Pros
Kindred is a good place to start a new career. The supervisors/charge nurses are very approachable for questions and learning. The supervisors/charge nurses are good at looking out for the welfare of their staff. They are always ready to teach and help out.
Cons
While the supervisors/charge nurses are wonderful, management is a different story. Concerns and needs by staffs are blatantly ignored. In fact, these concerns are met bythe usual response “well, you should feel lucky that you have a job. If you’re not happy with it, the door is wide open.” There is no confidentiality. If a staff member has done something wrong, the rest of the staffs will learn about the impending trouble and reperscussions first before the involved staff member. Threats of call-in jeopardy are always brought up even if an employee had only 2 call-ins for the last year and a half. Management are always making or changing new policies to suit their needs.
