:rotfl: I have said it for years now it really happened. I live in WA close to the Seattle area. Moved here from the Midwest about 5 years ago and I even said it back then. You can flip hamburgers for the same hourly wage and not have to put up with...

Just wondering how many other nurses there are out there that is ready to give up on LTC and change to smething else because of all the COrp. bull and crap they jam down our throats. :angryfire I was just let go from a LTC Corp of about 300+ homes a...

I have seen and used it several times in the elderly to appieite stimulant. If it is going to work for the resident it does well. Not all states will allow it useage in this manner for the elderly.

CMA is a certified medication aide. Not all states have them.

That is a great question. Is there?

ANy one heard of a Corp doing a Green light on admissions. This means you say NO to NO admits. DOesn't matter what their payor source or condition is. Let alone what the staff is for the buildings. I have never worked for a LTC before who does not al...

It depends on which type of procdure they had. Plus why do they need nursing home care and not at home with home health. You should be able to get something from the center who did the surgery. I am sorry I did not understand your first posting as in...

I did leave they fired me. Which was the best thing as I worried 24/7 about the resident and staff as well as lic. It is a sad case when you are forced to take residents who you can not provide the care for as there is not enough staff. Of course you...

Of course it is after the resident has arrived. Will the bed fit through the room door. Let me guess they are medicaid as well. As well, they will be on the call light 24/7 wanting every thing done for them and NOW.

This is in all states this company is in not isolated to one state. It is a Corp policy.

Iam not sure how to PM. Your right. With doesn't matter if we can meet the residents needs. Little alone dose the staffing matter. Just say yes! It is crazy... I am just waiting to see who gets a lawsuit first and where will those people be that are ...

Yes I agree. The releace of stress has been wounderful. Still worry about the good people left behind, but I am sure they will get around to them also. In a years time the new VP has either fired or asked to resign 13 people out of 20. Guess the Moth...

This Corp owns 350+ LTC across the US. I use to work for them until the fired me on 12-29. THey are firing people right and left cause they do not agree with this admission process. It is scarey and so uneithcal. 60% of the time LN and NAC do not eve...

Shelton, is a good town. I have lived here for two years.I moved to WA almost 5 years ago from the midwest. I first lived in the Seattle area and then moved down to Cetraila. My sig-other is from Shelton. I like it hear as it is kinda of in the middl...

Great comment donmomofnine. You said a LOT in few short words.

As I stated it is all for the Corp. and not for the little employees. I work just above you in the WA. It is so scarey to read about these things and then end-up being part of what your reading about. Corp are what back and support our goverment. It...

It just seems like Corp. can make up the rules as they go. They do wounder why they can not keep nurses around. You are not worth less. In your heart and the halo over your head is gold. What Company is this. Sounds like the same company that just le...

I am looking for a web site that has really good pictures of staging. I am going to be doing training with LN

I liked the way it read. With a little change you could have measurable goals with in the content. The format you use to put a POC into is up to you. The only thing the Fedral regulattion state is a problem, goal, and interventions and evaluation. I ...

WOW...then people wounder why no one wants to work LTC. I know that I have days I ask myself WHY? Did you get to see this blister? Was truly a burn blister or pressure? HAve you asked to see your employee file? You have a right to inspect your file. ...

I moved here from the Midwest almost 4 years ago and I am shocked at the LTC survey system in this state. I have worked LTC for 20 + years in several different states and I have never been witness to such disregard for common respect and courtesy. Do...
