Advice to Management

Get more help and pay them better if you want quality workers

Pros

Gets your foot in the door as they'll hire entry lvl and pay for your exam if you pass it.

Cons

For a training hospital the training is a joke. Understaffed because pay is low and people's attitudes are poor. Chase away hard workers because there is no accountability for doing things not to standard. Honestly I'm surprised there haven't been more inquiries with infection control. No one cares about patient safety.

Advice to Management

Get someone actually certified to run the department. Start doing monthly in services. Train people using the actual information that is on the exams and hold people accountable.

Pros

Good pay Friendly coworkers Up to date Tablet documentation

Cons

Anywhere from 2-5 emails daily regarding numbers and scores that we must reach and a revolving list of things we must begin doing/saying, change or discontinue. Patients seems to be not much more than a survey score.

Advice to Management

Let’s start talking about patients as people and less as a ‘good survey potential’. Also, the turnover rate might not be so high if schedules we’re planned with location and driving distances in mind. A full schedule with 2-3 hours of driving only means even more charting once we’re home.
