NORTH MOUNTAIN REHABILITATION CENTER

I came to North Mountain as a very green nurse, and have learned so much over the years!   I've worked in different roles and have been able to have many opportunities to learn new skills. I feel appreciated and respected in my workplace.

First off, we have great management- I feel like the CEO, DON, department managers, charge nurses, etc. really care about me as an individual and do everything they can to help me excel at my job and in life. 

We have a real team work approach at North Mountain. 
We have complex and very challenging patients most with trach/airways, on vents, lots of HD.  In order to provide good care for these patients, we need a team approach. Whenever I am on the floor I have an assortment of CNAS, nurses, and respiratory therapists that are always willing to offer a hand in taking excellent care of our patients.
We are also provided with needed supplies, training and resources to do our jobs efficiently and effectively.  

The health care field is challenging both mentally and physically, North Mountain is a challenging place to work. We have difficult patients with a multitude of health issues. At times I've worked many long hours with super hard days. Over the years I have had many different patients, co-workers, and roles. One thing that has consistently stayed the same over the last 5+ years and continually improves- is the work place culture. Every day I go to work, I feel like I have the backing and support of a huge team of co-workers that are like family.

I would definitely recommend working here!

My typical day at my job consists of either working on the floor as a C.N.A., as an R.N.A, Dialysis Tech or helping out the staffing coordinator. As a C.N.A., I take patients vital signs, I shower or bathe my patients. I get patients dressed to get up out of bed with a Hoyer lift to and from the wheelchair or walker with a gait belt. The patients get up for all meals, therapy, appointments or activities. I also give patients oral care, nail care, and companionship. Throughout my shift, I also chart electronically each patients Activity of Daily Living. At the end of my shift, I do walking rounds with the oncoming C.N.A. and give them a full report of each patient. I have learned how to take care of patients with foley catheters, wounds, tracheostomies, ventilators, gastrointestinal tubes, T.P.N.'s, dialysis, PICC lines, I.V.'s, colostomy bags, isolation, amputated limbs,parapalegic, quads, total dependent or limited assistance. Management is amazing at my current job. They communicate on a day to day basis, with all 350 staff. We have many different departments at my job, that consist of housekeeping, respiratory therapist, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, nursing, activities, RNA, on-site dialysis, an outside hospice service that comes in, social services, dietitian, business office and medical records. The workplace culture we live by our mission each and every day. The hardest part of my job is when patients pass away. The most enjoyable part of my job is when the patients smile and say thank you, for helping them out throughout their day.

After working here over a year and a half, there isn't a day that goes bye i'm not grateful for finding this place. As the world turns for better or worse, North Mountain is standing strong and leading the pact in every way. Our core values is what sets us apart but binds this building together. Until coming here the motto with every other company was customers first. Here is quite the opposite with the customer in mind, but always second. With North Mountain putting their employees first, the love and compassion instilled in us flows into everything else. The room for growth here has shown me a new path multiple times. I've had the chance to work in four completely different departments and its lead me to central supply, somewhere I never imagined myself but ever so grateful to be. My four different managers at the time ALL took me under their wings. It feels good knowing they are here for you and your well being. Hardest part of my job is having all the extra knowledge given to me from working other departments and not having the time to help as much as I'd like. Quite the contrary, the most enjoyable part, having all this different experience makes me a go to for answers and solutions and its rewarding when the building benefits from it.

Worked here for almost 6 months. This company gloats about how their employees come first and that is far from the truth for me. I am one to own my mistakes and as far as the RT manager, I have never been treated so horribly or disrespected so badly. The nights were very long and eventful but extremely rewarding taking care of these types of patients. This was my first time working in this kind of facility. I have always worked ICU/trauma/ER so it was a huge change of pace for me but the experience was awesome. Had management been fair and honest I would’ve considered retiring for this company! The patients won my heart and made me want to be there. My focus was on them and learning more about their conditions. Gained a lot of knowledge working here for the short time I did. I wish things would’ve turned out completely opposite but sadly due to the choices and behavior of one individual my life has been forever changed and not in a good way except for the knowledge, love and devotion the patients gave me and taught me. If I received anything good from This company it would be the rewarding benefits I received from the patients.

I thought it was gonna be a great job at first but I quickly realized how unwilling to help other coworkers were. I had to fend for myself to figure out how to do just about everything and do two person jobs by myself. Everyone was always gossiping and the people there were so extremely toxic. It made me very anxious to go to work everyday as there was only a very small handful of nice workers there and they were not in my field. They were almost all people I didn’t get to work with often. Many of the nurses and almost all of the CNAs were very rude and judgemental and they even gossiped about patients in other patient rooms in front of families and residents. They never really treated the patients very well either

A lot of the management is very nice and helpful. Which is probably the best thing I appreciate here. They do work with your schedule only if you actually work some hours for them first and if they see your a good worker they will work with you. It’s always busy to the point where you’re taking your break close to the end of your shift or not at all. They are extremely understaffed. Most staff (coworkers on the floor) are not very friendly/helpful which makes the day very hectic because of all the things you have to do on your own. Also very hard to get decent raises.  Very short staffed and current rash outbreak to the point where most staff have it. Not sure if it’s scabies. 

Hello!
I have been employed at North Mountain for almost 12 years.
I can't see myself working at any other health care facility because of North Mountain's culture. All employees are taught what we call CAPLICO and we practice it daily!
CAPLICO stands for: Customer Second, Accountability , Passion For Learning, Love One Another, Intelligent Risk Taking, Celebration and Ownership.
I love what I do and I love serving our patient's above and beyond.
Our CEO and Director of Nursing are top notch and it shows!
We have been deficiency free for three years and there's a reason for that....... We have the best CEO, Director of Nursing and staff ever!
I would highly recommend working at North Mountain in any position applied for.
You will not be disappointed, I sure wasn't, as I am still employed and have been for almost 12 years!
I encourage you to make today great!

North Mountain is a nice place to work. Everyone is friendly and great supporters of each other. Plenty of available OT and competitive pay. Continued education is provided though out the year. Always have needed supplies on hand, and lots of staff incentives. 
This company does micro manage staff. Limited to almost No sitting during shift. Expectation on paper are not always real life applicable. Not very courteous with regard to night shifter's life hours and availability for meetings/education. Managment expects you to be available to them when its convenient for them. CNAs are limited with large work loads especially NOCs.

I've been working here for 1+years and I noticed most of them aren't really nice people.just few staffs treat you nice but most of them they will treat you like nothing. most nurses get upset when cna's cannot answer their call on the radio and they report you immediately but when cna's call them  its so easy for them to ignore you but we as 'cna's' don't complaint much about it. there are few nurses that I like, treat you fair like one of them, like makes you happy when they are happy to see you working with positive attitude makes you motivate to work hard and inform your nurses about the patients, knowing that they care your concerns and the patients.

A typical day started at 1400 and off the floor at 2200, did not leave the building most days until around 0200. Was a heavy patient load with very sick patients. You learn to be very good at time management when it comes to patient care. Management changed hands several times during the time I worked there so it was challenging to get to know them. Co-workers were friendly. The hardest part of the day was having to get a 12 hour day for patient care completed in 8 hours. The most enjoyable part was taking care of the patients. They all showed gratitude in the care you would give them.
