Room for improvement - Registered Nurse Oak Ridge Care Center Employee Review

Co workers, good working conditions, unless there's a million call ins. Positive environment. Nice managers.

On call on policy, pto used for sick days, mandatory every other weekend

+Flexibility with schedule for those in school. +most workers are helpful and friendly +chances to pick up shifts plentiful.

-2x a month paydays. -On call policy, some days you are on call meaning you work an 8hr day and if the following shift is short, you are required to work a double. -3rd shift can complain to management that 2nd isn't doing a good job. -desperate for cnas so tend to hire any that pass drug and background check, some leave within 90 days, usually within the first 30 days. -Only nurses/nurse techs can do CPR, cnas are not allowed. So far only 1 AED in building for 74 bed facility. -gossip is rampant, but that is most places. -vital signs equipment seriously lacking. -lpn starting pay just bumped up to $18/hr.
