A normal day a work was hetic given all the things that were going on. The floor nursing staff were always will to help with anything they could if they were not busy. Through out my employment i got a better understanding about lab work and different things to make my job easier. Management was was on a continuing flucuating. The communication between upmanagement and floor staff was not where it should have been.They would tell the staff things at the last minute and they had found out early that morning. Certain business should be kept in certain areas and before anything happen the entire staff knew about it. In certain areas of the facility every manager ran every department instead of concentrating on their own department and staff within that department. All in all favortism ran high in mostly every department with certain managers/staff. I enjoyed coming to work to see my residents and seeing them smile and helping them feel like they were not in nursing home. The hardest part of my job was getting things done on time. Everybody would pull you to different things even though you already had a plate full of things to do. Instead of them finding the person that knew about what they were asking they would still hold you responsible for it.

Have been short changed on pay since I started working here a month ago and they have made no effort to pay me what they owe me even though it has been brought to their attention. I was told I was gonna start out at $12.50 an hour, they started me off at $10!! When I brought it to their attention they bumped my pay up to $12 instead of the $12.50 I was promised and have yet to pay me 2 paychecks worth of the difference I am owed. The same day when I came into work I was accused of leaving briefs in residents trash cans which is something I never do!! Do NOT work for this company, they will short change you and retaliate against you if you point out a mistake they’ve made!!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The residents. They are genuinely grateful to be taken care of.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Lack of communication from administration. Not knowing from one day to the next how they want you to do something because they don't tell you when they change the rules. You are just supposed to somehow magically know the rules have changed. And they expect you to accomplish an inordinate amount of work (amounting to the work of two to four people) by yourself in the same amount of time a standard work day.

Toxic. They don't show appreciation for their staff. They focus on the things they think you do wrong rather than encouraging you to grow and get better at your job.

Extremely busy with more work than can be reasonably accomplished.

You could not trust any of the upper management employees.

I come into work at 6 in the morning doing everything I am supposed to be doing and I get in trouble for sitting down cause my feet hurt I am told to get up and find something to do and when I do I get yelled at for doing It. They don’t train you right they expect you to figure it out on your own and if you don’t do it right they yell at you and tell you to do better. This place is very horrible and don’t recommend working here at all. TEMPLE MANOR NURSING HOME TEMPLE OKLAHOMA 73568

You get 3 days of orientation and then you’re on your own. Either you’re going to survive or quit, depends on you. They now have a high turnover rate.The CNAs try to tell the nurses what to do, been on a wage freeze for years so don’t expect to get raises.The DON has a very smart mouth! Had 3 different Administrators in the  years I was there. Always run out of the basic supplies.They do have the best ADON in the world though!
