KVC Health Systems reviews

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We're so glad that you are experiencing good support from your supervisor and job flexibility. Shadowing front line staff is a great idea. Some of our departments have done that recently, such as the Business Information Technology team, seeking to learn how we can streamline processes and make documentation easier through mobile apps. Many of our top leaders are on the front lines with staff regularly. This past weekend, a Vice President brought breakfast and Easter baskets to children and teens waiting to be matched with foster families and the staff caring for them. Your review doesn't list your location or department, but assuming that you are on our largest team (KVC Kansas), we have a good sense of some of the real issues: a 39% increase in the number of children in foster care in the last 5 years, fewer safe placement options for children, and ongoing workforce challenges causing high caseloads and turnover. We released an infographic explaining the causes of these challenges and how we are partnering with others to solve them. Check it out at http://www.kvckansas.org/childwelfareinfographic Our first priority is to be fully staffed so we can provide high-quality, effective services to children and families. As a current employee, we invite you and your supervisor to make sure you're sharing your ideas with other leaders in your area. We are committed to continuous improvement and want to hear from you.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your experience. We’re glad to hear that you liked the work you were doing and found it rewarding. We’re committed to providing ongoing and the latest training to all employees as well as making KVC a great place to work. One way we’re doing that is by addressing the areas you mentioned. We are aware that employees have asked for more communication and support from the leadership team. We have hosted quarterly leadership development meetings for all supervisors to learn how to improve their management styles and offer more support to staff, initiated an employee newsletter to share news more frequently, offered Town Hall meetings to share updates and address questions from all staff, and have launched an employee rewards program to recognize and reward all employees. We’re focused on improving those areas and making sure each employee feels supported and valued at KVC. Thank you for your review and best wishes in your future!
