I'm leaving HPHA for another opportunity soon, but it's been an amazing place to work.  Healthcare is undeniably stressful, especially with a global pandemic thrown into the mix.   The senior leadership is the best I've ever worked for. They are compassionate, emphatic and work hard to make HPHA a great employer.  You'll read some comments about how miserable it is, but to these negative people I say, suck it up and realize how good you have it.  ALL hospitals are going through strained times but HPHA does its absolute best to make it a positive culture.   

This is a VERY toxic work environment.  Some staff enjoy making up rumors about one another. The OR EVS staff are the absolute worst in the building. May be due to narrow mindset.  Work life balance is next to non. When you are part time, you could be scheduled days, afternoon and midnight all in the same week.  It can be bad for the physical health. Emails go out about how to be a decent human because some forget that when they walk through the door. The level of professionalism is next to non. 

I can't complain about the work, it's not difficult.  You're paid too much for it. It is usually pretty busy in the mornings and afternoons, but you will have a lot of down time in the evenings. Only reason I'm not rating this higher is because of their policies. Rules and restrictions are pretty strict and many are questionable, and quite unfair and discriminatory both towards staff and visitors if they haven't taken a certain vaccine.

Excellent company to work for. Dedicated staff and management. 
As an RPN we used all our skills. We had a lot of responsibility in
our job. The overall care was excellent at Stratford.
We had to learn to be well organized in our job.
The hardest part of the job was working short staffed. Everyone
had to take extra patients on. So it was difficult to adjust sometimes.
The most enjoyable part of the job was seeing patients get better after having surgery, and going home.

I enjoy my job and the people I work with.  My supervisor is excellent.  I am looking for advancement and none is provided at this time.

The most rewarding part and most difficult part of my job is people.  Meaning, we as Environmental Service support personnel basically are customer service representatives to staff, patients, families and public.

My skills (education and experience) were under utilized and I therefore felt no sense of pride or accomplishment in my work. When assaulted by patients, myself and coworkers were denied reviews of the situation as to how things could have been managed differently. Instead, we were offered platitudes such as “I know you did your best”, or “you know s/he’s not well”. These were not helpful in any way. Overall, not a great work environment because of poor management.

In the department I was in the senior employees  did not follow standard operating procedures.   You were expected to know how each person wanted the job done (depended on who you were working with, who was before and after you).  Worse than high school for clicks and drama.  Be prepared to get called in every weekend/holiday because the full time staff know how to work the system to get the prime time off.


-everyone talks behind your back
-management doesn't even know your name
-nurses are rude to other departments
-expectations are not clear, and then you get in trouble for not meeting expectations
-will fire you before your probation is up for literally no reason
-work till midnight then have to be back in for 8am 

The Health Care Team at Stratford General Hospital are very kind and helpful staff. They have made working here a very great learning experience. The patient care received at HPHA is very therapeutic. I have enjoyed my Temporary position here and would love to come back one day.
