Pros

Open communication, excellent doctors and nurses who care about their patients. Benefits and salary similar to other hospitals in the area. Support for continuing education with some funding.

Cons

Management heavy as in any large organization. Difficult to implement change, as it is hard to maneuver through all the levels.

Pros

Excellent care, compassionate caregivers, top doctors and clinicians of all disciplines! Has a good reputation in the community, well respected and trusted. Very generous with charity care for those who qualify...Swedish Foundation and employees are very generours in their donations to the Swedish Charity Care & Special Funding each year; it truly shows their dedication to their work and long-standing commitment to the community, and thanks to philanthropic corporations and individuals of this community, they are super stars and have been very supportive. Swedish continues to evolve to maintain and become the best in medical practice. Swedish supports and has the support and affiliation with many other medical centers, the medical community here works together for the best care of their patients.

Cons

Unfortunately, the economy has forced many hospitals to scale back on staffing and I was one of those employees who has experienced a job elimination, it is very unfortunate but I understand it, volumes are down, in this economny many people are forced to postpone elective surgeries and sometimes postpone general medical care across the board. But, I do know that patient care does not suffer, Swedish will continue to make bedside care a number one priority, patients come first.
