Overworked and underpaid! - Caregiver, CNA, Wellness Nurses, Housekeeping Aegis Living Employee Review

Definitely not in the market for increased compensation to their employees. Local fast food places pay higher than Aegis. They dont give annual pay raises. I'm yet to get one x 3 years. The CEO stresses often, if you want a pay raise, work on being promoted. He failed to mention that you dont always get a pay raise with the promotions you're offered. However, you definitely would get more responsibilities added. Oh and if your resident is constantly pushing his pendant pr hollering out help, and you have to of course constantly go attend to them, most of the time not even realizing they pushed the pendant. Well, the points get added on to the care plan. Who gets that added $1500 a month that they charged the resident....NOT the caregiver who continuously answered the pendant.. that would be Mr. Dwayne Clark. He is compensated for what we are doing. Oh yeah, and that so called promotion....you can only go so far in the community. They dont even pay holiday pay for Memorial Day.. God Bless Aegis, not God Bless America. I bet corporate office is closed and getting holiday pay though. Oh and the nurses at my community didnt even get a bonus for nurses week. That's how ungrateful they are not to even recognize our hard working nurses.
