So yeah, I feel stabbed in the back... Got terminated this morning. They said I wasn't doing enough and wasn't taking care of enough of the issues with the patients. Considering I had more than double the recommended number of patients for my specialty (they recommend 1:65 or 1:75 unless it's critical care then it's 1:30 and we had an average ( Read more... )

I'm doing much better here than I was in GA. I still get stuck with extra shifts but not nearly as bad as where I was. I'm only working 5 days a week and on average 48 hours but that is much better than 6 days a week and 56-64 hours. I'm salaried so the extra hours sucked and in GA it was because the director didn't want to have the hourly people ( Read more... )

I had an interview this Thursday via Teams. This was my second interview and it was with the CEO of the company. I think this one is mine if they can come up with a decent enough salary and benefits package. The last offer I got was the same salary I'm making now but the benefits sucked and I would have had to move someplace more expensive ( Read more... )

I decided to give the new director a chance... big mistake. I have now outlasted 2 food service directors and 3 executive chefs. I am a clinical dietitian, and this Thursday I was the PM dishwasher and the cold prep person. Instead of doing my job the current director has me in the kitchen doing stuff she refuses to do. She says she will not do the ( Read more... )

I made the eligible list for the position in West Palm Beach, it's probably acute care... I really need to get out of my current facility but I like long term care. If this position does work out I may check to see what long term care facilities are looking ( Read more... )

The new management isn't working out as well as I had hoped. I was thinking of leaving before he was hired and then thought I'd give him a chance. He is just not the kind of manager I want to work with. The new chef is great, but he's having issues with the manager too. I've had to talk him out of walking out and convinced him to at least give ( Read more... )

I am still in the Savannah, GA area. One of the reasons I decided to stay other than the cost of living here compared to NY was I didn't want to leave the rest of the team hanging. We were already understaffed and I felt that my leaving would make it horrible for the rest and the resident's would also lose out. I came back from my vacation having ( Read more... )

I have a good job here in NY. I make more than double what I made in PA, but in PA I could afford an apartment. Here I am an hour and a half north of NYC, it would take a bit less than half my income to get my own place in a neighborhood where I would feel safe. I am also having issues at work and I'm not thrilled with the lack of professionalism ( Read more... )

This week has been the best yet in this internship... it's the last three weeks and I have two left. I'm doing long term care and I really like it so far. Clinical was interesting but in long term care you gets to know their patients and can see if what you are doing helps or even makes things a bit better for the patients ( Read more... )
