Low Compensation With Minimal Advancement Opportunities - Patient Care Technician Northside Hospital Employee Review

Consistent merit raises, pension enrollment, positive healthcare plans, tuition reimbursement, loan assistance/forgiveness, opportunity for growth throughout system, flexible scheduling for many positions, huge focus on patient safety and quality programs,

traffic depending on your campus location, sometimes growth of system is hard to handle, sometimes too physician friendly

-some of the nurses on the floor were nice -gets your foot in the door with a hospital as a student -supportive management on the floor i was hired on

-low pay for what you put up with -was mainly working as a patient care tech as opposed to a nurse extern -nurses on the med/surg floors weren’t very nice and willing to help -don’t feel like i got enough training -the pre shift anxiety was horrendous
