The residents

Cons of working at Ensign Group

THEY DO NOT EVENLY DISTRIBUTE THE NUMBER OF RESIDENTS. If you work the morning shift and you are placed in the center section of the facility, expect 10-12 residents while everyone else has 9 residents assuming that we are not short-staffed. During the Pm shift, if you work in the East section of the facility, expect 15 residents while everyone else has 12 residents, as that's how it is currently. NOC shift is always short-staffed as staff members call in habitually, so expect 20-24 residents every so often. I've worked AM shift fulltime at a point, and twice a week, I would have three showers to do on my own in one day; other days, I would have none as they do not distribute the showers in accordance with the number of residents in the section. They might tell you that they have a shower a person (a mystical CNA that does all the showers) This has not been the case for a while now with all the call-ins this facility has the shower person ends up having to take a section so we have to do our own showers. During PM, shift there is never a shower person, and I always had to do 2-3 showers a shift. THEY DO NOT PAY STAFF FAIRLY. They strung me along and kept telling me they would give me a raise. When minimum wage went up, I had to ask for a raise; otherwise, I would not have got the raise. After being with the company for over a year, I was getting paid $14 an hour that is less than a new graduate they hired, making $15 an hour. When I brought this up to administration, he was in his ego and did not want to pay me the same amount of $15 even though my review was perfect, and I continuously picked up shifts. I was told that I was one of the best CNA's yet they couldn't pay me the same amount as someone who is habitually late and has less than 6 months of experience as a CNA. He said that the new graduate was making more due to a night differential and asked me if I wanted to work NOC shift. Not taking into account I pick up for NOC shift as they habitually have call-ins and that I've worked NOC shift for 3-4 months fulltime during the holidays. But thanks to them for showing me who they are as I got offered $17 elsewhere. Don't settle. Two CNA's who have worked here for over three years were getting paid less than new graduates and had to ask for a raise and got strung along before management approved to give them $15 the same amount as new hires it's not right. If I work in an environment that promotes the message: "Customer Second: When we take care of our
