-A typical day work would be working a 12 hour shift 7a-7p. They only offer 12 hour shifts. I worked AM, so that meant baths, toileting, breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all of my responsibility.  Expect no stability as far as the floors you work on and your coworkers. Very short staffed everyday I was working with a different nurse or aides. And most days I found myself working entire floors by myself I’d have 18-21 people by myself. With no one to ask for help because schedulers were always quitting. 

-This job has definitely changed the outlook I’ve had on people. I would regularly get disrespectful treatment from aides, dietary aides, nurses, hr, nuns, and supervisors. You’ll find yourself reporting to the point it seems like you are the problem. I honestly wish I’d left sooner, but the residents really made it worthwhile. It was coworkers/staff that really made the experience far from enjoyable. 

-As for management, there have been times when nurses and aides were very rude to me/would not pick up their share, and when I’d report they’d turn me into the problem. I found that there were a lot of cliques. People would mistreat you because they have people in management to back them up. 

-The workplace culture is far from ideal. After leaving this institution I’ve developed PTSD and hyper vigilance. It seemed everywhere you turned there was someone ready to go on a power trip. 

-The hardest part of my job was morning and nights. In the morning you have to bathe, and get the residents ready for breakfast then go down to the kitchen to also prepare three plates, food, make theirs tea or coffee, all while also being mindful of the call lights, same for lunch and dinner. 

-The most enjoyable part of my job were some of the residents. They are why I stayed for as long as I did. 

I'm not a huge fan of working skilled and long term but to be a patient/consumer this has to be the best skilled/long term facility you could reside. Working was quite stressful patient loads were an adjustment, as well as less time with your patient and their chart. They have rules about not working past the time clock and before the time clock and during breaks. So there is no opportunity to cheat your way with charts.Med passes are at least every 2 hours if not every hour with poly pharmacy. That is something they tell the nurses that management conferences about. A pro is they are super clean! RNS will Break their back! They micromanage and have high turn over rates.I like a lot about the companys expectations for a nurse. I do not think they're realistic about patient ratio with crushing pills and getting sleeping patients to swallow at 30-1.

working at mother angeline was challenging in terms of work load and dealing with the different personalities of resident,families and coworkers.I enjoyed my work experience for the time.but due to family reason I had to relocate.management was great we were treated with respect at all times.the hard part for me was watching some deteriate over time.my happiness interacting with them in a good mood.some of their life experiences their appreciation of me as a good caretaker,me walking away feeding thankful for making them happy knowing I have done a good job is what I look forward to in my everyday life leaving an impression.

Residents, co-workers, everyone helps each other when and if they can.

Administration and management. Working short most of the time, taking on more than two units (three units is illegal),  being stretched beyond physical and mental limits, burn out.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressful, don't know from one day to the next if will have enough staff.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful, it is the unknown that makes it that way.

As far as facilities go for stna duties it’s like most. One thing that stands out on the negative side is for meal times the stna staff are expected to go help kitchen staff with getting trays prepped and made, which takes a fair bit of time away from your residents around each meal period. Another is they Will move your assignments on little to no notice which wouldn’t be an issue if its floors you’ve been trained on but isn’t usually the case and unfortunately in my case I was left caring for the entire unit of 20 with never meeting them before and a very unhelpful nurse assigned to the unit. 

Beautiful facility and competitive pay with lower manageable productivity rate. Culturally Diverse and overturn of staff. Therapy staff was great but Nursing staff wasn’t always attentive to patient needs. Seen a few patients end up in hospital septic or close to being septic because of a simple UTI ignored after Therapy reported symptoms. Nursing wouldn’t check bc they had certain criteria the patient had to meet. Well not everyone has the same or all symptoms at the same time. Nursing doesn’t listen much to seasoned therapists. 

I had a rocky start here but found my footing. The nurses and aides i work with are great people. Management is not good at all They do not care for the workers at all! ABSOLUTELY no raises ever, only 2 paid holidays. The COVID response was slow. Only recently have they made us feel comfortable in getting KN95 masks before i had my mask stapled together for at least 3 months and got attitude from Administration for asking for a new one. The only reason i work here are my patients and my coworkers. The sisters have always been very nice.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It was so stressful and the were constantly changing the rules and not making it clear what was expected of you

I worked in the dietary department, and we were ALWAYS busy. If you like being on your feet and keeping busy all day, that's a plus. If not, you're gonna have a bad time. Lunch breaks are only 30 minutes. A lot of food goes to waste and you're not allowed to take any of it. The manager is a decent guy, and there are some friendly folks in this department. There are a lot of call-offs on the weekends though, which you're not supposed to do unless you have a doctor's note.

Loving and caring staff to all residents. The work environment at Mother Angeline was always fast moving , but no matter how busy everybody was they showed how much they cared for their residents. All departments supported the Mission of the institution, by providing loving care at all times. We always tried to come up with new ideas to make the residents lives as full as possible. I believed in the mission statement.
