The hard parts
Staff reviews repeatedly point to understaffing, long hours, and budget cuts, plus an eight-point attendance system that penalizes minor tardiness or a family emergency — ask in your interview how the point system is applied and what the nurse-to-resident assignment actually looks like on nights.
