Work-life balance
The manager knows that we are always short handed and they don't do anything about it they just make us work short and the pay is not worth it we all try as a team to finish the job but in the end there's no appreciation to the hard work we do everyday they expect us to get the job done and clock out they said every work we do is precious to them but all we get is tired working 2 positions and trying our best to finish  before the clock and if we go pass our time to clock out they question us why we can't finish on time there's no team work in there facility they need to improve by showing there employees that they are important to them they should show more compassion since I work there for years I don't see any of what they say about there mission all I see is angry and people saying they don't wanna be here because all there feeling is stress and tired the company needs to do something about it because we are losing a lot of good people

Pay & benefits
They do provide benefits but we have to pay through our payroll every 2 weeks and its not enough of the take home pay the good part from it is if you work lots of overtime it adds a little to the pay and that's all we get other than that no benefits is provided to employees personally

Job security and advancement
if you qualify they give you the job automatically as long as you have experience

Management
The management is ok they are trying there best to make the facility run smoothly and making sure we have enough staff and making sure our residents feel comfortable and safe

Overall
it's not a bad company to work for and if you get to know residents and start talking to them and smiling together its a wonderful feeling and the staff are great people they do smile and they make a good conversation and just being ourselves

I chose to work at St. Pats because it was a beautiful and clean facility. The nurse to patient ratio is nuts, however the teamwork between nurse and PCT/LPN's was awesome. Your teammates became your family.  Management was a different story. Very Cliquey, hiring friends, giving unqualified people positions of authority, abusing authority. If you stood up for yourself they would try to make it hard for you. A typical day was long hours, short lunch break if you got one, not having relief sometimes at the end of your shift.  High turnover, lots of call-ins. No one was really held accountable for their actions unless they struck a nerve with management . The nuns were sweet!  I was aways in fear of losing my nursing license due to patient ratios and patient concerns not being properly documented by all staff. Would be a nice place if HR had more experience in personnel matters, kept things confidential, and did a clean sweep of management. 

I’ve been a CNA 19 years now in St. Patrick’s is absolutely the best place I have worked at. I love the nurses and the management they are very nice it’s times when I can just text some management when they off duty and talk about anything. They are the first place that I know of that take up for the CNA’s I love that part. The staff really do care about the residents it’s a loving and caring place to work you can be yourself there I’m a goofy fun loving joking person and I can be just that at St. Patrick’s we be short staff at times but we make it cause we all work together as a team so when we short we don’t notice cause everybody comes together so no one gets over worked. If you reading my review come join the team or bring your loved one to are facility so we can give them the best care we know you would love for your loved ones.

My typical day at work was working on a Alzheimer's unit, taking care of the patients that were currently residing their and spending time with them. I learned that no matter where you are in life, you are special and beautiful and need and deserve care and respect. My supervisor was absolutely personable and it was very easy and comfortable to come to her with ideas. My co-workers worked together and although we worked on different units in the nursing home, it was nice to share ideas, concerns, positivity with each other. One of the hardest parts of my job was seeing elderly persons slowly deteriorate and the most enjoyable part of my job was working with these individuals, the smiles, the stories, engaging in activities together.

The residents and most staff are the best part. Management will watch you on cameras, and expect things from you that are not feasible. Management does not have a clue of what actually happens on the floor, and in turn sound unprofessional and uneducated. Staff is burnt out, and new hires are always walking out. Kiss management's butts and you'll go far! Also they don't celebrate their staff. No CNA week and no Nurses week, they won't even wish you a happy week either. 

The residents where great the nuns where good! The place would be great if they had good management and had staff but unfortunately they are always short so you end up getting overworked the management is terrible, she doesn’t know how to manage her department very unprofessional and had favorites doesn’t do no meetings they will just throw you to the field, other than that if that was taken care off it would be a good place to work !

I started out as a housekeeper, and was asked to train new employees. I enjoyed talking to the elderly while I cleaned their room.  
After my second year there my job offered a CNA couse which I took and passed. I wanted to be able to help the elderly as well as talk to them. I also loved working with the nuns.
