Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare Employer Reviews

Busy days, lot of opportunities to learn, nice co-workers. patient load is 5-6 patients per nurse. New facility and most advanced technology is used

I started out as File Clerk and was Promoted to Analysis Associate, I learned about many different positions within the department, I worked remotely from home for 4 years, I learned to work Independently as well as with a group. I enjoyed my coworkers and suoervisor, Medical Records Department was like a Family environmment, We all helped each other, – more... because when everyone doing a great job, Elmhurst Hospital wins. – less

EMH was once a great place to work. In recent years, however, their dire financial situation, caused by the poor timing of the new hospital and the economic crash, has led to a continual cycle of staff reductions. The quality of patient care has dropped and patient safety is only something that administration talks about. There is no action on safety – more... concerns if such actions would require any money. This has resulted in an atmosphere of fear for line employees, and an attitude of 'there's the door if you don't like it' from management. The situation may improve in time with the impending merger with Edward Hospital, but most believe it will only get worse before it gets better. – less

A typical day consisted of getting reports from the RN, taking vital signs, walking patients, feeding patients, changing beds, bathing patients, speaking with patients and their families, and reporting any findings to the RN

A typical day at work involves me assiting patients as much as possible checking vitals, feeding, showering, assiting with ADLS, getting the patients ready for the nurse/therapist, perineal care, oral and oral care. I learned the key to a happy patient is patience and trust. The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing my patients smile and feel good – more... that they were in my care. A patient's thank you, goes along way and i enjoy being there for those in need. – less

I love the people I've met and worked with here. Learned a lot. However, management seems to really lack here in many departments. No raise this year, no bonus for many years. Poor benefits compared to other hospitals.

Growing opportunities for recent graduates, learned many skills such as using a multimeter, oscilloscope, function generators etc. You also learn a lot of customer sercvice skills, calling and following up with the manufacturers, trouble shooting equipments, changing ventilators batteries and working on open orders.

Very nice place to work. Co-workers very nice and helpful. very exciting place to work for, patients were always so pleasant.

Enjoyed working here. Received lots of experience. Got to float to other areas of the hospital.

Great place and great people to work with! It was a great job to have!

Although i appreciated elmhurst allowing me to be apart of there company. i wanted to be with a company that allowed there employees to advance but advancement opportunites was not extended to everyone.

always treated with fairly and with respect. always felt like part of the team.

Oversee the day to day batch-cycle computer operations data center!!!!

Love my co workers, that is one reason why I am still with EMHC. Supervisors are cold and non communicative, disappear when they're needed, and have favorites which is so obvious. This opinion is by everyone but we keep quiet because we need our jobs.

working in elmhurst hospital gave me alot of experience i got to know patients diets and wat they consisted off. i met knew people everyday when delievery their food tray. We started off in the patient trayline making sure all our patients trays were done correctly by having all their food on their tray. After that was done we would clean up the whole – more... kitchen for the next shift. – less

My co-worker were great! The doctors, overall, were skilled and nice to work with. Our equipment was current and taken care of.

all in all the Hospital is a great work enviroment. The employess ranging from food service to surgery technicians, all keep thier heads in the same place. To provide the best possible service to their patients and vistitors.

i like working there. Good place to work. My coworkers are great

The company does a good job in most aspects, but as with all companies there is room for improvement in some areas.
