[QUOTE="PonyGirl65, post: 688759, member: 20087"] Yes. It's "dirty" work. It's hard. It's not for everybody. It takes a special kind of human being to provide care to our residents. The pay isn't horrible, however. And it's not a nursing home setting. It's a home. There are not more than 4 residents to care for at any one setting. Zero notice is intolerable. Our managers are putting in 60 hour weeks to cover the slack. Yes. MANAGERS. Their pay scale is about $2/hour higher than the Direct Service Staff, so it's costing us around an extra $800 dollars per payperiod. And our funding sucks for air. If we keep going at this rate, we'll be out of business in a year. :-( [/QUOTE]
