Great place to start a NP career - Nurse Practitioner Swenson Healthcare Employee Review

The environment at Swenson Healthcare is very fast paced. You don't have time to be bored or without something to do. I am constantly learning new things that can advance my career within the company as well as add to my resume should I ever decide to leave. The expectations of the employees are high and I feel like that only pushes me to be better each day. I am constantly learning and growing and becoming better at what I do. The amount of guidance throughout the entire company is incredible. I don't know everything and I have seen how willing to guide and teach all of the employees are. They are flexible with work/life balance. They have a set of expectations and as long as you are meeting those expectations, they are happy.

The expectations of the employees can seem high, but I don't see that as a negative thing, I see it as a way to better myself and my skills. None of the expectations are unrealistic, but sometimes they are more than I am used to. But I like a challenge.

I have no pros for this company.

Company will lure you in with fake smiles, hugs, and promises of work-life balance. They have a very toxic work culture towards NP's and PA's, but yet will expect them to do all the manual labor while the physicians take credit or copy your work. The call expectation is unreasonable. You will be on call every working day evening in addition to a straight 7 days around the clock. Swenson is pompous and treats and speaks to his employees unfairly. He will attempt to drain patients Medicare dollars and doesn't care about the residents. I would not trust Swenson to care for anyone I loved. You will have no work-life balance and forget about having a personal life. It's a highly malignant culture. They cannot keep providers because they keep mistreating and running them off. In 2019, 5 providers quit, including the VP, coder, & recruiter. That ought to tell you something!
