Columbine Health System Reviews

Hiring and on-boarding is inefficient and ineffective Career advancement is difficult Meaningful continuing education is minimal Poor training program- utilize overworked employees to train Nurses are valued more than other employees-other roles are underpaid Operations are ran like a small business at individual facilities but any change at the corporate level is oppositional Operations, overall, is not cohesive and lacks communication Upper management does nothing to to improve diversity. equity, and inclusion- in fact, it is common to be neglected and/or bullied Favoritism is common- especially in management Fear of retribution- or suggestions for improvement are ignored Recognition is insufficient Profit and reputation are pushed as a main focus- positive social media presence is valued more than continuing education Profit over people- - e.g. requiring patients to use Columbine pharmacy Almost every employee feels overworked, partially, because they hire the least amount of staff required which results in short staffing regularly Broken equipment leads to difficulty completing job duties to 100%, but also risking injury Work/life balance is not a priority- you are expected to go above and beyond your job duties Extremely low pay for workload Middle-management is required to take on multiple roles with a max 2% annual raise Health benefits are subpar considering this is a healthcare company that partners with a major medical group

Completely delusional management, super unorganized, no computer literacy whatsoever, no process improvement, blame the RN or LPN is what they do, over worked , pharmacy screwed up don't have medications, schedule doesn't come out until last minute and you have little to no input. Myself and several other new RN's just recently hired quit specifically because we felt our licenses were at stake. They will blame the nurse for their incompetency. Poor pay, benefits don't start for 90 days after hire, probably because its a revolving door.
