For most technical positions, compensation is at least slightly above average comparable to local competitors. 

Intrapersonal employee-to-employee work culture is above average. There tends to be a sense of solidarity regarding the struggles of working in healthcare; interestingly, “kindness” is a widely and commonly practiced core tenet. 

Cultural tolerance even down to most aspects of accommodating dress code exceptions, is excellent. 

As with many for-profit corporations, instruments tend to be somewhat aged, and software feels outdated, but is mostly tolerable due to associated positives of working for CHS, overall. 

Of course, most aspects differ facility to facility, but I would be comfortable trying a CHS facility different to the one by which I was employed.

I am thrilled to be a member of this wonderful organization, where I have had the pleasure of experiencing a supportive work environment thanks to the leadership's dedication to creating a collaborative workspace that prioritizes excellent patient care. As a registered nurse, my aspiration is to return in the future as an advanced practice provider, now that I have obtained my licensure and certification as a family nurse practitioner. Without reservation, I enthusiastically recommend this institution as a top choice for employment.

The staff was extremely friendly and patient as a new hire coming in. I did a 6 month seasonal and ended up staying a year. Equipment and information system are older. It’s a busy small place. I myself had nothing but good experience.  Most difficult thing is finding housing.
