unprofessional management & Lazy staffs - Resident Assistant (RA) Spectrum Retirement Employee Review

The management team talks poorly about their workers especially the executive director, manger of Assisted living, and manager of memory care. They do meeting outside of work and discuss about how bad their workers are for not wanting to pick up shifts. They aren’t interactive or willing to build a relationship with the other staffs. Not even a goodbye before they leave their shift or a heads up about certain news. The manager of memory care is very rude and disrespectful to his employees. If you do not pick up, he will be angry and expect you to do things that aren’t part of your job. RAs in that unit is often working doubles each day because he doesn’t want to come in and help for a whole shift. Most of them are very intimidated and scared of him. If an employee mentions a reoccurring problem, they still will not fix the situation. Laundry’s are often left in the washer for days, residents won’t get their showers, caregivers will go on break during busy hours, and they will often hide in the staircase. Be prepared to work not only your job but someone else’s who most likely is getting paid better than you. Overnight staff sleeps in rooms that are meant for tours or the exercise room. They do not change residents at night, you will often find residents heavily soaked. If it is not in your care plan, you will get charge for ANY assistance such as combing their hair. You’re getting charged $5 for food delivered or picked up. Ontop of paying for the meal plan, you’re also paying for whatever food you order each day (be wise on which item you pick!) There is always problem with supplies, no one seems to be organizing or keeping track of it. There are cases where residents will have a fall because some RAs aren’t using gait belts or leaving them on the toilet.
