Leading Academic Medical Center in Chicago
Dietetic Intern (Former Employee), Food and Nutrition Services – May 20, 2013
I worked as a dietetic intern at Rush University Medical Center between September 2011 and March 2013. Rush takes are of their employees and is very sensitive to issues in diversity. As an academic medical center, it is expected that patient care decisions are evidence-based and many units have interdisciplinary teams that round on patients daily.

Medical Assistant Intern/Volunteer (Current Employee), Chicago, IL – May 10, 2013
Coworkers are friendly and great!
Learned so much from this opportunity such as some functions of the EPIC system, how the hematology/oncology department works.
The most enjoyable part of this job is working with the patients and interacting with them.

A fun place to work , with all of the nurses
Environmental Services Specialist (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – May 3, 2013
Pros: meeting new people and some of the patients
Cons: there was only one con.
I worked in the emergency room, came in ready for work , and got the job done.
I learned that you can't please everyone. My co-workers were fantastic. Working in the ER alone could get hectic sometimes, but I handled the job.
The most enjoyable part of the job was just being around the staff.

Productive and enjoyable
Clinica Coordinator (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – April 28, 2013
Fast pace, seeing over 60 patients a day. Registration, cash handling, a lot of walking back and forth. I learned how to manage extensive workload, handle customers in difficult situations. Management was on point, had monthly meetings to discuss and resolve issues. Co-workers were phenomenal, always helping, giving advice, what to do if certian things – more... happen that may have happened to them.
Traveling was the hardest part because we had to fill 1 or 2 luggages with patients records and attempt to carry or drag, plus carry a bookbag with companies laptop.
Most enjoyable were the physicians and patients. The connection between them really showed and made an impact throughout the whole day. – less

Fast Paced Environment
Emergency Department Patient Liaison (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – February 16, 2013
The Patient Liaison department at Rush was managed by a social worker, therefore, the manager understood the patient liaison's duties. It was a great place to work and learn a lot about the psychiatric needs of Emergency Department patients.

Don't count on any kind of stability
Administrative position (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – February 11, 2013
Pros: i did learn a lot, mostly about what not to do when you want to succeed.
Cons: no stability, rush fires people on a regular basis, no sentiment.
I was told about how I would become "part of Rush team" and other kinds of things. I was also given assurance that I would get the full-time benefits "after a year or so." Having waited a year, I then asked my manager about such possibilities. He gave me this big, phony smile and asked me to wait "another six months, and we'll talk." I did do so, and – more... he would tell me the same thing all over again... In the meantime, the vast majority of my coworkers had received the benefits. I should also mention I was called "an exemplary employee" and received a few awards while working there. Finally, I decided quit. And who wouldn't? While the new building for millions of dollars as being built, my manager kept telling me that that although I was basically working 35+ a week on average, "the hospital cannot afford giving you benefits." Really?? – less
