AnMed Health

Anmed Health is a system that awards and rewards grandfathered employees with an out of jail free card. The senior staff can do no wrong even if it is blatant. It is a good ol’boy system that is extremely difficult to advance. The raises are very minimal, on average it’s a 1.5 % raise. If said person has a single write up or misses one of their continuing education modules the raise will be declined to be given. The main hospital has senior staff that literally hide in areas to avoid pt interaction but are never admonished for their actions. Staff are encouraged to acknowledge mistakes possibly made, but beware that if you do it will affect you in every aspect of your job, whether it is wanting advancement, raise or respect from management. Honestly the management is really a joke. They can make mistakes but never have any consequences. There are so many managers that you have no clear idea who you are supposed to report to.  The staff at the North Campus Womens and children’s hospital are blatant in your face religious. While I have no problem with this, when patients leave or are walking past rooms where medical procedures are taking place and hear scripture or hymns being sung. They ask if Anmed is religious hospital like ST. Francis the answer is no. Staff members who show their religious spirit are treated with respect and favoritism. If you are a person of size, the staff including management treat you differently, often feeling excluded or ridiculed. The hospital does not feel like they need to bring up pay to economic value. There is an xray tech program through Anmed but because of this program they feel they do not have to pay their employees economic value salaries because they have new fresh students who graduate and will work for pennies. They do have some great doctors and nurses who generally like where they work, and it shows in their performance and how their patients are treated.

This company has a lot to improve on. Part time employees who work extra hours never get any benefits. Full time employees are asked daily to flex/leave early due to budget. Business office employees have no clue how to do their job and never return patient calls.  If your coworker violates HIPPA or corporate compliance, you are expected to keep your mouth shut about it and never say anything.   They require uniforms but don’t help you purchase any, so if you can’t afford them you have to wash your one uniform daily. Some doctors provide their office employees with uniforms which is unfair to other office employees that don’t get that benefit. A raise is like 20 cents or less once a year which does nothing for the cost of living.  Drug reps are not allowed to provide catered lunches. There is no sanitary hot/cold water machine in the break room. There isn’t even working water fountains available for patients.   They just closed their pharmacies  and laid off those employees.   Everybody in your department talks/gossips about everybody else behind backs. A lot of back stabbing.  You can’t trust anyone you work with and that is just sad.  They have implemented a goal system where you only get that dime raise if you meet your goals.  They care more about completing the goals than providing good customer service to patients.  If you truly care about people and helping them in any way you can, you will struggle here because that is not their first priority. AnMed’s first priority is saving money.

I really enjoyed the work I did at AnMed. I'm definitely an office person. There were things I had to do that were outside of my job description and made me uncomfortable. The pay definitely needs to be raised to at least $16 hourly considering I saw everything from gunshot wounds, miscarriages, elder abuse, and more. I also only got a 30 minute break once a day while my neighbor care facility for an hour. I also helped out the neighbor care facility many times everyday. I feel that management needs to focus more on training all of their subordinates so that the entire front end doesn't fall on to one person (speaking from experience). Management also needs to be able to jump in and help as a front end person when needed. I loved what I did, but did not feel valued, backed up, or important at all from and to management. With more support, better pay, and fairness to all employees, it could be a fantastic place to work and retire from one day.

A typical day at work is providing healthcare with interesting co-workers and providers to a variety of patients.  Phones are constantly ringing and messages being taken while appointments are scheduled and changed.  Very busy atmosphere and a lot of multi-tasking because administration and clinical environments are ever changing and adapting to today's supply and demand.  What I've learned and continue to learn is that everyone is different and change is a good thing.  Take the good with the bad and always remain positive and professional.  The hardest part of the job is not being able to heal everyone completely or make everyone happy because there is so much diversity and versatility in healthcare.  Unfortunately it is a necessary evil to be ethically sound and follow policies and procedures for the safety and mission but guidelines are a barrier in healthcare sometimes.  The most enjoyable part of the job is that I change people's lives for the better and make a difference every day.  I have pride in all that I do because I know I can always improve someone's quality of life through my services.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The patient experience is great, management not so much.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The structure of the company lends itself to protecting one class of employee at the literal expense of another. I worked in a team of 4, two were nurses, one with an AS degree and one with a BSN. Myself and my other coworker had a masters degree and licensed to practice therapy in the state. Management decided to give the nurses a 10k retention bonus and told my coworker and me that we didn't rate the bonus nor a raise which the nurses also got. I have twice the education,  experience   and I was constantly having to fix the mistakes made by nurses working out of their field.  7 years of education, two years of residency and a nurse with a two year associate degree is valued more than we were...run don't walk to the nearest exit.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
If your a nurse your fine, everyone else is seen as garbage.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Assessments,  treatment plans,  running group therapy sessions,  and trying to stay off management's radar.

A typical day at work could include anything from posting personal & insurance payments, posting hospital charges & filing insurance to working the front desk and/or filling in for anyone that was out for any reason. My responsibilities were many and the tasks varied a great deal depending on the day and circumstances.

I learned a great deal about a field of medicine that was new to me.

My manager was wonderful.  She was very supportive and caring.  

The hardest part of the job was having an inadequate number of staff members to perform all tasks necessary for complete patient satisfaction.  

The official workplace culture is that patients always come first. Unfortunately, patients do not always feel that way.  Sometimes that is due to circumstances beyond your control (weather related closings, etc..) and sometimes it can be due to inadequate staffing.

The hardest part of the job was losing a patient to their illness or disease.

The most enjoyable part of the job, for me, was interaction with our patients.

In the time that I worked there, I’ve had good and bad times. My co-workers were amazing and they always had my back. However, there is quite a bit of favoritism in the department. In terms of staffing, day shift will work with roughly 7-8 if fully staffed. Night shift works with 5 if they’re fully staffed. Starting pay isn’t the best if you have no experience. They’ve got great benefits. The work/life balance isn’t really there. If there’s staffing issues, be expecting calls from the supervisors (You’re not obligated to go in). The Human Resources department isn’t the best, so getting in was a hassle. I waited 1-2 weeks for a job offer even though the manager and director gave it the green light. You will absolutely be fighting people, so if you don’t want to put your hands on people when it comes down to it, don’t even think about it. 

Overall, it’s a pretty good place to work for, but it isn’t everyone’s type of thing. 

Security department is horrible! Training is non-existent the trainer skips through things tells you youll figure it out then when you dont understand or get it they get frustrated at you even though you were not trained properly. They expect this place to be your life. They ask you to work everyday you are off, but the management wont step in and help. There are supervisors in the department that are not certified security but are over groups of officers.  The director of security has nothing positive for the department. They do not believe what a employee of the department says unless you are in their clique. There is a lack of communication and less work ethic in 90% of the people who work in this department.  The shifts are very onesided they are very differently staffed. That being said nightshiftes are undrrstaffed as days in overly staffed. There isnt anyone who is on the same page its a out for each ones self there isnt a team atmosphere. 

Working on the pulmonary floor at AnMed Health offers a fast-paced and clinically rewarding experience for nurses. Patients often present with complex respiratory conditions such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, pneumonia, and acute respiratory failure, which allows nurses to strengthen critical thinking and assessment skills. Teamwork is a strong point, with respiratory therapists and providers collaborating closely to support patient care. The unit can be busy, especially during peak respiratory illness seasons, and staffing ratios may feel challenging at times. However, the supportive coworkers and opportunities to build strong clinical foundations make it a valuable environment, particularly for newer nurses interested in pulmonary or progressive care. Overall, it’s a great place to gain experience, though resilience and strong time-management skills are essential for success on this unit.


AnMed Health provides an environment suitable for learning new skills. I have been given the opportunity to work on many of the floors within the facility and have grown to adapt to patient care depending on the diagnosis. The coworkers I currently have are very nice and many of the nurses are excited in helping me grow into a competent nurse. I enjoy working with patients and collaborating with the other members of the interdisciplinary team. There are always difficult parts of a job but I do not focus on those aspects as I feel that patient care and time management are the most important factors of this position, making my job very enjoyable. I appreciate being able to communicate with people of many different backgrounds as I believe it helps one grow into a culturally aware individual. AnMed Health has helped me grow and I appreciate all the opportunities given to me!
