The University of Kansas Hospital Reviews in Kansas City, MO Area

Pros

great health care benefits, ample opportunity for advancement and growth, nurses input on standards of practice is very important and appreciated,

Cons

you have to play the same beurocratic games at this hospital that you would anywhere else. All over town you play the same game, just in a different place.

Advice to Senior Management

Be more open to hiring more nurses to fill open positions. The amazing growth of the hospital needs more nurses to work the floor to prevent burn out. Many nurses are tired and stressed out.

Pros

Great Benefits best in KC
Pay ok

Cons

wheres Management overnight
Bad Communication

Advice to Senior Management

Talk to us, let us know when you change things, and tell us when people are off.

Pros

Great Benefits! Seems like a growing Hospital. They seem to have a goal to be a World Class Hospital. It is a Magnet hospital, award for great nursing. And as long as you go to a KU doctor or clinic or the Hospital it is free, no copays!

Cons

Well I work in one of the support services department, and I am a Hospital employee but my bosses are working for ARAMARK. I have to tell you the is kind of different and it sucks. Their is also a break down of commutation, I work night shift and I never know about new polices and such.

Advice to Senior Management

You all do a good job, but you have a few places where you can improve. But, that is anywhere you work. Thanks, for all the hard work you do(if you do any).

Pros

I worked there several years in several areas and found the benefits to be good regarding vacation and pension/retirement. I always had fabulous co-workers, just generally nice people. There were lots of opportunities for growth it seemed in each department or the opportunity to transitioning to a different role in another department if desired. Once the Hospital separated from the State of Kansas, the rules changed a bit and the direction of the Hospital became more clear and employees seemed to take more ownership in their work. It then became an even nicer place to work. I highly recomment it.

Cons

It's a very big place and sometimes overwhelming.

Advice to Senior Management

Listen to your employees more.
