I would like better benefits particularly around maternity leave.And the programming schedule does not always work with the patients. I have had patients complain to me about having to do the same topic for every group and the schedule does not let us adjust our group topics to fit the patients more. For example, if a group were to ask for a group surrounding the topic of grief, our schedule would not allow for that when it is something the patients state they will benefit from.And the PM group times are not the best and the patients complain about having a group that late into the evening. Having a MHT led fun group around that time might be more beneficial for the patients and staff

- More compensation for what we do on the job. we do a lot and deal with so much and it puts a toll on OUR mental health, and we get paid so little for it.- having a FUNCTIONING vital machine on each unit instead of having to run around looking for one during a code blue- better hands-on training because some people are just plain clueless and there’s always new people training new people- more hygiene supplies available for patients because why are we always out of basic hygiene products- longer breaks as a choice because if we go out for food and they take long or there’s traffic, we don’t even get to eat on break. we get back to work and it’s already time to clock back in- more staff on units because we are always short staffed and struggling and then we can’t even take breaks but breaks are mandatory. it doesn’t make sense.

Reducing workload by providing more staff.

- BETTER PAY FOR WHAT WE DO- MORE MONEY- WE GET SICK AND STILL HAVE TO COME IN- MORE STAFF ON UNITS- MIRE COMPENSATION

More staffing, more equipment to work with, and increase in pay.

Implement differential pay for the weekend staff in social services, as well as bonuses when short staffed.

Once again alot as as Therapist years of school to get my Masters and had to beg to get started at 50,000 yearly while at Smryna where they have more resources and even case managers to help the Therapist they start around 55,000 yearly. Basic items sock, toothpaste, feline pads for women are alot of times not available, they are making money but dont put it back in the right places. They raised the nurses station but most hospitals have an enclosed nursing station if all hell brakes loose there is a place of refuge for the staff, but here you are still getting your ass whipped because they are too cheap to fully enclose it.
