AMITA Health reviews

Lowest base pay of any suburban hospitals, short staffed, unrealistic work load, management hides in the office all day with no offer to help, no unit or floor rotation for RTs, AMITA prefers to hire agency than giving raises, small bonuses, policy that staff must clock out for the 30 min required break, staff can not clock in or out more than 1 minute before start of shift, HR ignores staff concerns or needs, benefit package is over priced and little coverage, turn over rate is ridiculous, management and staff spend good portion of the shift on smoke breaks, ER patients wait up to 2 or more hours just to be seen, even if it's chest pain or shortness of breath, MDs and RNs slow to ship out critical patients that the staff isn't equipped or trained to handle, most NICU staff are rude, inappropriate, and unprofessional towards therapists.

Atmosphere here is not conducive to a healthy working enviroment. Turnover is almost weekly and training is archaic at best. This department is managed like a prison by managers that do not know how to handle people in todays work environment. Management seems to look past the core of the problem which leads to the high turnover rate. This is not a happy or healthy place to work. There is a reason for the high turnover rate and HR has not stepped in to correct this so consequently the turnover will continue.
