Why Anderson Hospital Nursing?

At Anderson Hospital, our nurses are the heart of our care. Here’s why nurses love working with us:

  • Culture of Compassion: From our leadership to our staff, we value compassion and respect in every interaction.
  • Career Growth: We provide ample opportunities for professional development and continuing education.
  • Collaborative Environment: Work alongside a team that values communication, support, and collaboration.
  • Patient-Centered Care: You’ll be part of an organization that places patient well-being at the forefront of everything we do.

But don’t just take our word for it—hear directly from the nurses who work here.

  • “Anderson offers an RN to BSN program through SIUE that I am so thankful to benefit from. Anderson is paying 100% of my tuition… As a result, I have been able to balance being a full-time nurse, a student, and home life without struggling. I am appreciative of the opportunities being a nurse at Anderson has provided me, and proud to serve my community at a community hospital.”

    - Kelsey Tweedy, RN

  • “Accepting my RN position on the labor and delivery unit was the easiest decision I have made in my life. Having my dream job right out of school is such a blessing. Our unit represents a family that people show up for each other when they are in need, not only on the job, but personally as well… I like the community aspect of Anderson, and I have made so many important connections…”

    - Maddy Davis, RN

  • “Anderson offers opportunities for growth and moving up the ladder within the facility. Anderson promotes from within when possible, which I believe is why it is different from many large facilities. Our executive positions and manager positions are filled by people who have walked in their employees’ shoes, who have not forgotten how hard the work is and where they came from… For me, Anderson is HOME!”

    - Mary Cathy Harris, RN

  • “I have been here for 4 years now, and I really enjoy the people I work with and the short commute to and from work. It’s nice to be a part of the team here, and that’s how I feel—like part of a team. I left a much bigger hospital in the St. Louis area and never felt that connection.”

    - Ron Stout, RN

  • “From my first interview to now, working here 18 months, I feel like it's a perfect fit. I chose Anderson Hospital because of the teamwork I saw when I toured and interviewed here. The staff genuinely support each other, and the environment feels collaborative and positive… I enjoy being part of a TEAM where communication and respect are priorities. It feels like "family," and that is wonderful.”

    - Julie Rothe, RN

  • “I chose Anderson because I had worked at bigger hospitals in St. Louis, but I made the change because this was a lot closer to home. I choose to stay at Anderson because it feels like a tight-knit community, and I feel like I know everybody and am known by everybody.”

    - Kyle Wood, RN

  • “I chose Anderson because of the small-town feel and ability to work in my own community. I stay because I trust Anderson. Having joined right on the cusp of a global pandemic, there was never a time they did not do everything possible to educate, equip, support, and retain their staff, even during very uncertain times, and every day since then. I love my coworkers, and it just feels like home.”

    - Chelsea Weber, RN

  • “I researched Anderson Hospital and noticed it was a smaller, independently owned hospital. I did not want to feel like another number on a large corporation roster. I am so glad I chose Anderson Hospital because it has become family, and I could not imagine working anywhere else.”

    - Whitney Spencer, RN

  • “Anderson Hospital’s dedication to professionalism, growth through ongoing training, funding the AND to BSN program, encouragement to take on new responsibilities, and knowing the hospital prioritizes both patient outcomes and the development of staff makes me proud to work here every day… Anderson aligns with my values, challenges me to grow, and gives me the chance to give back to the community we serve.”

    - Rachel Schwegel, RN

  • “My decision to choose Anderson was influenced by its presence in my hometown community. As a nurse with 18 years of experience, having worked in other hospitals, Anderson has become a familial environment. I feel valued and supported in sharing my accumulated knowledge and expertise.”

    - Deyona Kunselman, RN

  • “I am very grateful to expand my nursing skills and learn more each and every day. I have helped teach nursing students and even made many relationships with patients and family members. I love my job and my coworkers. I could not do my job without my coworkers. They are my second family. Thank you, Anderson, for helping me grow not only as a nurse but as a person.”

    - Krisin Short, RN

  • “I applied both on this side of the river and in St. Louis, but with two children in school and several activities, I was hoping to find something local. I ended up accepting a position in the Cardiopulmonary Rehab department here, and it has been the perfect fit for me as well as my family…  I truly love connecting with my patients [and] encouraging them to make healthy lifestyle changes.”

    - Tara Gahr, RN

  • “I've worked at Anderson for over 8 years. I started here as a new grad and have worked as a Staff RN, Charge RN, and I now serve as the Infection Prevention Manager for Anderson Healthcare. Anderson has provided me with opportunities for continuous learning and career advancement.”

    - Kaitlin Blumberg, RN
