Patient Service Assistant/Caretech II (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – February 20, 2013
Pros: tuition reimbursement
Cons: healthcare rates
A typical work day consisted of registering patients for clinic visits and ensuring the patients chart had necessary paperwork. I went to nursing school during employment with Wishard Hospital which was helpful because Wishard is a teaching Hospital. Manangement was professional and caring. I got along great with coworkers and enjoyed my work day with – more... them. The hardest part of the job was feeling safe. The clinic was located in the Juvenile Detention Center. My most enjoyable part of the job was the hands on learning experience. – less

Great work environment.
Pharmacy Technician (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – January 3, 2013
Pros: the position was a pro in general.
My typical day at work was very busy but enjoyable because I helped many patients. I learned how to handle many different situations and how to react in a fast paced position. The management are great people that I was happy to work around. My co workers were very inviting, but helpful in every way. The hardest part of the job was handling so many different – more... orders and insurances while helping so many patients. The most enjoyable part of the job, I would say the most enjoyable, was working in such a diverse and flexible environment. – less

Productive, energetic, fast paced but interesting and full of personal satisfaction
Patient Safety Advocate/Interpreter/Translator (Current Employee), Indianapolis, IN – November 12, 2012
Pros: very fast paced but a lot of fun - ability to meet all different kinds of people and cultures
Cons: not enough time for lunch / no breaks
Most enjoyable part of the job is the satisfaction of having been able to help the less fortunate and the gratifying sensation at perceiving the gratefulness and smile in their faces at obtaining the much needed help.
Hardest part - Trying to be at all places at once and the feeling of impotency at not being able to help all.
Management and co-workers – more... are great - a team and one big family working together for the benefit of all
I mostly learned that things are not always what they seem and that there is still much to be done for the underprivileged
A typical day at work is sometimes stressful but always enjoyable and full of satisfaction at the realization of having been able to help – less

A hospital that cares
Eligibility Resource Advocate (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – November 6, 2012
Pros: free lunch for staff, most of management are good and willing to help, pay is not bad
Cons: newer management need to learn there job more and not ride good workers
yes lines may be long at time but its one of the best places to get the best care. here its not about money to pay if your low income or no income you will still be seen and also helped to see if you can get
medicaid, medicare, or wishard advantage medical payment assistance with financial counselors on site to help.

Multi Tasking is a MUST
Spanish Interpreter/Front Office (Current Employee), Indianapolis, IN – October 10, 2012
Pros: parking is free and lots of it
Cons: short breaks and instabitlity in work schdule
This is an extremely fast paced place to work. The people are very nice and competent in what they do. If you like change and are flexible; this is definitely the place for you. The hardest part of the job is not knowing what you'll do from one day to the other. The most enjoyable part of my job is patient care and the opportunity to serve my community. – more... It is a reward to be able to provide quality care even to patients that cannot afford it or have no insurance – less

Productive and rewarding.
Registrar (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – September 28, 2012
Pros: rewarding to know that you saved a life or comforted a sick person.
Cons: death
The interaction with the doctors and nurse, while getting the patient
registered as quick as possible to be serviced. Teamwork with my co-workers. The hardest part is seeing the badly injured and death.
The most enjoyable is when the patient or patient family says thank you.

longtermemployee – September 19, 2012

Management staff hire a lot of their friends and family. Their is a lot of favortisim going on in the work areas. Management really don't care about concerns you have. Most of the staff are not customer friendly.

Judyfromtexas – November 2, 2012

I recently moved to Indianapolis and will potentially apply as a clinician. I don't want to be too personal, but what is the round about pay for this position at wishard?

Very competent and knowledgeable nurses
Patient Care Technician (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – August 17, 2012
Pros: teaching hospital
Cons: terminating great lpn's
Working for the company was a great experience for me. I learned so much while I was there and I loved working with other employees and taking care of the patients. I went to nursing school and was terminated because they were not hiring new LPN's.

A typical day at work was providing exceptional customer service to our clients. I learned to deal with adversity throughout a diverse patient population with compassion and care.

Challenging and good atmosphere to work in
Surgical Technologist (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – May 24, 2012
A typical day included preparing supplies needed for the surgical procedures throughout the day. It also included communicating with surgeons and nursing staff to ensure all extra items were in the room. My co-workers were great to work with and taught me a great deal about the hospital and the surgeons. The most enjoyable part of the day was knowing – more... that I had all supplies needed for a surgical procedure and that the surgeon left the room with a positive attitude. – less

The people you work with are awesome. The management and senior leadership staff are not.
Outpatient Dietitian (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – March 7, 2012
Pros: free lunch, good employees
Cons: management was completely incompetent.
When I first worked for Wishard, I believed in it's mission to serve the underserved. After several things happened, I believe the senior management no longer is working to fulfill the mission statement. The employees and physicians who work for Wishard still hold that mission statement true.

A caring environment with clinicians and doctors that really care.
Client Service Coordinator (Former Employee), Midtown CIU – September 20, 2011
Pros: relaxing environment
Cons: open everyday even on holidays
I liked the position within this company, but other reasons would deter me away from this workplace. Overall the experience itself was well worth it and easy to maintain. Very few things were required for this position and allowed much flexibility for scheduling. Open to the public, as all hospitals are, can become a downfall but the company at times – more... would try to help with off days requested. This particular job required you to have your shift covered if you're trying to take off for a day(s). – less
