Nice people and interesting patient population
Patient Care Coordinator (Current Employee), Baltimore, MD – May 12, 2013
Typical day consists of gathering information for morning treatment team rounds. This information is then presented and discussed to an interdisciplinary treatment team. Co-workers are great, work as a team. Enjoy working one on one with the attending physicians.

Hardest part can be the mental stress at times when acuity and census is high. Enjoy working – more... with the patients and seeing how their mood and health improves with the program. – less

Dedicated, compassionate staff that serve as advocates and provide excellence in mental health care.
Unit Manager (Current Employee), Towson, Maryland – March 23, 2013
Pros: helping patients and/or families with mental health needs.
Cons: there are so many that need help, there is still a stigma associated with mental health in our society.
Sheppard Pratt is a challenging yet rewarding place to work. Challenging in that ever day is different and one has to be flexible in order to advocate for and meet the needs of our patients. Rewarding in that the staff is loyal to the team and dedicated to providing the very best care to our patients. This offers a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Principal / Education Director (Current Employee), Special Education School Western Maryland Region – March 21, 2013
Pros: professonal development and support opportunities

Adequate compensation and and benefits and fine – more... professional support has made my fourteen years working here quite comfortable. – less

Great place to work!
Human Resources (Current Employee), Towson, MD – March 12, 2013
Pros: great co-workers, convenient location, employees are appreciated and valued
I am very happy with my position at Sheppard Pratt and I hope I am here for many years to come. I did an internship with SPHS in college and learned a lot. A few years later (after working for other companies) I decided to apply for a full time position. This is a fair and professional organization that treats employees with respect. There is a good – more... work/life balance with a "family first" mentality that is very difficult to find elsewhere. – less

Surrounded by caring and ethical staff - focused on the patients/students
HR (Current Employee), Towson, MD – March 8, 2013
Pros: being surrounded by bright staff invested in our mission.
Cons: healthcare isn't the place to make the big bucks.
I feel so fortunate to work at Sheppard, and I'm proud of our well-earned long-standing reputation for quality inpatient psych services, as well as our growing reputation with residential treatment, special ed schools and autism education programs. I'm always impressed at how caring and invested our staff are. And I feel good about working for an organization – more... that is making a difference in the lives of others.

While many of my friends complain about their jobs and dwell on getting through the workweek or counting down to retirement, I enjoy coming to work! – less
