Legacy Health Reviews

Competing priorities creates a bi-polar and disorganized work culture. Employees are important and valued in their stated "mission and values"; but the actualization is not there because of their competing values of being the frontrunner in medicine coupled with their participation in most of the new govt programs are not compatible, The new regulations do not take employee/provider satisfaction into account and the new programs require more staff then Legacy will commit too. They will fail if they haven't adjusted this crucial piece...

Lets review: 3 MILLION dollar fine for not ensuring lunch breaks from the Oregon Labor and Industry; the Legacy Meridian Park Medical Center is laying off all RTs and having them rebid for their positions. Some old timers are now offered on-call night shift. They have weaponized the method of reporting mistakes instead of using it to correct mistakes. Legacy likes to advertise their "Just Culture". This idea is used very oddly as managers do not hold themselves or their favorites to this standard. Staffing is based on "billable activities" leaving all the little jobs that take much of the shift uncounted. Staffing is a big problem as Legacy wants to balance their books by working us harder. Legacy will not take responsibility for the results of this. It's the workers fault even if there are not enough workers. Benefits have gone down each year I have worked there and more claims are being denied.
