Hello, I am looking for information about the hiring process at Amerigroup in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I recently applied for a Case Manager position. I am looking for any feedback regarding the hiring process. Thank you for your responses.

Jay34 the staff were disciplined as per our company policy. One fired immediately the other suspended and written up. Both reported to the board of nursing.

So one of my CNAs, along with another CNA transferred a resident using a gait belt instead of using the sit to stand lift. The patient subsequently fell during this transfer and sustained an avulsion fracture to the patellar. I feel we should report...

I have the same issue. I just became DON of a 60 bed facility and the nurses were staying over to chart. I immediately implemented a no overtime rule and any overtime has to be approved by me. I had to do this we were over 144 hours in overtime for 2...

Congrats! !!

Reported it and immediately did a plan of correction which included transfer education with all staff members. Also change of condition education with the staff as well.

Things are coming along ok. The building has great staff! Some policies and procedures are not being followed correctly, so I am doing education with the staff. I have a great ADON and a unit manager. Some days have been better than others!

So...I accepted a DON position at a small 60 bed facility. So nervous and excited at the same time. I am nervous about the approach and how the staff will receive me. Any advice is helpful. Thanks in advance.

Sit to stand lift is care planned.

Congrats!

How disrespectful. .. Is the Administrator aware of what is going on? Undermining the DON is a no no!

Yes I love that show! Very funny and realistic. Doesn't put nurses in a bad light at all.

Mary very good approach! Especially identifying some residents on admission for restorative.

Esme thank you! I was trying to figure out how to pilot a restorative program and raise the CMI. These links helped a lot.

Thank you all for your advice! I will post updates on how things are going.

So true!

Thank you! I will follow this advice. I don't want to come on too strong with staff, I want to ease them into any changes that have to be made.

Thank you!!

Thank you very much!

See this is a prime example of how nurses are so critical of other nurses. I am not perfect and I am so excited I didn't spell something correctly. I am honestly disappointed in the comment you made. I hope you are corrected in the same manner in w...

Wow never knew nurses could be so mean. Thanks for the support. No more AllNurses for me. Thanks anyway.

It's a Facility Reportable Incident, yes its a report to the state.
