Many Aspects of the Positions are Misrepresented - Medical Laboratory Technician Lutheran Health Network Employee Review

The benefits offered are not comprehensive overall. Mental health benefits are not updated regularly and are routinely limited to religious counseling. Health and work environment benefits such as maternity leave, birth control, fertility therapy, and lactation rooms specific to women are essentially non-existent. Basic health benefits are questionable, as many of the providers have the option to bill as either Lutheran Network OR private practice. This is surprising considering the majority of staff in all areas appear to be female. The opportunity for continued education, such as obtaining certification, is only available to nursing staff or administrative staff hoping to obtain their Master's degree in order to fill a specific position within the company. Although it is legal in Indiana to work uncertified in some positions within the healthcare field it is in the best interest of employers to certify their staff. Their online presence and networking options are completely absent. These items are critical in this modern age for any successful career.
