Monrovia-Memorial-Hospital

Small hospital so only one rad tech worked at a time. Work orders were put in for the day near the nurses station, so easy access to ask questions about certain patients Work load would be very dependent if there were surgeries scheduled or not.The room equipment was quite old.  We had CR, no DR.  One of the C-arms had "bad suspension" so pictures would sometimes be blurry when taken after changing orientation.  Majority of patients were non ambulatory, some with dementia  and contracted body parts, which could make positioning quite difficult at times.  Many patients were on IV, feeding tubes, breathing tubes and catheterized which required careful maneuvering when placing and removing the x-ray plate.  When ever I ran into a difficult or quite large patient, the staff was very helpful in positioning.  Most enjoyable past of the day was coming in and your coworkers greeting you with a smile   My boss was very accessible by phone, but for the most part you were on your own in the department during your shift

No structure, No supportive management.  It's all about the profit over the patient.  If you want to be STUCK in your professional career than this place is for you.  It's a great stepping stone to "move-on" and advance but don't just settle for less and get stuck there like everybody else.
Only offer Medical & Dental benefits.  No 401K or any other benefits that we can have as Pre-Tax deductions.   

Facility is still paper based charts....way behind the times on technology.

Nurses don't want helps CNA went requesting help to turn pts, i was on orientation for few days, i been see it bad things, one of the new CNA asking for help the charge nurse,and  her answer was, i busy looking for someone else!!  I been see it a lot stress for C.N.A. They  left al responsibility for just C.N.A. I believe pts it's  R.N . Charge nurse and C.N.A respisabili to make quality care ..  That's why i decided to quit  i been more then 12 yrs as C.N.A. And i never been working  place like that..

Job was fairly easy, way more hours were given to get the job done than was nessesary. The hours were never less than 40, so it was nice to know that my paychecks were always the same. My schedule was set, so my shifts were dependable and never changed. Very rarely offered over time. Requested days off were never denied.

This was my first job and I learned a lot from working at this hospital. The inpatients are high acuity and there are specialty surgeries and an ICU unit which all contribute to the learning possibilities. The hospital is small but the environment is fast-paced. Great place to develop your skills and be part of a close-knit working team.

This company is private owned and it got really slow at one point and they started cutting hours badly that alot of cna's and rn's left. For housekeeper workers it was so slow at times we didn't have work and would spend most of the day sitting or even falling asleep due it being slow. We would work probably 3-4 days which isn't good if your a single parent and need money. Not to mention

A typical work day is 12 hours a shift (Nights). Two patient assignment, care for ventilated patients. Long term acute facility. Caring co-workers. Hardest part of the job would be imposed over time. Most enjoyable aspect is when there is time to give proper care to the patients. Multi-cultural clientel.

At Monrovia you will have a 5 to 1 patient ratio.  It is a fast paced environment and challenging.  You will work with ventilators, g-tubes, and cardiac monitors.  Team work is a big part of the culture.   the hardest part of the job is dealing with the fast pace environment.  The most enjoyable part of the job is working the the patients and co-workers.

Understaffed in the department I worked in (Medical Records). Management was particularly detailed and was very critical of work performed. I understand the confidentiality aspect of the position, but the work environment was very stressful.

This hospital if fairly small.  I is like working on a convalescent home but instead with hospital setting.  Is a great place to work and get experience.  Jobs at this hospital requires a a lot of physical demands.
