Fairbury Hospital Work Values

Daily Duties at Fairbury Hospital:

I was respomsible for scheduling staff for all areas and mediating disputes between staff. After 4pm the only pharmacist left, and the supervisor was reresponsible for pulling medications for the entire facilty.The hospital was 24 bed institution, 20 bed Skilled Nursing Facility and a 70 bed Nursing Home. I provided breaks for staff and sometimes I was the only RN in house except for the OB nurse. The ER was staffed with a tech and all emergiecies were handled by the house supervisor; including codes and trauma. As the acting assistant director of nursing I revised policy and procedures and wrote new ones as technology advanced.

What they like about Fairbury Hospital:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
