What is the best part of working at the company?
The amount of training and support they will give you especially for a new hire

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Staffing challenges that are sometimes inevitable.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Almost everyone are supportive, you wouldn't hesitate to ask questions and for help.


What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Most days are busy, some days are benign.

This is a unionized hospital which means job security and annual pay increases.  There are always staff events going on to boost morale and the managers are always very flexible in helping to accommodate you whenever needed.  Being in a union kind of forces them to be accommodating to their staff.  Medical and dental benefits are great and it's a great pension.  Only complaint is that you have to pay for parking...$110/month.

Some staff were helpful, many were not. Many staff were rude and made inappropriate comments about the clients or students. Students were often not included or left on our own to figure things out and when we asked for help, most staff would be irritated with us. Would never work on this floor ever again, no wonder they are always trying to find new staff...

Pretty busy most of the time. Very structured though, you know what you’re supposed to be doing at all times. The staff you work with can be hit or miss, but the supervisors can be brutal. Constantly hounding you for things, and the communication between management is awful.

Clinical Externs were essentially underpaid PSWs. Managers of this extern program were wonderful and caring, but the actual day-to-day work on the unit you are assigned to was not good. No one really cares about the externs and knows what to do with us. We're only paid $17/hr despite having almost 2 degrees. 

This position was very hands on and fast paced. Learned alot of new skills to take to the next job position. Enjoyed wearing hard hat and steel toed boots.

Usually a typical work day consisted of Assisting staff in the Intensive
Care Unit, Same Day Surgery Unit and the
Ambulatory Care clinic, handling and serving patients
snacks and drinks, helping cancer patients sign into
the system for their appointment

Co-workers were very outgoing & helpful. 
Positive working atmosphere. 
Management noticed hard work.
Very fast past environment. 
Learned how to handle different situations.

Get paid well but ever since covid its been getting worse and worse. Overworked and very underpaid while being stressed and no praise. Can be difficult
