Registered nurse

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Extra work is always available, usually with incentive pay, because they can't keep nurses on staff. High turnover.

Cons

Low hourly wages, expensive benefits, poor communication from management, disorganized, bottom dollar is most important. Risk well being of patients in order to keep staffing at minimum.

Disappointing. Not the health care enviroment it should be.

Certified registered nurse anesthetist

Business Outlook

Pros

Can't really think of any. One of two hospitals in the town, and until CHS took, over was the best.

Cons

Have worked at this hospital for 15+ years. Started out as a PCA, then to nursing school, then worked at the hospital in Dothan, Alabama as a nurse for many years. Currently a CRNA at the same hospital. We are being "laid off" so to speak. The Anesthesiology group is being forced to taking us over. The hospital did this with no warning to us. All the benefits we have are gone, sick hours, vacation, everything. Administrations response was we still get a 50% discount in the cafateria. Nice to know our CEO get 17.5 million in bonuses. Nursing pay and staffing are horrible. Patient care is no longer the priority under CHS.

Frustrating and dysfunctional corporate management. Incompetent hospital administrator.

Facilities director

Business Outlook

Pros

Salaries seem to be up to the expected standards amoungst the "for profit" hospital industry. Administration personnel of CHS hospitals are grossly overpaid in comparison to the not for profit healthcare community.

Cons

Horribly micromanaged from the top of the corporate food chain down to the individual hospital administrations. "Bottom Line" trumps everything including customer service, staff morale and capital preservation. Upper management is allowed to be arbitrary in their dealings with supervisory staff. If you are starving, you might take a job with CHS, but make it a last resort.
