros: job sharing nice concept / benifits at 20 hrs
Cons: focus on quanity not quality
I was initially hired to job share with another therapist and loved my half-day Wed/ full Thurs & Friday schedule. I also liked the option of Medical benefits as a 20 Hr. / wk employee. However that's where the pluses. STOP. All was going fine my first 2 months until the girl I was job-sharing with wanted her 40 hrs back. Suddenly I wasn't working out – more... despite compliments from 3 seperate Doctors who walked in on my self-care treatment of having my patient take a shower and INSISTED that I not only finish my tx but please see them afterwards to advise them on readiness for discharge !! I was providing 8 quality txs per day instead of 14 sit on the edge of the bed for 5 mins or raise the exercise stick up & down 2 X 10....SHAME ON ME !! No wonder I was SO DISSATISFIED with my fathers "THERAPY " during 4 past admissions to CMC-MAIN. – less
