Pros
After spending more than 30 yearsin the healthcare industry, many of those years being spent in other cities, I can honestly say this the best healthcare institution with which I have ever been employed. Of course there are tough times, but that is healthcare. What impresses me the MOST about Hendrick is the endeavor of employees to LIVE out the Mission Statement every day with every encounter. From the CEO, all the way down the ladder, the patient is at the center of every decision. Employees are empowered to participate in changes and voice opinions regarding new decisions. Obviously, no every employee or every patient will be pleased, but the effort is made every time. Prior to my employment with Hendrick, I was looking to leave the Abilene area; now I plan on retiring from Hendrick. I am proud to be part of this team and to make a positive impact on the Abilene and surrounding communities.
Cons
Lower than industry standard pay
