Properly compensate the work staff.

Staff retention remains an issue. Improving wages, taking into consideration workloads and staffing appropriately particularly with patient acuity would be a benefit. Additionally, how upper management speaks to staff. One can give criticism or feedback or discipline kindly.Mandating employees to come in on their time off for a meeting is ignoring the fact that we have other obligations. Perhaps the ability to attend via zoom would help.Lack of supplies especially on weekends. It's embarrassing to tell patients we have no soap....

Stated they hire aren’t always screened accurately accurately sometimes it’s about money not patient’s

Staffing for nurses. There is way too high turnover. Staff appropriately and retain your nurses. You try to save money by understaffing, but you end up losing money because of the turnover. And nursing staff is demoralized and feels undervalued. 14 to 18 patients with high acuity level is way too much for one nurse. Staff accordingly. Support your nurses. Pay your nurses a fair wage. At yearly reviews, if a nurse is doing a good job, give them a decent raise, not 50¢ an hour to insult them.

Appreciating staff

Top nursing management (CNO) is in disarray and needs to set consistent and repeated reinforcement of clinical floor staff expectations.
