Pros

My love for the residents are the first thing that comes to mind and Commonwealth focuses on the residents and how they must come first in order to have a successful community. Also the staff I feel is very well taken care of. A lot of incentives.

Cons

A lot of changes and I feel like some times I 'm the las t one to know about them. When the Nursing consultants come, and I have no problems with them doing the audits, but they ask me for forms that need to be on the charts, and I don['t know what they are talking about.

Pros

Good benefits, clean building, easy hiring process.

Cons

Management could care less what was going on. I was so excited to start here and really looking forward to this job. I quickly realized during my training that everyone was in the “clique” and if you weren’t in the “clique” they wanted you out so that they could get someone that they knew hired. It seemed like everyone was related to everyone in someway or another whether you were a CNA, custodian, kitchen staff. They played favorites. I watched a CNA get a $4000 bonus right at Christmas to go towards a down payment for a car. This gift was given to her by a residents family. We were told in training we were not to accept gifts whatsoever from families. But nobody did anything. I got fired for being sick one day but yet I watched somebody show up hours late on Christmas after I missed Christmas with my kids to work short staffed. All in all an awful place to work. Management needs to do better.
