4-star
overall, an enjoyable people to work with and learned lot of things from them

I would help set up signage, prepare the area for clients to register, oversee the recovery area and help people with mobility and other special needs.I learned about the importance of getting immunized not just for the flu but for other illnesses ,too. The management was very helpful and understanding. Sometimes there were co workers that were not – more... the easiest to work with. That would have been the hardest part of the job. The most enjoyable part of the job was to work with clients and in the recovery area we were encouraged to talk to them and make sure they were feeling alright. – less

AHS has a lot of opportunities, but the senior leadership team has to redirect their focus to retain skilled and highly qualified staff. The vision has been lost through the forced attrition. When formed the organization had a powerful vision and plan, and as that brilliant group of leaders has been forced out through the inability to move forward on – more... their initatives, the entire organization and subsequently the health of Albertans and the Health System have suffered irrevocably.
I love the field and the people, but the senior leadership have no clue. – less

I started working in Royal Alex hospital on May and I find the job so easy maybe because the people I work with are helpful and cheerful. It makes the job very light and easy. I also like the hours of operation where I don't need to get up so early ad stay at work so late. The most enjoyable part of the work is when you learn new things but not really – more... stressful because the supervisors and managers are always there to help you all the way until you learn the new skill. – less
