How does your facility deal with frequent call in's?
Seems like we have no extra staff to call in. I think everyone must get a phone call at least once a week asking them to work extra. Some people just don't show for part or all of their shift, then say they were confused by the schedule? I saw this kind of behavior when I worked retail (people went for lunch and never came back)
(one one left for three weeks then showed up wanting to know why he wasn't on the schedule.)
Anyway, what's up with healthcare these days, why do we have no PRN staff anymore?
I keep hearing how people want and need jobs, but I guess where I work, it's better to not work here!
Anyone else dealing with this stuff and any ideas to make people want to show up and pull together and actually kind of enjoy work, even though we are really busy?
