Community Health Systems reviews

Horrible, uncaring hospital administration. Expect nurses to spend more time doing computer and paperwork instead of supporting them with help to do PATIENT care. I've been a nurse for 32+ years and this isthe WORST place I've ever worked. I can't WAIT to finish my 2 year requirement (in order not to have to pay them back for relocation expenses). No wonder there is such a high turn around of staff in all positions -- not just nursing staff.

No support from CHS upper level leadership, no trust, 15-20 years behind in business technology, no raises or market adjustments in over 5 years, low salaries, no education/training/culture to promote from within. Slow growth. Too many "senior" leaders riding their time and making poor, inept decisions that impact the future of the firm. Low patient satisfaction. Low physician satisfaction. Board of Trustees make decisions influenced by round table group-think rather skill, speed, intelligence and are grossly over paid. Hiring freezes every 60-90 days and health plan is reduced to simple major medical insurance coverage that is very expensive and useless unless you have invasive surgery.
