Need to ensure that the new HR person keeps the same personality as Myron.

Do quarterly events or 1 event a month so HR can get their work done. I see them at every event They need to work too. Give them a break or have each department host an event.

Leadership needs to be more involved. We see HR and the CEO doing their best with the monthly events and celebrations, but where is management??? Why are they not part of the celebrations and events?? Makes me feel like they don't care about us!

Staffing and more staff training with their scope

Having more food trucks etc

Improve staffing , B units needs 2 nurses if census is down we can always send staff home , it’s the beginning of the shift that really needs manpower as nurses start passing meds , needs to discharge patients and also needs to transfer patients to another unit/ admissions. Once those issues address, units start to slow down.Needs for units racks for patients snack containers to put on , or sometimes coffee containers, rather than on the floor / place at top of charts rack.

Pay, communication from supervisors and CNO. HR does a fantastic job of communicating.

Keeping stock available

Everything.Communication is a big one with LBH, Corporate, and HCSWe have some department heads that don’t really help when we ask for it. It’s more of a figure-it-out-yourself attitude.We hire people back that did a bad job before only to be doing the same when back? Doesn’t make sense.We need a safe room/area where we can all vent to each other with no judgement. Free therapy session! But then again there’s a lot of employees here that don’t like each other. So never mind.

MORALE - it's very low here. no one feels appreciated or heard. HR tries to do something for staff but new HR is always a Debbie-downer and complains under her breath if no employees show up to such "event" happeningSTAFF - we need to start over and start fresh. we have so many employees that do what they want and not follow protocols/procedures. they think they know what's better and ignore all higher ups. even some department heads need to be re-evaluated (they don't know what they're doing half the time and always has an attitude when you go to them for any help). we also have a lot of employees who are rude and disrespectful to others. we have people getting promotions and still not knowing how to do their jobs correctlyKEEP THE PARKING GARAGE! all employees still want it! no one asked for a parking lot.
