How employees describe working at Mercy Hospital
Housekeepers aren't treated very well and we are forgotten most of the time.
Great culture and tenure across all teams
Lack of staffing increases problems. The administration does not communicate with hospital employees. It cuts the budget but does not discuss it with the departments, which hurts.
Initiate direct communication with hospital employees. If hospital departments are measured on productivity, then administration must share their productivity objectively. Non-clinical administration should not outnumber clinical administration.
Starts with the leader, staffing, and acuity

How are layoffs handled in the Admin department at Mercy Hospital?
Poorly and suddenly, with no notice. They let you work part of your shift, then let you know you’re gone. Experienced good workers got let go.
Pretty often. Sometimes yearly. Sometimes every few years. Often enough that we experience a lot of fear.
How do you feel about Mercy Hospital's future?
It’s only going to get worse. OKC is already the most underpaid hospital in the city. Then all the incentives are gone. Now they are going back the last 5 months and NOT matching our 401k any more. Now they are forcing unsafe low staffing.
Every day is expected to be my last. Mercy frequently eliminates positions. Why not make an effort to transfer staff into another position? Why make your dedicated staff fear losing everything? Why not find ways to save money by actually listening to staff input?
