Pros: hour lunches, cafeteria on premises, was able to apply my knowlege of the field, add on to my knowlege with hands on training
Cons: having to work for free on full time hours
I did patient intake (took demographic information, insurance information, chief complaint, verified insurance information, and made payment arrangements) as an intern in the emergency room of the hospital. Management as well as co-workers seemed pleasant. The most enjoyable part of my job was helping the patients get the neccessary paper work to be – more... seen as soon as possible. The hardest part of my job was not being able to help the patient be seen sooner. – less
Histology Supervisor (Former Employee), Columbia, SC – May 18, 2012
Overall Providence was a rewarding facility to work at. Unfortunately management was lacking communication skills and didn't live up to the hospitals core values.
It was a fun place to work because I like helping the patients.
CNA (Former Employee), Mobile, AL – May 16, 2012
I learned a lot from Providence because that was really my first real CNA job I learned a lot from school also but there isn't nothing like having hands on experience on the job. The most enjoyable part about the job is that I was helping the patients they all was like my family. I know if I walked out of that room with a patient smiling or laughed – more... I know that I did my job right. – less
Patient Account Representative (Former Employee), Washington, DC – May 7, 2012
Pros: friendly environment, manager was an excellent leader, helping clients resolve their account issues, work is consistant
Cons: not much room for advancement
I would punch in for work at 7:30 am and sign into my computer terminal. I received my daily insurance payments and adjustments list and began working on it. I adjusted the accounts after the insurances paid. If the patient had a second or third insurance, I pulled the explanation of benefits and requested rebills to the second and third insurances. – more... If the patient does not have a second or third insurance I billed the balances to the patient. Next, I would check for special reports that may have been passed out by my manager. I would check each account on that report and call, submit documentation, and request rebills of the insurance companies as necessary. I would take my lunch break before checking and responding to my mail. Finally, I would work on my monthly patient accounts report, which covered all of the accounts that I am responsible for. During the course of my day, I also answer phones and assist clients who come into the patient accounts office to discuss their accounts. – less

Began my OR career in this institution. Personnel were so gracious in accepting newbies. Learned so much from each of them. They were all quite dedicated to both each other and their patient.

Very family friedly. There mission is all about family. A days work at Providence is helping the vendors by answering questions that they might have dealing with there payments.

staff nurse (Former Employee), mobile,al – February 28, 2012
Pros: float diff
Cons: no teamwork
overall most coworkers were friendly. i rarely found a staff nurse that wasn't caring. management was not helpful. i found that there was a big problem with threats of being terminated and reported to the board all of this done in front of other staff and visitors i do feel that upper management has not been able to place those who are tactful in place
