Yearly pay raises to PRN staff.

Unfair treatment towards staffLeadership should stop with the Gossiping and concentrate on leading the team for success.

RIS could improve in communications, implementation of directives, upper management training and diversity. In my tenure here we have had 2/3 HR management changes, 3 different CE0s, 2/3 COOs, 3 BOM, multiple supervisor/lead changes and all of this has lead to false, misleading information, personal agendas being enforced, manipulation and low key bullying from some who are in management positions. There are veiled threats being issued which causes low or diminished morale. The work place is not happy nor conducive for positivity.I think you should vet your upper management staff better to make sure they are a good fit for not only to increasing revenue, fill a position but also improve attrition not contribute to it. I realize the RIS is a business, but we must find a way to make it better for those who serve the business as well the lower/under management positions that are really the heart, pulse and drive of the business. Be open to a flexible work schedule that can be modified for a better work-life-home balance for all. Consider a 4 or 4 -1/2 day week work schedule for office staff and personnel that may work better for some individuals (not everyone is interested) with detailed enforcement and guidelines to ensure that the Individual is responsible and held accountable. I would love to work 4 - 9 hours days M-Th and 4 hours on Friday.

Most Things

Staffing - There should be at least 2 nurses in each unit, for safety purposes. Nurses should not have to go to other units or ask a nurse from another unit to sign or witness blood glucose done, or to get overrides on medications.Safety - Nurses cannot safely leave their units for breaks, when there's only one nurse in the unit. It means patients are not safe, left alone with just the MHT. Nurses licenses are at stake in such cases.Pickiing up of gifts - Staff should not have to go to Administration office or HR to pick up T shirts or other RIDGEVIEW gifts, as not every staff can be able to do so based on their shifts, especially for night shift nurses. Gifts can be routed to staff through supervisors or managers and signed for equally, to prevent the inconvenience of going to HR, when they are not even open early enough for night shift staff to go to their office.Pay increases - Rate of yearly pay increase should be better, as current rates are too low.PTOs - Stop using staff ptos to cover times not worked. The ptos are for staff to use the way they want, such as for vacations or family emergencies. The purpose of PTO is defeated when they are used up by RIDGEVIEW without staff consent. This is an abuse of power.

The wages should be higher for employees working in the dietary and kitchen departments.
