St. Joseph Hospital Employer Reviews

St. Joseph gave me a place to work that was comforting. They still to this day have high standards in values and work conditions.

Provided nursing to patients and education to co-workers on this active unit (18 beds if I recall correctly). We worked so well together, and even enjoyed off duty times together. This was a "self -governance" hospital. My role was in keeping us up to date in what we needed to know. I embraced that role. I worked the night shift and will never forget – more... the sunrise coming in the windows each morning. – less

I love the mission of the organization. They do have a drive to put the patient first. That's something I can get behind.

Busy billing office, with some room for learning experiences if you initiate enough you can learn new things. Management is difficult in this business office, too much pressure and not enough time in the day. Management is a number one complaint, but we have great benefits.

St Joseph is a great place to work. Never any issues that was not addressed. There was nothing hard about working there. The co-workers were good people to work with,.

This place was not my favorite, orthopaedic office and I didnt have the opportunity to utilize my knowledge from college.

its a nice environment to work in. work by yourself most of the time. there is much room to move up. people move out instead of moving up.

This was a former employer gained after military service. Assisted with general patient care.

Caring for patients of the long term care was an honor and it taught me a lot about patience , guidance and appreciation. They have an amazing team of employees and management.

Department Nursing Staff and MDs provided a great working environment

I really loved my job. I woked with alot of great people . we worked as a team . I learned alot of new skills . i would help set up an OR with diffrent equipment for the case ,help the nurse and doctor with the patients . I would run for blood if they needed it.

It has been a great experience working at St. Joseph. I started out as an intern and they gave me the opportunity to be a part of an inevitable change that was taught to us in school.

I have learned how to interact with mental health patients with a variety of mental health issues, as well as how to react in a variety of situations when patients' behavior is escalating.

A hospital setting is primarily just working with the patients. There is not alot of teamwork or interaction with co-workers. However, working in a hospital has been beneficial in working with all kinds of patients. Very sick and dying patients, young, old and learning new skills and techniques all the time. It is a great company who reminds us that – more... we are doing a service for our patients. – less

This place is the most interesting job to work for. Cleaning and sterilizing medical tools after surgery. learning about the human body was very interesting. Observing actual surgeries is very interesting and humbling.

I have been orienting with a very nice, knowledgeable nurse.

Afterwards I'll chart, and then administer any medications, check any critical lab values, check the doctors orders, and attend to – more... the patient as required.

The demands in the operating room were sometimes stressful. But, with positive attitude and good team work. Made it enjoyable to know that we made a difference in the – more... care for our patients.
