Elliot Hospital Employer Reviews

TEAMWORK IS THE BEST PART THAT I LIKE ABOUT ELLIOT HOSPITAL.GREAT CARING HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS

I really love working with people. Each day is never the same. When your in a profession where you must care about people, something in your heart just clicks.
Although some days/patients can be difficult, I believe you learn more about yourself, and it puts your life into prospective.
When people are sick, they are weak, and sometimes thier patience – more... runs thin. It is then you must pick yourself up be efficient, and make the people feel comfortable.
At the end of the day hearing someone say thank you, or that you made thier experience a little better, that is what makes my job enjoyable, – less

The Elliot as a whole is a great hospital. Certain departments need extreme makeovers in management. The pharmacy dept. has a very high turnover rate and new management is only concerned for themselves.

The Elliot has a great group of caring, hard-working people working for them. However, the management is getting bigger and far more interested in supporting each other as opposed to providing better care for both patients and their own workers.

you are overed worked and need to get job done between doing room before the night is over

When stepping onto the floor the typical CICU RN can expect anything in regards to her assignment. Personally, I've cared for cardiac patients in critical condition awaiting cardiac catheterization, AICD placement, or cardioversions. That usually runs the gambit for my specific specialty, but I also care for suicide attempts, patient's actively detoxing – more... and seizing, suffering heart failure or COPD exacerbation, infections, pneumonia, etc. I found that time management and critical thinking are a nurse's greatest strength. A positive attitude under stressful conditions can also make or break your work day.
Management at the hospital is as effective as possible. The turn over rate on the CICU I've observed is very high. Management has to tackle filling all positions and covering all shifts week to week, just like the challenges many hospitals have to face these days with budget cuts, etc. I find that the team I work with is very supportive and unified when it comes to helping out one another with everyone's workload. There are also numerous resources and educational opportunities to pursue and further your RN learning. – less

I gained a lot of great experience and built a lot of professional relationships with great people at Elliot Hospital.

My experience with Elliot Health Systems was fantastic. From the application and interview process to the actual day to day working environment I had an amazing experience. The staff for each area I encountered was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable in their fields and made an extra effort to express that to each patient that came into the – more... office. – less

The microbiology department at Elliot Hospital has a steady work flow, some days are more hectic than others but overall it is a very healthy work environment. The hardest part of the job is balancing the work flow and multi-tasking. The most enjoyable part is learning and seeing new things. Management is overall efficient, however like any business, – more... staying informed, updated and keeping communication open is a continuous challenge. – less

Cleaned a lot of rooms,and discharges, I was shown how to clean different ways, my bosses were awesome,I loved working with everyone, cleaning the O.R.s was the most difficult,but I liked it because I knew it was getting done right. Was knowing I was doing a good job and helping coworkers.

A typical day would begin on the floors doing morning rounds then we would proceed to the outpatient area and draw patients there as well. We would run hourly reports and do draws in the floors and in the other deots as needed.

Excellent work environment, friendly people, opportunities for advancement, tuition assistance.

i would be really privileged to work among the outstanding medical staff

lot of exercise between ten and twelve miles a day of walking

micro management
management needs improvement in the department i worked

a lot of employee turn over

Way to much Management!! Everytime you turn around there is another layer of Management. They cry they don't have the money to hire.. Well if there wasn't so much Managment we could hire a bunch of empolyees. Then to hear they are letting Doctors go.. Not enough money..Well lets get rid of some Management and keep the Doctors they are the ones that – more... bring the income in. Not the Management! Some employees get worked to death and others, have it very easy. They expand and expand but then there is no money.. NO money for raises.. When I started there were 3% raises now you are lucky to get .5% Things were much better 4/5 years ago. So sad to see something that was so great is going down the drain. – less
