      I have been working at Fairview Health Services full-time (More than 5 years)

      Pros

      Fairview offers a decent benefits package with tuition reimbursement, certification bonuses, and competitive pay. The decision model involves staff nurses and leadership seems to care about their employees for the most part.

      Cons

      At times it has proven extremely difficult to receive the benefits that Fairview offers.

      Advice to Management

      Really listen to your employees. The happiness of staff will impact patient outcomes which will impact the financial well being of an organization.

      Easy job answering room service calls from patients. Some downtime/free time between calls during slow periods.

      Pros

      Wish I could find some pros

      Cons

      Constant restructuring, people are disposable, eventually your job will be eliminated. News articles down play the people they have laid off. If you are a Healtheast employee your job will be restructured and given to a Fairview employee, with a different title.

      Advice to Management

      No advice, what will be done will be done, they don’t care what the staff think.

      Pros

      Fair salaries, have been around a long time

      Cons

      Mergers are always tough, but switching managers multiple times in a year is a bit much.

      Advice to Management

      Keep lines of communication open.
