Is there a case of any sort here? and where would I find a lawyer to handle this kind of case?
Additional Details:
1. there is not enough staffing on the floor . Acuity and the amount of man power is not taken into account when staffing is put in place.
2. supplies aren''t readily available causing the aids on the floor to have to search on other wings of the facility.
3.The heads of the facility are practicing nepotism and favoritism with both residents and employment.
4. The aids are constantly abused verbally and physical by residents and no actions are being taken by the DON or the ADON or the nursing supervisor making it impossible in some cases to provide the care that that resident needs.
5. The states is constantly being called on the facility by employees and residents but nothing is being done.
6. when the employees come to the staff that''s in charge with a complaint we''re ignored.
7. I''ve worked for the company almost a year and I''ve worked over 23 hr. shifts and was told that because they would get in trouble that they were going to change my times on the time clock.
If you want to attempt to change these circumstances and go on the record with your complaints, if the nursing home takes disciplinary action against you, you might have a whistleblower's claim. You should speak to an employment attorney about that.
