Is ShiftKey safe?
1
I signed an offer letter today to get $47 an hour as a staff RN at an ambulatory multispecialty clinic. I’m still unsure since I’m so burnt out from nursing in general, also past horrible experiences in every job I’ve had. If I find a remote role that pays $40-$41 hourly, but I already signed this offer letter elsewhere, will this place blacklist me from future roles? It’s a very big company and I don’t want to get blacklisted. Please any advice is appreciated. I just don’t know what to do.
AITAH? I am a program manager over several area group homes for people with disabilities. I have worked here for several years and have always taken a 2 week vacation every February with my family as we go out of the country, my boss was always just fine with this as my PTO request was put in a year in advance. My manager ended up leaving and was replaced, and the new manager said they will no longer approve PTO over 7 days because "2 weeks is too long". I am leaving because of this.
I saw a TikTok about a nurse who started a new job and the person who was supposed to train her wasn’t there and the other nurses completely ignored her and were incredibly rude. She ended up leaving a few hours into the day because of how they were treating her. I can’t stop thinking about it because I had a similar experience early in my career but did not stand up for myself the way she did. What would you have done in that situation?
I guess it's about as safe as these other workplace marketplace platforms out here. Our facility relied on ShiftKey during staffing droughts. I'd recommend using it only if you want to work at long-term and post-acute healthcare facilities.
I’m thinking of doing long-term, the facilities “near me” offer around $40/hr which is double what I’m making now at my facility. It makes me nervous because are they on the brink of closing to be offering that much? Is my mental health more important?
ShiftKey just partnered with OnShift workforce management software to launch schedule automation marketplace integration. The new integration was able to pull off an 83% decrease in unfilled shifts. The new tool is called SAMI.
Are you thinking of using it yourself or are you looking to staff using ShiftKey? I know a peer who prefers to select the shifts and facilities she likes and she loves the flexibility.
For myself, I’ve been at my current facility for two years now and it’s just become too toxic. It just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. I don’t know if worths stepping out of my comfort zone and choosing my own hours.
They have a privacy policy in place and I haven't heard any mishaps happenings. All i have heard is great reviews about Shiftkey
I’ve wondered the same question. They require a lot of tests and credentials that the other apps don’t. So do they have good shifts?
It depends on how you describe good. I’ve gone to facility that I had a great experience and then the other, I was the only nurse in the whole building and couldn’t get ahold of the administrator.
