I love my department
medical (Current Employee), Camden N.J. – May 24, 2013
Pros: other than my department nothing
Cons: lowest paying hospital, no room for advancement no matter how hard you work, its not what you know its who you know, a lot of favoritism and racistism going on, would not make this a place to stay for longevity, does not believe in promotion within in work place its just sad
Giving patients the best care possible on a daily basis. I love my department. Everyone works very hard to make sure our patients and family are happy and satisfied with the care they receive. My co worker are very dedicated to their jobs. Just about everyone in my department are team players.

An OK place to work, but not a place I want to spend my life at
Supply Technician (Current Employee), Paducah, KY – May 22, 2013
Pros: nice people to work with
Cons: terrible people to work for
Management is concerned with one thing: Profit. The people that you work with from day to day can be a handful because of the high stress environment, but for the most part everyone understands each others situations and will try their best to be as pleasant about different problems and occurances that may happen.

Working at Lourdes is very rewarding.
Analyst (Current Employee), Camden, New Jersey – May 17, 2013
Working at Lourdes is very rewarding. You see what you do here shine through the people you touch daily. Comminity service and volunteering play a big part of what our misssion and values represent. Everyday I am here willing and able to serve my community, staff, patients and their family members and even if I only help one person a day solve an issue/concern – more... that makes my job even more satisfing. – less

A productive place based on catholic values, and the mission.
Nutritional Assistant (Current Employee), Lafayette, LA – May 16, 2013
Pros: they worked around my schedule.
Cons: didn't have an benefits since i was in school, no free lunches.
It was an overall great place to work at. I was in school, so most of the time I didnt see many of my coworkers. The most enjoyable moment was when I got to see most of my coworkers, and hang with them and working together as a team. The hardest thing for me is being in school and not being able to make a whole bunch of hours.

Good atmosphere but extreme disconnect from corporate
Financial Planning Analyst (Current Employee), Paducah, KY – April 26, 2013
Pros: good compensation, great benefits, flexibility, opportunity to learn, good management, wonderful co-workers
Cons: stressful at times (what job isnt), disconnect between corporate and it's entities.
I could not have been more pleased with the management and my co-workers during my time with Lourdes. I was able to learn an extensize amount and the experience I gained was incredibly valuable. Yet, from day one it was obvious that there was a extremely large disconnect between the operations at Lourdes, and the views and ideals that corporate possessed – more... (they are centered out of southern Ohio). Often times, corporate's understanding of the work it would take to fill their requests they made were quite unreasonable. Also, and most importantly, CHP is renowned for being "behind the times" within the healthcare industry and are also known for hiring and then laying off employees. – less

going downhill
Staff clinical pharmacist (Current Employee), NY – April 16, 2013
Pros: 7on 7off 3rd shift- off every other week
Cons: very long commute, management never worked in hospital pcy, all decisions made by "commitee" with no input or control from staff, no follow up and adjustment of new implementeations.very short vacation opportunities, all accrued time is forfeited at end of year
There was no 3rd shift at this facility and none of the staff were interested.I stepped up and was the first and only Rph to take on the challenge.Many wonderful possibilities were discussed at interview and how much my experience would contribute to the struggling department.
This was a gross mis-representation on "management's" part since none came – more... even close to fruition.
Manager has no hospital experience much less his own pharmacy department.On several ocassions when called re: a crisis at hand the response was "deal with it"..hardly managerial or professional yet depicts the overall attitude.
I see no positive future for myself in this depatment given the overall staffing,computer ,and numerous other problems. – less

Unit Secretary
Unit Secretary (Former Employee), Willingboro, NJ – April 15, 2013
Transcribe doctors orders in the order received. the work day would start at 11pm and end at 7am. the employees were a family and treated the patients as such. Management seemed to be out of touch with the requirements of overnight responsibilities.

A hot mess!
Nursing (Former Employee), Paducah, KY – March 14, 2013
Pros: good pay & perks ...about it
Cons: unprofessional, unethical, poor administration, everything revolves around doctors instead of patients & staff
On the surface or through talk this hospital seems a wonderful place to work...until you are there and peel the layers to reveal poor administration and negative work environment which overflows with passive aggressive behavior, even leadership. Total disappointment as mission grabs you but unfortunately they do not live up to 'walk the talk'. Nursing – more... in particular lacks professionalism and respect from doctors which is unacceptable for our discipline. Staffing is ridiculous with expectations unreasonable. Patient care lacks and safety is a concern. A positive is they pay well and do offer perks to employees throughout the year. No amount of pay equals integrity... left with my integrity solid and I can sleep well at night.
For leaders, beware...ask to SEE retention rates of leadership over the past several years...all you will need to see :)
Numbers don't deceive, but the administration here will. – less

Great place to work
Prep Cook/ Porter/ Food Service Aide (Former Employee), Lafayette, LA – February 28, 2013
Pros: bonuses for christmas, take place in events and win prizes, free food after events were over.
Cons: benefits were ok, working short handed all the time
I was a prep cook, so I would prep all food and breakfast 1 day in advance, all food for entire staff, cafferteria, patients etc. I learned that it was never to late to better myself by going to college and making something out of yourself. Managers were awesome never had any problems with them. Co-workers are everyday people, some of them were cool, – more... some of them weren't, but I never had any issues with none of my co-workers. The hardest part of the job was doing prep cook, and working on the line, and helping the aides bring food carts up to floors at the same time. I enjoyed the people I worked with, they always were smiling, and that kept me in a good mood, and I think that was very important working with a responsible team. – less
