Profits over people - Recensione dipendente - RN Charge Nurse presso Signature HealthCARE

Not only has the management changed 6+ times in the last year, but they seem to have a talent for hiring and promoting the most under qualified, obnoxious, and lousiest managers they can find. The entire staff becomes demoralized by the dehumanizing attitudes of their supervisors. Also, this company is the WORST I have ever seen for putting profits above people. Absolutely bare bones staffing that works their employees to the breaking point, extreme budget cuts that have the residents going without basic care items such as incontinence cleansing wipes, and purposely short ordering supplies to save money. Regularly run out of garbage bags, paper towels, certain wound care dressings, nutritional supplemental shakes that are ordered by the doctor, etc. There has been more than one weekend when staff has bought toilet paper, straws, cups, coffee, soap, and razors for the residents. Nevermind having to bring in your own toilet paper. They charge employees $3 a meal for some of the worst school cafeteria reject food, but if you are stuck working 16 hours unexpectedly, it might be your only option. Budget cuts to the dietary program allow for each resident to have less than $5 a day spent on their food. Consequently people that pay over $7000 a month to live in their facilities are told that they can't have an 8 Oz off brand soda pop because it's a "luxury". Snacks, on the chance that they were bought that week, consist of off brand peanut butter crackers and stale potato chips thrown into sandwich baggies. The food served at meals has become so repulsive that between the unappetizing smell, appearance, and taste, many elders refuse to eat it. They either go without, begging for something else, or if it's available they might be able to get a sandwich. Some people are now living on cheap, gray processed turkey on white bread for lunch and dinner every day. It is horrifying. I'm leaving as soon as I find another job.
