Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, and for your balanced feedback. We're thrilled that you love our culture and that you see the growth available to you and your team here at Equity, but we are sorry to hear that work/life balance is a challenge. This is an area that we are constantly thinking and talking about in an effort to improve, and we are piloting new initiatives and technology in some of our markets that we hope will help. As for more floaters, we hear that often! Keep speaking up to the leaders in your market, and we will commit to continuing to review all of our staffing models across the portfolio. Thank you again for your review, but more importantly, for the work you do each and every day for your team and residents. Keep up the great work!
