- I worked in the Psychiatric department(s) in the hospital. This facility has very few staff members that actually care about the patient as a person. The majority of nurses do not provide therapeutic care, perform next to no assessment of their patients, but still feel they can document on them. The floor manager had no psych background, and smiles so hard, it is clearly fake. Instead of convincing tbeir nurses to become more patient-centered, they all promise leadership roles to the Yesmen, which leads to tension. Everyone wants to be in charge, that there arent any worker bees. They hire these "Clinical Nurse Leaders" that do absolutely nothing, but vet paid more than the nurses working the trenches. The director is a businessman, and only cares about expanding. He told me of an upcoming merge before he told his staff. I think it was an attemot to recruit me. Out of all the staff, there were maybe a handful I thought performed their jobs appropriately. They have ridiculous policies due to past events that essentially punish current employees (this rounding system that has a staff member walking around all the time, and no one wants to do it, so they do it haphazardly as it is) They are starting to mix acutely psychotic with criminal/forensic offenders and even throwing some geriatric patients in the mix. They kept a highly volatile patient there for weeks, allowing him to assault 8 different patients and staff (because he had guaranteed insurance) - They love the Medicare/Medicaid population because they have no maximum length of stay, so they can just keep revolving the door on the same patients who do not have advocates of their own. The psychiatrists do not diagnose or prescribe properly, and I actually sometimes wonder if they went to medical school at all. 02/26/2017
Housing was approximately 2 mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was Hotels - I chose myself. Housing was located in city of Rochester, NY. On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 4. The Lexington by the airport used to be a Holiday Inn, went downhill as the Holiday Inn, was bought out and refurbished. For the cheap price (negotiate with the business office to get < $60 a night) - The room is pretty decent. No free breakfast, but they will shuttle you to work everyday if you dont have a car. Ask for a room with a mini fridge and microwave. Return to top of page
