Hi all........I need some advise. I started a job at an assisted living facility about 2months ago. When I interviewed for the job, my supervisor told me, I can't guaruntee you will be out on time every day. I said ok..........I don't mind helping out. Well, I want you to know that in 2 months, I have gotten out on time twice. It is very busy and my job consists of anything they want me to do. Their seems to be no end to the work. I have been an LPN for 23yrs and I have never had a job where I could not finish my work by the end of the day. I work 10-12 hours a day, by the way I am salary, no overtime, and am considered management. My title is LPN/ Supervisor. Their is never enough time to have a break or lunch, in fact if I do take a lunch it is frowned upon. I come home exhausted every day. They need to hire another RN, which they have been trying to do for quite a while., but it never happens, supposedly my work will decrease when they do. When I was hired my supervisor told me that my position was newly created. Wrong, the last 4 LPN's left due to too much work, and overwhelming demands. I do enjoy the place, the residents are nice, the chha's for the most part who work there are good people. But I am so tired all the time. It is almost the end of the month and that means new pages for the MAR's. The other LPN, who works evenings and I are responsible for checking them all before we put them in. We have close to 130 residents. That is alot of pages...some residents are on 25 to 30 meds a piece. Their is no time to do this at work so I have been bringing them home after working 10 or more hours, and checking pages til I fall asleep. I have tried in everyway possible to try and say that the workload is overwhelming and the answer I get is, we all have alot of work to do, you can't get any sympathy from me. Also it seems that everyday a new things will come up and we get told, that is part of your job:eek: . What would you do?
