Well it is over. I am torn because I really needed the job but the the people were awful. They are the reason why nursing home surveyors have a bad name. To rant and rave and carry on in such a place is awful.
So when he told me today that West Virginia was not going to use contract surveyors it was a relief. It was also a lie. He had already told us they got a contract for the work but he refused to share the details in a group.
I will enjoy being home again with my precious deaf dog and sleep in the comfort of my own bed.
Bedsides it will give me more opportunity to write here.

This job
The job that I currently have is ending next week. I really like doing this job the only problem are the dragons I work with. Why do I say dragons because they breath fire. A couple of weeks ago we split up the teams that week 2 of the worst were in a different facility. It was a pleasant week, our work was done and there was no drama. This week back to pure hell. I even had the queen dragon dragging me around by the nose. When she wanted to dictate that everybody go back to the place of work really late and then really early I put my foot down and did not do it.
These dragon wanted to catch the nursing home locking someone out of the building and to catch them using less people than stated to transfer someone out of bed. Well they found nothing. What they succeeded in doing was making themselves really tired and making the whole team look like dragons.
I would like to continue to have this job but the dragons need to have their fire removed.

Injustice
My new job is keeping me way to busy. I really do not like it. I like the job it is just that the people I work with are self serving bitches.
We are supposed to be providing a service that ensures the residents in nursing homes are safe and cared for. I find it improbable that someone who can make derogatory statements about the residents of the town, the home itself , and the workers are able to make an objective opinion about what they are seeing. To make snide remarks of someone's parentage, relationship status, or economic status are uncalled for. I do not want to be near you because how do I know you are not saying the same crap about me.
So we are working in West Virginia and they have this law or statute that allows a doctor to sign a paper that makes anyone they want to loose all their rights. This paper states that the person "lacks capacity" thereby giving decision making authority to someone else. I cannot imagine being unable to decide what medications I wan to take, where I want to go, if I even want to not be tied to a chair because I might fall down.
Other states do not do this. In order to do something even similar would be to have a court appointed guardian. That is only going to happen if you are so out of touch with reality or comatose. Time for WV to get with the times and get rid of that piece of paper and the stigma it places on people. This is a good reason to not live in WV.
