At St. Joseph Hospital, our values-based employees view their jobs not simply as careers but also as callings. That's one of the reasons why we were the first Catholic hospital in the state of California to receive Magnet designation and why we were named by the Gallup Organization as one of America's best workplaces.
But don't listen to us, read below to see what our employees have to say about their careers at St. Joseph Hospital.

"My job at St. Joseph Hospital is so rewarding. It gives me security and stability. I'm so grateful to be able to interact with people and to make a difference in a child's, in a husband's, in a wife's ... in a family's life. I love St. Joseph Hospital. They encourage growth from within. You can count on each employee here. Everyone supports each other, which fosters a really healthy, strong work environment."

 Kim Rossillo, RN
Nurse Manager |
"I think that nursing is probably one of the most difficult and rewarding jobs that you could have. And I don't think nursing can be taught in textbooks or in a classroom. Nursing is a calling and it has impacted my life and who I am. The feelings of pride and thankfulness I have for St. Joseph Hospital, my unit and fellow staff members are indescribable. The emotions are so big and the feelings are so strong. I simply cannot put them into words. It's all so much bigger than my voice."

"St. Joseph Hospital is a great place to work because we provide a great variety of clinical services. A new graduate or an experienced RN has numerous departments to choose from. In addition, St. Joseph Hospital has different councils and committees that give nurses the power to make changes in professional practice and work environment. The hospital also provides exciting leadership development opportunities. Most importantly, at St. Joseph Hospital we work as a team, helping each other and standing by each other every step of the way."

"St. Joseph Hospital is a great place to work because everyone pitches in where they’re needed…each employee puts forth equal effort and is here because they want to be here. It’s their calling to help others in ways they may be unable to help themselves.
Each patient I encounter and am able to help makes me feel blessed. It keeps me coming into work each day, knowing I'm here to make a difference in someone’s life. This career keeps me humble because no matter how difficult something is that I'm dealing with personally, at least I have my health. The patients I work with are just grateful to be alive. Their smiles are quite encouraging and make coming to work each day worthwhile."

Clinical Lab Scientist

"I'm passionate about the impact my career can have on helping save lives. I was raised by my grandmother and felt that it would make her proud to see me helping others. She brags to her friends about my career as a CLS! I wake up every day excited to go to work because I feel that I contribute to the diagnosis that help physicians administer the right treatment to cure patients."

"St. Joseph Hospital is a great place to work because of the teamwork that exists within. I have worked at other facilities before and I have never seen teamwork practiced as much as they do here. You can always rely on someone to give you a helping hand." |
