Changing my mind on not working there was heartbreaking because I really thought I was gonna be happy, I even waited 2 weeks for the opening. Finally got hired on 9/17 for night shift. The DSD had me come in for orientation the next morning then an extra 5 days night shift, which is ridiculous because the facility is small and I have 10yrs experience. Even worse the payroll lady expected me remember an old user name & password from my last job in order to be in the system to get paid. She told me to call a number if I can’t remember, which is something she should’ve been doing.So by not having such a comfortable experience orientating after 3 days, I decided I was no longer interested. I asked the DSD was I still getting paid for my 3 day orientation, she said did I receive a letter from payroll, I said yeah but when I clicked on it, it said the invite was expired. Then she said if u didn’t accept then u not getting paid. I said that’s crazy because I was putting my orientation hours on papers which u signed. She said I can’t help u and payroll lady on vacation. So they didn’t even pay for orientation, if I would’ve did the 5 days, it would’ve been for nothing.
They ordered medical product from our company in mid February for $147. We are still unpaid four months later. All they do is give us a run-around. Are they not paying their other bills. Are they in financial distress? The administrator doesn’t have voice mail. We sell to other facilities in the area that pay just fine. I recommend anyone with a facility member to place in a care facility to chose a different one.
Not good
I’m very sad at the care this facility provides. The nurses don’t seem to be use to family members asking questions or making requests. Too many times our family member was neglected by not having his bandages, clothes or bedding changed. They forgot to brush his teeth and he developed bed sores and a bad eye infection. The nurses roll their eyes when we ask for assistance and the case worker, Linda, is unprofessional; she verbally attacked us. Please find another facility.
