Patience are top priority
Patient Service Associate (EYE Clinic) (Former Employee) – Simei – April 26, 2019
It was tiring as we are the front-line of Healthcare. Our image really play apart in making patients having pleasant and smooth journey throughout their visit to the doctor. Therefore, serving right with smile and patience is very important.
Pros
Free lunches during some events
Cons
Long day of standing and attending to patient's enquiries
Friendly staff and clean environment
Dietetics Assistant (Former Employee) – Simei – April 23, 2019
I held a typical 8.30am to 5.30pm job. It involved working with food service staff and dietitians to ensure that the inpatient meals served are the heartiest. Through my stint with CGH, I've learnt about the food service sector, as well as being a patient-centric service provider. The nature of the workplace is fast-paced but staff are generally positive and friendly towards one another, even outside the department. The hardest part of the job was to ensure 100% patient satisfaction with the meals provided, as the flavour and presentation of food is highly subjective. What I look forward to most at work was meeting my colleagues as they are pleasant, friendly and supportive, which makes any hard day at work better.
Fun work place

Senior Respiratory Therapist (Former Employee) – Singapore – January 17, 2019
The hospital gives emphasis on work life balance. Care for the patient is provided in a multidisciplinary approach. There is trust and confidence in each member on the way they do their job. Increase in salary is based on merit and how well a employee functions in relation to his/her line of work.The institution also focuses on employee health by having an annual health screening. Flu shots was also given free during coldest period of the year. Choices of food are abundant with each choices providing information on calorie level. Hardest part of the job is when there are patient in respiratory isolation like H1N1, MERSCoV, where in isolation equipment must be worn and removed in a guided manner to avoid spread of viruses. The fun part is the opportunity to travel to learn during conferences.
Pros
Annual Leave are given in advance
Cons
no overtime

REGISTERED NURSE (Former Employee) – Singapore – August 5, 2018
The day starts with a huddle wherein senior nurses give report to all the incoming staff to give a brief situation of the ward, unexpected and important things that happened in their shift will be discussed. Assessment of each patient occurs followed by individual passing of patient's report. The most amusing part of experience is how all the staff are willing to help each other to render the best patient care. It has been the culture to help and wait for the staff to finish the routine task before going home. The hardest part is meeting the standard of delivering the best patient care by keeping the patients' safety.
Pros
Discounted meals, choice of date for Annual leave
Cons
Unpaid overtime
think twice

Assistant Manager (Current Employee) – Tampines – June 12, 2018
Decision making is based on seniority. Senior management tries to engage the ground level but the methods used are ineffective. Middle management keeps information from being disseminated.
Staff welfare is heavily emphasize with words.

Kanpong spirit within the organisation
Corporate (Current Employee) – Simei – April 11, 2018
CGH has a unique culture. It prides itself for its kampung spirit, where staff across the public healthcare institution are collegial towards each other.
Pros
Work-life balance
Management needs to be improved
Senior Manager (Current Employee) – Tampines Plaza – April 5, 2018
Changes within the healthcare sector are numerous and many times, extremely short frame is given to complete a task. When projects go well, management takes the credit. When projects turn sour, blame game is activated and the middle level to junior staff. Favoritism is rampant.
Pros
Work place quite close to home
Cons
Poor management
