Okay - Patient Care Technician Saint Joseph Health System Employee Review

Small rural hospital, colleagues feel like family, good security operations in place (cameras, policies, etc).

Could be boring if you like action.

Pay is decent, there is a cafe, work is light in comparison to other area pharmacy's and they are willing to work with your availability with the exception of every other weekend, that is a must. You can take it off sometimes.

Favoritism is obvious. All management seem fearful to enforce accountability. Rude and insufficient technicians are promoted while good ones leave because they can no longer stand the culture. Some pharmacists treat technicians as if they are their personal assistant, asking them to do things they are perfectly capable of doing when they see the tech(s) have been running ragged all day or are currently juggling many tasks and could actually use help themselves. They don't take a second to consider if the tech is busy. Some do, but most don't bat an eye. Lack of Growth.
