works at 

United Health Services

For some background, I graduated with my BS in psychology in 2022 and have worked as a Pre-K teacher for almost 5 years (2017-2021), a mental health technician for 1 year and now I’m a case manager. I told myself I’d obtain a Masters in clinical counseling & become an LPC , but I’m more interested in going to medical school (which was my initial plan anyway). Is it less reputable to do medical school online? I don’t think I’d be able to do much of anything in person with a full time job.

    Toxic and unsafe outpatient programs

    May 24, 2023 - Licensed Mental Health Therapist in Concord, CA
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Easy parking, some good hearted employees. Rewarding work.

    Cons

    Toxic, harassing, and incompetent management. Many employees reported to management and HR and nothing has changed. Majority of employees have left. Now they have hired non-licensed staff. New supervisor was the only candidate, got negative feedback, and was still promoted. Management just wants to fill the programs even if patients aren’t a good fit. Caseloads are too big. Not enough staffing to ensure patient and employee safety. All of this leads to huge turnover and poor patient outcomes, including a COVID spread, patients using substances on site, patients running into the busy street, and a suicide attempt on site. Shame on JM! Before COVID, there were no wait lists and patients were crammed into our rooms. Caseloads were too high. During COVID we didn’t have staff to wipe down surfaces regularly. We later learned the outpatient programs should’ve been shut down and gone remote like every other program in the country.

    Always understaffed and management doesn’t care

    May 16, 2023 - PCT/CNA in Walnut Creek, CA
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Great coworkers and decent pay

    Cons

    We’re always understaffed. Company does not care about CNA’s the hardest workers and the heart of the company. They will not hire new staff or even registry to cover the shortages. They will work you until you fall apart and will not even replace you. Just more shortages. Less staff equals more problems with patient safety and overall patient satisfaction.
