I work in a LTC/Rehab facility undergoing budget cuts. They cut back the hours of the laundry personnel, the kitchen personnel, and are now requiring that the CNA's on night shift do laundry as well as take a patient load assignment.
This morning the dayshift CNA's were told that they would be doing hours in the activities department as well as their assigned patient loads.
Is this a local, regional, or nation-wide trend? Your thoughts/experiences?
