Pros

My direct managers were decent, the hospital is newer and has decent supplies. The hospital is kept clean. Pay is low but still competitive.

Cons

We were chronically short staffed, and management didn't seem to care if we or our patients were in danger. Our CNO bragged about the hospital spending millions lobbying against safe staffing laws in Colorado. Yikes. I had so many close calls and near misses I bought private liability insurance. You will likely not get any kind of decent raises either. It has gotten so much worse since intermountain acquired this hospital.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review. At Intermountain Health, we’re always working to keep communication open and meaningful across all levels of the organization. We’ve built in several ways for caregivers and leaders to stay connected and share feedback, like 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins during onboarding, regular team huddles, and quarterly meetings. These touchpoints are designed to create space for real conversations and collaboration. Additionally, we know that staffing challenges continue to impact healthcare across the country, and we’re actively working on creative, long-term solutions here at Intermountain. From offering remote and hybrid roles where possible, to investing in paid training programs, tuition support, and apprenticeships, we’re focused on building a strong, sustainable workforce. We’re also partnering with schools and community organizations to help grow the next generation of healthcare professionals. At the same time, we’re putting real energy into retention, because we know how important it is to support and keep the incredible caregivers we already have. Your feedback helps us stay focused on what matters most, and we’ll be sharing it with our teams.
