Pros
The pay is about the only plus. I have learned a very valuable lesson, Do your research before committing to anything!
Cons
Well where do I start....The residents had not been taken care of and what I specifically mean by that is we were unable to use washing machines and dryers. They had been broken two days and mind you there is only one maintenance man there. There were myself and another lady to do the CNA work. Now when I did my interview I was told 5 per cottage. Well that was not the case, there were two CNA's and then a LPN that was new. When I tell you I had to change sheets and clothes 12+ times in a two hour period I'm not joking and these people had no clothes! so I was left in a situation where I could NOT properly care for these residents, I was/am mortified. The residents family were so rude and nasty, I have never in my years of doing this have I witnessed every family member to be condescending but, I guess I know why now. These residents where/are not being cared for properly. It just goes to show you have to do your research before putting yourself in these situations.
