Job Description

Intermountain Health Utah Valley Hospital, located in Provo, Utah, is a well-established healthcare institution committed to providing outstanding medical services and fostering a supportive environment for both patients and employees. This hospital operates under high standards set forth by hospital regulations, the Health Department, and the Joint Commission, ensuring the safety, sanitation, and quality of care in every department. Intermountain Health is known for its dedication to employee well-being, offering a comprehensive benefits package aimed at supporting mind, body, and spirit. Even though this specific position is not benefits eligible, the hospital’s culture emphasizes connection, security, and engagement, reflecting its broader ethos of wellness and sustainability.

The role available at Intermountain Health Utah Valley Hospital is for a Housekeeping and Dishwasher position, offered PRN (pro re nata), meaning on call or as needed. The pay rate varies depending on experience, ranging from $17.00 to $21.75 per hour. This position requires flexibility in availability, including Sunday through Saturday with variable shifts. The shift assignments include early morning (7am or 8am to 4:30pm), afternoon (2pm to 10:30pm), and evening shifts (5pm to 10pm).

This role primarily involves responsibilities centered around dishwashing and general housekeeping within the Culinary Department. The individual will be tasked with maintaining the sanitary, safe, and clean conditions of the Culinary Department in adherence to hospital and regulatory standards. Key responsibilities include cleaning and sanitizing dishes, collecting patient tray carts from hospital floors, and disinfecting assigned dining and kitchen areas. Employees will use cleaning chemicals properly and safely per Joint Commission and OSHA guidelines. Additionally, the position involves operating and maintaining commercial dishwashing equipment and handling infectious waste and trash safely and in accordance with strict protocols.

Applicants for this position should possess strong cleaning and operational skills relating to food service and housekeeping equipment. Clear communication is essential as the job requires some interaction with customers and coordination with other staff members. Mastery of safety procedures, proper chemical use, and equipment operation is vital. The physical demands of the role are significant: lifting and moving heavy items, standing for long periods, and tolerating temperature extremes around dishwashing machinery. Prospective employees should have a Food Handler Permit or ServSafe certification by their first day of work and ideally bring previous experience in housekeeping or food service.

Overall, this part-time, flexible position is ideal for candidates seeking to contribute meaningfully to a hospital setting while working in a supportive and health-conscious environment. Intermountain Health values diversity, equity, and inclusion and ensures equal opportunity for qualified applicants regardless of race, gender, age, or other protected statuses. The recruitment process incorporates AI technology to enhance fairness and efficiency, but all final hiring decisions are made by human personnel. This position offers an excellent chance to be part of a respected healthcare provider dedicated to community well-being and employee wellness.
