What reviewers appreciate

  • Formal Employee Shared Behaviors Compact emphasizing mutual respect, teamwork, and communication between leadership and staff
  • Explicit commitment to diversity, inclusion, and a bully-free work environment with education and open dialogue

  • As part of a large merged health system (BJC Health), nurses may face bureaucratic complexity associated with large-scale organizational integration
