Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center Employer Reviews

Daily interaction with multi-disciplinary team responsible for overall departmental functions and productivity.

A typical day involves review of charts, Ethics Committee consultations, visiting patients or family member and talking on phone with them. Logging complaints and sending out letters. Trouble shooting and resolving complaints with patients and sometimes staff.

I learnt that every concern is important to that person making the complaint.

Co-workers – more... are easily to get along with is an integral part of getting issues resolved.

The hardest part of job is writing a closing letter to complainant.

The most enjoyable part is being able to resolve an issue and seeing the complainant turn from being angry to being satisfied. – less

I enjoyed working at Kingsbrook, my co-workers were warm and friendly, almost like family. Management was competent and fair. Hardest part of the job was the crazy hours I had but I wouldnt trade it for anything, because while it was hectic it was a learning experience as I got to learn different areas of the institution

My job is fun at times like every other job nobody likes when it get busy. My job consists of me doing numerous of tasks. Taking patients to there scheduled destination , putting the deceased in the morgue , handling specimen carefully taking them to the lab etc.

Fast paced, at times hectic, typical work day is from 8 to 4 with 1 hour of lunch.

Typical day is reviewing the credit hold list and critical care patient vendors before issuing payments. Cash management, cashflow is extremely tight creating large volume of vendor calls. Management is diligent and hard working, finding ways of keeping the hospital operating at peak. The hardest part is trying to keep all of the vendors happy while – more... not having the cashflow to pay everyone. – less

take packages and have them processed by ups,, fedex, dhl, or any of the shipping services and delivery them as well as the mail to various departments throughout the hospital. What i learned was to be patient to work timely manner . Since it was a volunteer position I only dealt with 2 people besides the volunteer coordinator. the really wasn't anything – more... really difficult about the position and i enjoyed my time there. – less

A typical day at work meant working together as a team to care for our patients and we were a family that cared for each other. I learnt so many new things each and every day, management recognized our hard work and did not neglect to show their appreciation. Despite little conflicts, at the end of the day we all cared about each other and rallied together – more... to accomplish the tasks at hand. The hardest part of the job was managing over crowding in the unit and managing angry patients and their family members. The most enjoyable part of the job was patients' satisfaction, to see very sick patients leave smiling and happy. – less

managers,supervisors and coworkers are all excellent to work
with,it is like family

i was only an intern for two months during the summer but i enjoyed my time there. the people were friendly and any problems i had my supervisor would make accomodations.

A typical day at work entails juggling multiple tasks at once. Answering numerous phone calls and providing assistance to managers, employees and union agents. Following up on issues that are time sensitive. Dealing with cultural barriers in a very diverse environment. And meeting with employees at random as I have an open door policy.

Great work environment good staff would love to retire at this location

I was in charge of half of the hospital, in all areas of IT from helpdesk to phone support. The staff was relatively small we had two system administrators, who also dealt with teach support in there respective areas. The team was really family oriented. Everyone work as a unit and help each other out in every way possible

Any health care facility will be a tough place to work in but it can be done successfully with a great team. My position as a Dietetic Technician requires communication not only with patients/residents but with my co-workers as well. I assist Registered Dietitians with food preferences, meal ticket adjustments, and follow up with nutritional/supplemental – more... needs for the patients/residents on each unit. I also communicate and inform Dietary Supervisor and Dietary Aids with any changes or requests based upon an individuals diet. I try my best to work with everyone during meal service in order for the proper diet to be given in a timely matter. Management are very clear in explaining responsibilities and are also able to fulfill employees requests and needs. The hardest part of my job would be trying to convince a patient to changing their eating habits on a daily basis. The best part of my job would be that some patients will try to compromise and follow their modified diet plan. – less
