Svantaggi
PRE-COVID Where do I start?... The number 1 thing is the pay is not proportionate to what is expected of our roles, nor is it in-line with the cost-of-living in this area. Even with yearly raises (if your manager remembers to give you a review on time) it can't keep up, they are not decent enough. Nursing and clinical staff have fought for wages for years now, resulting in CNA union, without any improvement. In fact, Barton retaliated and started making the staff take on MORE work and keeps them short-staffed. They also combined floors. So now ONE nurse has a workload that includes patients located on both sides of opposite floors. Very frustrating for them, clinical staff, and the patients. Patients constantly complain about poor quality of service, and our "patient falls" have increased. 2. Our hardest working people, EVS and kitchen, are mandatory working 6 days a week and many of those staff members have stated that their quality-of-life in the role is diminishing. Almost all are minorities in the Latino community. NOTED: ZERO minorities work at the executive level, which makes me wonder if they even have our minority workers' best interests. EVS manager is ruthless, has insane expectations, gives poor yearly reviews, and does not help staff when short. Kitchen manager at least works and helps cover for his staff. 3. Greedy organization. Constant short-staffed with zero help from executives. Little help from managers, who just tack on more work for everyone. CEO makes about $1 million/year while everyone else can't even afford to pay RENT 4. Barton has this facade as a great, small-town community hospital, but in 2019 Barton Net income $29 million and only provided 1.8 million in charity care for the community, which is only 1.37%. Post-COVID 5. We got a lame-a** lunchbox as our "Employee Appreciation" for working during the pandemic.
