Pros

The Boss is great, she was always really personable and attuned to the employers and patients needs.

Cons

Really long shifts, and the pay was low. Too many patients to each caregiver and was constantly on my feet.

Pros

The residents deserve someone to care for them. Residents only Pro

Cons

NO training, in any position, not enough staff, when you take time off it is looked at as a negative thing even when you have earned the time off, some positions you are on call and even when your really sick they don't find people to take call so you can actually get a full nights sleep. NO compation for employees or residents when it comes to the upper management. When I watched the core values video I couldnt believe it, they aren't meeting any of the things they say they are about. They really should have an under cover boss come in and work so they can see how their employees and residents are being cared for. I woud never place a family member here and I don't recommend working here, they don't even offer sick leave and expect you to come to work sick so you can get elderly people sick. They don't have enought employees to allow you to stay home and rest.

Pros

Top management and fellow nursing staff have been mostly friendly and helpful with a team spirit approach to caregiving. When I had concerns they were responded fairly quickly and with understanding and evenhandedness.

Cons

These past three years have been more difficult due to cost cutting by eliminating almost 1/4 of the nursing staff. Also, benefits have declined while taking more out of paycheck. Annual pay increases for good reviews average 25 cents/ hr. We bear a heavy work load causing morale to decline and accidents to increase.
