SwedishAmerican Health System Reviews

I have been working at SwedishAmerican Health System full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – payscale is fair, shift differential for evening and night shift, good benefits

Cons – Not a lot of potential for advancement for nursing unless you're willing to put out a lot of money for schooling in return for a small raise.

Advice to Senior Management – Get to know your staff, help out on the floor periodically on ALL shifts.

I have been working at SwedishAmerican Health System

Pros – Swedish American is the leader in Health Care in the northern Illinois area. Winner of numerous National Quality awards. Always working on increasing employee and patient satisfaction.

Cons – Compensation is not competitive. Annual raises are not attached to employee performance. Director level management is extremely competitive. Lots of politics being played on management level.

Advice to Senior Management – Make compensation more competitive with other health systems. Compensation is the number one way to make employees feel appreciated. Work on eliminating the politics game.
