What can a candidate expect during their interview process?

If the candidate is called upon for a second interview, which would preferrably be in person, the interview would consist of a tour of the facility, introductions to various employees, and an overview of the benefits package.

Most facilities stress only the positive aspects of working for their organization. What are some of the challenges faced by new employees and even experienced personnel?
We value teamwork, believing that a group of individuals dedicated to a common vision will achieve extraordinary goals. If an individual is not a team player, he/she may have a difficult time striving for our hospital's mission and vision.
