What is the best part of working at the company?
I thought it was the patients. They were my reason for taking the job in the first place.
As far as CHS is concerned, it does not matter what the truth might be the company wasn’t interested in that, they were only interested in pleasing the patient, not finding out what may have happened and explaining it correctly TO THAT PATIENT!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
All the bullying by co-workers, lack of action to control such bullying by management, gossiping ALL the time and management more concerned w/being everyone’s friend instead of watching and listening to what is going on right under their noses! 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The environment was hostile! As for culture, there’s not a lot if very little “ culture “ where I worked!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Come in with a smile, stick my cart as the shift before never did so. Took patient blood tickets from the printer and went to each patient’s room. I introduced myself and said where I was from and that I was there to take blood from them as ordered. I talked with patients as I took their blood, labeled it with their names stickers and put it in a bio-hazard bag and sealed it up! I bid them a good day/evening and left their room. I would then return to the lab, receive their blood by going into the computer system under the patient name and date of birth. Check the tests and received as done. Lastly, drop off each tube in the proper departments for testing or sending out to a lab who can do the listed test!!

This place is a joke. The only thing decent is the pay. I accepted a contract position part time originally ONLY because the agency and mgmt at CHS said that a position would be opening up in my field within a few weeks. I had never worked in a Fullfillment area, however it was a print shop, and those weeks turned into months.  Started with another woman and she left after 2 weeks.. They went through one other person who left after 2 months and the last person I was working with is now gone as well.  I worked part time and needed full time.  I was put Entity Mgmt doing some other work but placed back and forth. I believe I asked my staffing agency 10 times as well as mgmt at CHS where this position was I was promised and only thing that led me to take this job.  There wasn’t a position they guaranteed from the beginning.. they needed someone to fill the spot and lied to do so. Our trainer was pretty much the reason each person quit. Aside from micro managing he was a spaz. I will say very smart and knew what he was doing but in the print shop.  Talked down to everyone and his verbal skills were all over the place.  He basically remained employed from what I was told because each Dept could order him to do something and he would run and do it. Either way the place lost a lot of employees that were executives and all due to the poor mgmt and little knowledge of running a business.

Extremely welcoming to LGBTQA+ people.
Huge opportunities for advancement for LGBTQA+
LGBTQA+ people simply will not find a more welcoming employer.
Corporate office sends out company emails nearly weekly to all employees to promote/boast about their latest Gay PRIDE parade, LGBTQA+ conference at some local city, etc.   All such activities are rigidly supported, enforced and protected by upper management.
Any employees holding more traditional or religious world views which disagree with their LGBTQA programs are not tolerated.
LGBTQA+ people simply will not find an employer offering more opportunities for advancement and job security than CHS.

I liked working at the hospital, worked hard to help my patients.  The patients need you and I never wanted to let them down. Management knew how hard you worked while most of the department socialized. 
When I finally needed help due to illness, HR and manager did the best they could to make things harder for you to get to doctors and get tests. I never was able to use my short term and long term disability because they made my job harder no matter what physician said, so I thought I'd resign then go back when I was better. Another company purchased hospital and I got blackmailed.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Leaving. It was an unpleasant experience. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything. The managers acted like Atilla the Hun. We were continually short staffed. At month end we pulled 15 to 20 hour days.  It was very stressful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very backbiting not very supportive. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Come pull reports. Go to insurance web portals attempt to pull remiss. Route the remiss to rhe correct cash poster. Have managers upset because the cash posters didn't post the amounts correctly. Although the remit had the correct amounts.

Management of a 17 bed critical care unit and 23 bed PCU was extremely challenging. The 2 units had been under the leadership of 5 managers in a 3 year time frame, and morale was at an all time low. After working there for 2 years and asking for another manager to be made available for the 2nd unit so that the staff could be adequately trained/supervised for more competent patient care, I had to step away from the facility. Once more stabilized, the staff of both units worked well together as a team. Manager was expected to step in and staff any shift at short or no notice, sometimes working up to nearly 20 hrs. within a 24 hr. time frame.  Management colleagues were good to work with as a team.

Typical day taking care of dementia residents. I never learned anything due to they never taught anything relating to the job or dementia residents.  I learned that management is more afraid of the dementia residents families and being on their side. The DON and Administrator is useless and you cannot talk to any of them or Human Resources. The management sticks up for families not the staff. Hardest part of job is getting yelled at, sworn at in front entrance way or in front of everyone on the floor you are working on. The only enjoyable thing is the people/ residents

I spent 5 years with this company, in that time life happened and unfortunately my fiancé at the time lost his father, I was not allowed bereavement leave , nor was anyone allowed to donate their time off ( a common occurrence for "certain" people) only some employees were held to the company standards and the patient relations higher ups got to choose what applied to who whenever it suited them. The turnover was extremely high, direct management was horrendous, employees were treated like school children instead of adults. If you took your issues to HR they ignored them and told you to tough it out. overall I would give 0 stars if I could. 

I enjoy the things my job entails for the most part. It can be rough, but that's healthcare. However, this is mad into a nightmare due to management. They will attempt to bully you into covering shifts, ignore medical limitations if it's inconvenient for them, and generally make you miserable via micromanaging. The team lead will not stick up for you and will not have your back. HR will do nothing to help you. You're basically on your own. No wonder they've had retention issues; they're basically doing everything they can to make people leave. Save yourself the headache and don't apply here.
