Pros
The hospital was a gift to the community from the LDS church. I really believe that it started with good intention. A lot of people who have been with IHC for a long time really put their heart and soul into their work.
Cons
I have been with IHC for a long time. Even with the pay being comparably lower I felt well compensated because of the good benefits and felt that I was a valued part of my team. IHC is stripping these benefits away at an alarming rate without raising wages proportionately. Only 8 sick calls per year even for staff that are exposed daily, or work with immunocompromised patients. Ihc’s funeral leave went from 4 days to 1 for grandparents- can’t even go out of town for a funeral. Call back pay is absolute joke at this hospital- I would never plan on it. Most policies at IHC are written by people sitting behind desks working normal business hours and are not applicable at all to medical staff pinching numbers at front line workers expense. As an RN or front line worker at this hospital you feel you’re disposable and at the bottom of the priority list. Never used to feel that way until more recently. Culture is unit dependent. With them stripping more and more away, you’re at the mercy of your management.
