What is the best part of working at the company?
Working with the veterans and establishing a good working relationship with them. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Time was always a factor and always wanted us to hurry and move on to the next activity. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The veterans were great it was the employees that made the environment impossible to work in. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Nonstop from the moment you clocked in, to the end of your shift was constant go and most of the time you didn’t clock out on time.

The new management company HMR is a great company and have great potential to Ussery great but with the current administrative staff that potential is wasted. It's all about favoritism and who you know. It's all gossip and mean girl high school mentality. HR hires her friends and family, so if you have an issue with someone forget taking it to HR. There is next to no support. If you stand up for yourself they will find a reason to fire you. Those veterans deserve so much better. Such potential wasted.

I wanted to love the job I had. I loved working with the veterans and the floor staff. HR and staffing coordinator are mean girls, who bully staff who don’t do what they want them too. It is unsafe to report admin to corporate because they will retaliate by changing your schedule,  and/or removing you from it completely without notifying you, and either term you for the smallest thing, or pester  you until you quit. When HR asked on of the RNs to do her dirty work and was told no, she told them “if I told you it was do it or it’s your license, you would do it”. 

The turnover is extremely high here bc of the toxic and hostile work environment created by HR. Very unfortunate for those who genuinely care and  just want to work and be there for the very deserving veterans. Not at all how I thought my experience here would be and not at all how HR presented this opportunity to me in my interview and orientation. Extremely hurtful and disappointing. Please beware.

My typical work day was very fast paced with up to 40 residents per unit. 50% of the patients suffered from long term healing wounds, were I improved my wound care skills. The most difficult part if my job was loosing long term residents. We had a fantastic DON who intently listened to the staff concerns. I would recommend this job for any who would be willing to work hard.

On a daily basis I led about 4 to 5 Activities plus any meetings I am required to attend.  I've learned that there is never enough Activities that need to be done.  Management is poor, listening is an issue.  My co-workers for the most part are great people.  The hardest part of my job is trying to do too much and not having enough hours in my department.  I enjoy the resident stories and enjoy decorating for different seasons.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy there is always something going on with and for the residents.

Hostile and toxic work environment. Numerous complaints made, but nothing ever done. Sadly, nothing will change until the source of the problem is replaced, which is unfortunately HR. There are some great employees and the Veterans are precious. Both deserve much better. 

this place sucks...they practice the bully system and will work you to death... they keep firing people who are good workers which makes them under staffed and will refuse to find some one to help when they need the it.... pay is not good... you take care of 30 residents by your self and it feels like your nothing but a slave... I am currently looking for another job.
