Maintaining the immediate needs of the patients. Often times we run out of certain things that the patients request. I would like to just always be able to provide what they need when requested. We also need to address the Coffee Issue in the morning when staff are bickering about who's Coffee pot belongs where. I believe that each unit should be assigned new one's, where we are allowed to keep them on the units, and clean them every morning in staff breakroom sink. This would be to ensure that they don't get broken by staff who doesn't know how to handle them properly and etc. (Kitchen Staff included). I feel so strongly about this be the patients look forward to this daily and it is becoming a serious issue as a result.Staff meetings should allow a 15 mins window for the techs to speak freely about whatever current issues they may be having and needs to be resolved. Even if it's not addressed in the current meeting. As long as they are allowed the floor to do so possibly.

Not making it mandator or get written up for not doing a group that us MHTS don’t have a degree in. If so we should get a extra $2-$3 or bonus for that group.

Communication and leadership. Training with insurance.

The workspace is very limited when it comes to computers.

There should be more computers available in offices. The wifi needs updating.

Understaffed on weekends; unsafe nurse to patient ratios. B units should never be a 1 nurse unit, it's incredibly unsafe for patients and licensed staff. Unprofessional

Staff communicationEqual distribution of staffing esp weekends for days shifts

Cleanliness, the management make staff feel uncomfortable. Some director has anger issues.Many employees works here because the need to pay bill in other words they have no good motivation,, why ?

Though numerous, I would list 5 months worth of daily notes on the operations of LBH and the multitudinous inadequacies within it's practices, if only I had not the firm belief developed through substantial evidence that the ability to be rely upon any member of staff to tell any truth or follow through on any claim wholly could be trusted.
