This place is rife with autocrats and cliques whom thrive on gossip, lies and nepotism, management, employees and medical staff all stalk the halls trading gossip about patients and staff alike and expertly bullying staff by playing victim themselves, therefore, effectively turning their own anti bullying processes on it’s head. Management are either complicit about this or are extremely dim witted, as they still say they don’t know what to do about fixing this toxic culture when the answer is obvious. The result is an extremely toxic culture and great knowledge gaps due to a lot of skilled staff leaving. Although a new hospital is being built the culture is becoming worse.
Hope DHHS steps in soon and drains the swamp.

1. Shepparton community is very friendly and very nice place to live in and it’s only 2 hours away from Melbourne
2. The hospital work environment is very friendly and very supportive at the social level
3. It’s very busy ED, with Staff shortage
4. A lot of learning  opportunities 
5. The consultant support is good but not excellent due to lack of enough consultants 
6. If you’re a doctor who’s interested in Emergency medicine, it’s a very good place to start until you join a training program regardless which speciality you gonna choose. 
7. It’s an excellent place for IMGs (Less racism and more support) 
8. You will never regret working there :)

Working in ICU make you to be ready to look after wide variety of patients We looking after acutely ill, high dependency and coronary care patients.
I learnt to work as a team played and as an independent practitioner.

Our unit manager very supportive and always listens to our concerns

Our Unit always welcomes new nurses and supports students during placements.

The hardest part of job is night duty

The most enjoyable part of job is satisfaction when critically ill patient recovers from illness and moves to the ward. The other enjoyable part of my job is social interaction with my work mates.

Worst work place I ever have had the misfortune to work at.  The environment is bullying and micro management is rife.
If you are a nurse working in the ‘community’ programs don’t expect any nursing support, and don’t expect that it will be community focussed.  The bullies are rewarded and promoted and the bullied are expected to leave quietly.  And the bullying will continue after you leave with them trying to sully your reputation and experience.  The team atmosphere is non existent in the community programs and is task orientated, there is no person centered care.  Worst toxic culture I have ever experienced.  

I find the work of caring for patients and helping others to be very rewarding. I appreciate the great team environment and supportive co-workers, as well as the hands-on learning opportunities and chance to gain experience in the role.
There are some minor issues which I feel aren't worth mentioning, as overall I am happy working at GVH in my current role.

Do not work for this organization!
Poor communication 
Managenent has total lack of respect and support for clinical staff.
Emotional bullying
Lack of team inclusion
More interested in ticking boxes looking good on paper than holistic care
Tightening the purse strings in regard to recruiting good staff on one hand but wasting money with poor productivity and nepotism on the other.

Awful employer with a culture of bullying, intimidation and management incompetence. My review would mirror the earlier ones relating to a toxic culture of bullying and nepitism... which stems from upper level management and executives who support employees only if they 'agree' with them. Raise your hand and you'll go through the HR process.

Been a great deal of negative media attention exposing poor culture over 2016. The management exhibits a lack of value toward staff, with Executive management appearing most concerned with economics. Mass exodus in mental health  dept. which would appear to support the media's claims.

Since change of higher management last year there were significant negative change in culture which led to multiple resignations of staff including experienced local employees. Toxic and negative place to work. Clinicians feel overworked,  unsupported. Bullying practice. Management doesn't care about staff wellbeing

My review would mirror the earlier ones relating to a toxic culture of bullying and nepitism... which stems from upper level management and executives who support employees only if they 'agree' with them. Raise your hand and you'll get a bullet.
