Alberta Health Services

Have you looked at the job board? All those vacancies we had a couple of weeks ago just went POOF! Couple that with the OT ban and it looks like we'll all be working for two. I wanna know what happened to that $27 BILLION surplus we had six short months ago. Eddie Scissorhands, Rotten Ronnie and "Duck-It" Duckett are really doing a number on us.

I saw this thread, so just out of curiosity, I went to our health region's job posting board. Over the last year or so I have checked in there periodically to see what positions were available for LPNs. Generally for the region there were about 15-20 positions open with varying hours from full to part time.

Last night when I checked, there were two. Two positions. Both of them in tiny little towns about 1.5 hours from the major center here, Grande Prairie.

What happened here? I start the full-time LPN program in September, and I hope by the time I'm finished those positions return!!

It's scary to me to see how quickly things changed.

yeah I wonder where all these positions went. Lotta my grad class are jobless. Its funny to see UNE's having positions compared to GN's. Not liking this new cuts and new board of AHS

Sorry, I've been trying to figure it out, but what is a "UNE"?

friends i know had interview 2 weeks ago and now are on hold. Poor guys Not good at all, with all them looking at things closely is BS. Guess they don't want to spend extra on benefits. Really don't like this new AHS
