The management is mostly interrelated and has had problems keeping staff,etc,A typical day at work for me started at 5am when I checked casecarts and supplies for that days surgerys.I then ordered/setup supplies cases for the next days problem solved with surgeons and nurses . I also did special projects made recommendations on ordering etc.I also worked – more... educating my staff. I typically didnt leave till 4-5pm ( I was salaried) – less

I spend a good portion of my day maintaining the purchasing operations and inventories of the entire Food and Nutrition Department. I also assist in the daily supervision of food production and coordinate and delagate duties as necessary for all of the catering operations.

If you are having a bad day with your patients..your co workers will make it better.

Cash people out for their food, learned how to make starbucks delicous coffee, management could be better, lot of gossip, hardest part of job is to deal with others attitudes, best part is helping the customers.

BJC is always a great company to work for with losts of incentives

I had such a good time on my externship at Missouri Baptist. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. I was able to learn everything I needed to learn about the position.

coordinate staff training,patient care, working with nurses and making patients smile, working as a team, poor manangment in lab

Management will micromanage you out the door. Very punitive environment with no room for staff oppinions. Abusive or rude families are allowed to treat staff poorly, leadership doesnt support the staff in a culture of compassion or respect. Backstabbing is abundent, & professional sabotage is tolerated. Policies related to employment not readily available, – more... floor policies change consistently yet documents related to this are never available to review. Worst computerized charting in the metro area. Minimal to no raises past 3 years, mandatory cancelations due to decreasing census, this has depleted staff vacation time available, yet despite this supposed financial crunch middle management continues to work a full time schedule. – less

I volunteered at Missouri Baptist for a summer in the post operation room. I was given this opportunity by my mother who at the time was a registered nurse there. Everyone that worked there was very nice and it gave me a good look into one aspect of the hospital. My typical day involved setting up the post op rooms, transporting patients, and making – more... sure patients got to their rides safe. I worked full time hours as a volunteer. Since then I have been back there to observer surgeries and talk to doctors as well as observe other surgeries in other medical facilities. – less

Got to meet many interesting people. The work was easy. Stressfull though at times. Most days we were short employees so that meant double the work load. Learned about diets and how to fill the orders.

I'm a Team Player seeking a stable Home Team. I would like a company that values the employees and promotes from within. My work environment has always been of a fast pace, multitasking nature. I tend to search for and learn ways to make my productivity faster and easier while not compromising the quality of my work. I have managed information and employees.
My – more... co-workers and myself included perform our duties as if we own the company. We offer our best qualities within the realm of company policy and procedures. However, that brings me to the hardest part of the job. Policy and procedures are important and must be upheld, but this sometimes conflicts with the request of Patients and Clients. Example: Claim denial due to untimely filing. We gladly will process claims that are submitted within a required timeline by the Patient or Client. When those timelines aren't complied with by the Customer the outcome is usually not a happy one for the Patient or Client. The most enjoyable aspect of what I do is when those policy and procedures bring about an exceptable outcome for the Patient or Client. When the company succeeds we all succeed while promoting job security and company stability. – less

As a whole, this company did well at constantly promoting and demonstrating the mission and vision of the Hospital, which at the time were: Compassion, Integrity, Tolerance, Excellence, and Respect. The conpany also offered a lot of opportunities for advancement. Management payed a lot of attention to growth and progress demonstrated by their employees. – more... That's how I advanced and was recognized as a good fit for the department mentor, which was an extension to the Admitting Associate title that I had.

The department also had a highly skilled and personable Educator who took her time in training each new employee until they felt completely comfortable being on their own.

The hardest part of the job was getting used to irrate patients. However, that was something that was effectively overcome by putting myself in the other person's shoes. The best part of the job was team work and comradery amongst the employees in the department. – less

I had an overall a good experience. Management is influenced by politics and that gets in the way of completing your job effectively.

I work night shift so my work day is not a typical one. The staff members are nice and helpful. Every nursing floor has their own identity and culture, which can be a gift and a curse. The executive team is very forward thinking. Missouri Baptist Medical Center has been a great addition to the BJC healthcare system.

fast paced work environment, every day i learn something new.

Repair, installed and preventive maintenance of patient and building equipment.

A typical day at work went: Report from off going nurse, check previous shift vitals and lab work, head-to-toe assessment, medication pass, I&O charting, check vital signs, Chart assessments, check charts, and fill out care plans. Frequent admissions sprinkled in as well as discharges. I learned that I enjoy working in a hospital setting, I also attended – more... classes on Evidence Based Practice and my project was accepted to go to a state-wide conference. My co-workers were an amazing bunch of people, I could always depend on them to assist me if I were in a bind, and I enjoyed helping them if they needed anything. The hardest part of any hospital job, of course, is the admission process. Though it was always very rewarding to see someone you admitted feel better and be able to go home! – less

The people/colleagues at MBMC are the best inthe healthcare industry!

vitals, glucose checks, working with the nurses and doctors, by assisting with getting supplies or helping packing wounds. Seeing patients well enough to return home was so rewarding. Hardest part is saying good-bye. Co-workers were so family oriented and friendly.
