Behavioral Management Sitter - Behavioral Management Sitter Novant Health Employee Review

In general: Long days (7AM - 7PM); Too much down time (for my preference); Employees tend to report issues that they find with you to supervisors rather than bringing the issue up directly with you; On that same note, employees talk behind your back and report you to managers in order to further themselves; As Behavioral Management Sitter: Low wages (10/hr) despite level of responsibility (i.e. suicide prevention); Responsibilities and what you're allowed to do is unclear and not fully explained; Nurses, doctors and other staff members do not take your position too seriously yet are quick to put the blame on you when there is a incident with the patient(s) that you sit with; If you want to make half-decent salary, 60/hr a week is required (in order to gain overtime pay); Literally no room for advancement without further schooling; You spend a lot of time sitting while the patient sleeps/watches television; Nursing team mostly ignores you and instead engages with other staff members of "respectable positions", except for when your patient acts disruptive/hostile; You are not given uniform/scrubs to wear, which makes the position feel less official in comparison to almost every other employee (including the "patient transport team", who wear yellow scrubs) - this depends on your feelings towards uniforms, though. Managers are quick to scrutinize you for trivial mistakes, which gives the feeling that your job lacks security; Managers get upset over you being literally one minute late to clocking in (even though you are getting up before the sun does) and will insist on having a meeting with you in order to "discuss issues" over it. Wish I was kidding on this one.
