Lake Regional Health System

Very much a "who you know" and a good ole boy environment. The worst place I've ever worked and talk about Nepotism!  Most employees seem miserable and stressed out. Its amazing to me how you can be invited to the Captains table twice in 2 years then stabbed in the back and forced out the next year by bullies. Creates a dangerous environment for patient care. Alot of great employees have been forced to quit or fired for no reason. The practices there push all legal limits and alot of the managers are complete idiots and get away with murder. There are plenty of other places to work within a 30 to 40 minute drive which is totally worth it. So glad I don't work there anymore! Best decision I've ever made! I would definitely not recommend working there and would suggest a prospective employee go outside the area for work if Lake Regional is the only job opportunity available nearby. It isn't worth the toll it takes on a person working for this type of employer in this kind of work environment just to be able to work somewhere close to home.

I worked with some excellent coworkers at Lake Regional, but this is a horrible employer to work for. Constantly understaffed. Management takes an attitude of intimidation over employees. Questionable practices at times in terms of what is asked of employees and how things are handled. All employees seem miserable and stressed out. Creates a dangerous environment for patient care.

Unless you're desperate and need to pay the bills.
I came out-just in time, left this toxic environment, dysfunctional surgical department. Horrible, archaic practices, personalities were unprofessional.  There were good uncertified techs and there were licensed individuals whom were brown noses, jealous and vindictive types. Most cut corners with their skills to beat the time. 
The short time I was there they went through 3 directors! This director they have now, is a puppet to the CEO. They go to the gym together. He will definately have a job for awhile. He is a gossip does not hold anything sacred. He is an interim and is clueless about running certain departments. He uses the good, throws them out and keeps the clueless uneducated ones.  The O.R is filthy and unorganized. 
Glad I got out. Seriously. Do not work in the O.R. here. Very toxic and cut throat.

I came to work here because my family needed me to move closer to them. I took this job although I was over qualified because they said they desperately needed my help with altering the housekeeping in the OR. 
It’s very click-y hard to form bonds but over time I was able to. I’m actually quite fond on the people I’ve met there. Management is not supportive and they are there just to fill a hole and point fingers. They have never been through formal leadership training  and I know it is necessary for those who have no clue how to lead. Lake regional needs to invest into their employees or they will sadly never retain their employees. Unless they know no better. 

I enjoyed my position at LRHS working with Medical Staff, Nursing Staff and other ancillary departments throughout the hospital.  I learned a lot while working in the Lab at the Hospital, learned a lot about Lab and Pathology while working as Pathology Secretary in my first 3 years at LRHS.  I enjoyed working with people, employees, doctors, and other staff of the hospital.  The hardest part of the job is working with government rules, they change so much, but it is was a necessary part of the job that I had to accomplish.  I enjoyed most about my job was the people I worked with.  I loved working in the hospital, being a part of health care team, feeling that I had accomplished a lot working with professional staff, clerical staff and working with public regarding their health records.

I began working for Lake Regional Health Systems in the summer of 2015. I accepted a position in Housekeeping. The work was hard but very rewarding. I enjoyed my hours, coworkers, and never had any issues with management. In the spring of 2016 I transfered to the Lake Regional Clinics as a Float Receptionist. I enjoyed my time spent in clinics helping patients. I would work in all the clinics related to Lake Regional. This past spring I was given the advancement into Learning and Development- Education Department. I now train all the new and current receptionist in the Lake Regional Clinics. I am so proud to represent such a great organization! I was given the recognition to attending a "Captains Table" to have an interactive breakfast with our CEO. Lake Regional has become more than an employer, they have become FAMILY!

Working at Lake Regional Emergency Department was not always easy, but it was always worthwhile. I was blessed with incredible co-workers who would go out of their way to help you in times of need. I learned how to be a nurse of integrity. I learned how to be compassionate even in the most challenging times. I learned how to give selflessly. The management at Lake Regional ER is impeccable. There are two outstanding managers who really know how to make their employees feel loved and appreciated. The hardest part of the job would be the long hours on your feet.  The most enjoyable part of the job was the variety of patients one would care for there. I was blessed to have served in such an educational and caring facility.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Many of the people I work with I have grown quite fond of. They are great to work with

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management is always over your shoulder wanting you to work more with less. Wanting you to work more and more overtime to cover shifts because there is not enough people to work

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They talk about culture of one but if you don't watch your back it is like a massive shark attack and your blind sided 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy. Not enough hours in the day and alwya over time and no lunch

I started at Lake Regional in the summer of 2015. I accepted a role in the housekeeping department. About 8 months later I transitioned into the role of a float receptionist. I traveled from clinic to clinic for almost 3 years before I transitioned back to the hospital in the education department. I work with a team who cares about the success of every employee who comes onboard. We have a manger who supports us, and cares about our work and well being. I’m currently the Onboarding Coordinator. I conduct the Online Orientation and General Orientation for all new employees beginning their careers at Lake Regional. 

There are some great things about the hospital but the staff is horrible to work with.  The nurses are burned out and rude.  The nurses do not support their new coworkers and are unrealistic in their expectations.  They are back stabbing and cut throat.  The aids are busy and even if you try to help they don't get important things done.  Not enough time for nurses to get to educate their patients. Charting is ridiculous and staff turnover seems extremely high.
