Survey Rant

Specialties LTC Directors

I work in a small building, my census is under 60, and I have 2 of the most INCOMPETANT jerks as surveyors. One of them wants to give me MULTIPLE tags because my pharmacy wrote the wrong concentration of lactobacillus on our med sheets! The dose the patients are getting matches the original order, no harm has been done, and she wants to tag me for 4 categories on it! Are you freaking kidding me?! And I just found out that a complete dump down the street from us that's over crowded, produces more in house acquired pressure sores than you can imagine got DEFICIENCY FREE!!!!! ***!? Oh yeah, and they will be there FOR A WEEK!

And this is one of the reasons I no longer choose to be a LTC DON! (Although I obviously still lurk just to remind myself of the miseries I have escaped). Best of luck to you thru survey.
