Mat-Su Regional Medical Center

Your supervisors won’t care about you or anything important to you. They’ll only care about there own job security. If a touch situation comes up they aren’t willing to help you and aren’t willing to hear and listen to what you have to say. Employees back stab each other and are always willing to get you in trouble at any moment. Especially if you work extremely hard to impress people. GOING ABOVE AND BEING HEAR WILL ON PUT A TARGET ON YOUR CHEST!! Hard work can go unrecognized to an unreal extent by supervisors. CNA’s and Housekeepers along with RN’s have it the worst. CNA’s are worked to death. RNs have to many patients to take care of. ER has to many psych patients in it at once. Doctors don’t move people through fast enough or have to many patients to doctor ratio. Housekeepers work hard having to take care of patients and the facility when there should be people rotating shifts of patient care and general facility cleaning. Some housekeepers are lazy and some work extremely hard. Typically the ones that work hard don’t stay long and the ones that do end up staying aren’t given any bonuses or raises. The ones that are lazy do nothing about talk and gossip and are quick to throw each other under the bus.

This place is a joke. They will hire brand new RN's, then give them 6-7 patients to take care of. In my few months in this hellhole, I saw more than a few brand new RN's have breakdowns in the breakroom or medroom. The parenting company, CSI, has unrealistic goals for the nurses on the floor. And will throw any RN under the bus if anything happens. As with all hospital in Alaska, it is a revolving door when it comes to staff. And because of this, the hospital is severely understaffed, which creates unsafe patient loads on the nurses that work there. The CNA's are another story all together. I remember a few days where the CNA's would have close to 20 patients a piece, and they were expected to give bed baths to all patients. While also doing all the duties that they are normally expected to do. I would not recommend this Hospital to my worst enemy. The only brightside is that the food in the cafeteria is excellent. And that was the only thing that I looked forward to during any of my shifts. This hospital is poorly managed, and I have personally seen patients die because of it.

I was able to become certified and feel like a team working here. Beginning the day was sometimes stressful, but with a team that works well, it made it easier. I learned that you can't trust everyone you work with and when you try to help others it can drag you down. Management seemed to try and minimize that.
Co-workers were great, when they were permanent. Traveling techs, didn't have the desire, and didn't seem to want to be part of the team. The hardest part of the job, would have been doing other peoples jobs, due to the lack of work ethic and desire they would put in. Interacting with others was my favorite part of this job.

This hospital does not care about their nurses.  They'll work you to death and then toss you aside when they can't work you any harder.  They don't stand behind their employees and will leave you to fend for yourself if anything goes wrong.  If you do decide to try your luck working for "death valley" as it's accurately referred to locally, make sure you're carrying some hefty malpractice insurance and have a backup job lined up. There's absolutely a reason for the extremely high turnover rate here, so save yourself the hassle and work somewhere worth your time.

Mat-Sue Regional Medical Center was and is the best place I have ever worked.  This hospital is a good example of how; management, union employees and profitability can happen while providing a quality, safe, clean working environment for all stakeholders.  The client appreciation/satisfaction is direct result of our success.  I would still be working at Mat-Sue regional medical center if it were not for being relocated to California due to my husbands job.  I love the medical EVS field and I am looking forward to bringing my susses in Alaska to a California facility.

Get to work go to a Meeting, come to your desk do some work more meetings, eat lunch at your desk take some training, go to a meeting,  after 9 hours leave to go home and get dirty looks by those that started work hours after you did.   I learned to have resignation letter and Resume ready at all times.  Management is plaing games with the safety of everyone there by not wanting to spend money on needed equipment. Culture sounds good but no loyalty to anyone. Knowing you can not fix things because CFO will not allow the money to be spent. 
Save yourselves, work someplace else.  

I love what I do, and I loved the people I directly worked with. Management frequently makes you feel small, inadequate, and stupid. Find a place that appreciates you and what you are capable of doing. This place creates division instead of unity, they lack the ability to respect people and build off of their strengths. Rather they tear you apart based off of your weaknesses. Management would rather be a boss of people that never gets their hands dirty, than a group of leaders willing to be on the frontlines with you.
