More about Sweetwater Care

The organization's mission is to transition facilities to become the preferred care provider in the community by building trusting relationships through rigorous and compassionate care. The Whitefish location is seeking experienced RNs to assist the Director of Nursing with compliance, system oversight, and staff education to achieve the best outcomes for residents. The organization promotes seven core values emphasizing both individual accountability and team support in delivering quality patient care. The posted RN management position offers a regular daytime schedule (Tuesday through Saturday, 8am–4pm) with a stated hourly rate of $50–$65 based on experience, indicating a focus on attracting experienced nursing leadership familiar with CMS and Montana state long-term care regulations. However, employee reviews paint a concerning picture of workplace satisfaction. Indeed reviews show an overall rating of just 2.0 out of 5 stars based on 4 reviews, with particularly low scores for management (1.0/5), culture (1.0/5), and job security (1.0/5). Glassdoor reviews include a warning titled "Sweetwater Care (CA) - Beware! Not a good company." While some employees note positive aspects such as support from managers and time/location flexibility, the overall sentiment indicates significant areas for improvement in workplace culture and management practices.

Mission: "Transition facilities to be the preferred care provider in the community, by building trusting relationships through rigorous and compassionate care." Core values include: Open Clear Communication (simple, clear, direct, trustworthy feedback), Work Hard and Play Hard (having fun while working), We Champion Each Other (supporting and promoting each other's strengths and achievements), Provide Compassionate Care (quick but not hurried, accurate care, fulfilling promises timely), Self Starter (self accountability/reliance, optimistic), Virtuous Leadership (continuous persistent drive for improvement, acting in wisdom and order), and Work Smarter Not Harder (using available resources effectively).
