I have read the posts on this topic to help make a decision about a SNF/LTC job offer........
Here are the issues I see as discussed: (negatives)
Understaffed
Under paid (my office is 23 and I am an RN)
Team dysfunction
Med pass being overwhelming
Manager dysfunction and lack of support
Family member issues
CNAs angry and nurses and vice versa-finger pointing at each other
On call
Corporate greed
Here are the issues I see as discussed: (positives)
A few people said it was very rewarding
Are these accurate observations and does anyone care to comment? LTC/subacute would be a new venue for me and I sincerely would appreciate experienced nurses who have worked in this type of roll.
Thanks,
