maggie18patchwork 17 Posted March 10, 2011 50223 Just eaten a very large mango !!!! yummy, yummy Work is going to get more stressful as we get closer to closing down the unit, staff feel unsure about what is going on because we get no information. The private unit where most of the staff are going ( except me as I don't believe in private care) keep changing the requirements that will enable them to work there. Told not to book holidays until the new unit opens!!!! I have booked Glastonbury week off and will be going, full stop. Another new system was introduced today to take us further away from caring, computeccr based, no training and not enough computers to imput the required data..... It's form an orderly queue for a computer, forget the patient!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zhivvy 595 Posted March 10, 2011 50224 - oh maggie I feel for you - it is horrible when you have to have change like that and the patient is the least important person in the equation - it is the same in teaching, the child is left behind. I hope that all eases out for you soon maggie xxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Janette B 223 Posted March 10, 2011 50230 Lots of work stress these days!!! Much talk in the news over here too about raising the retirement age, etc. and trying to break up teacher's unions (like teachers are so over paid - wtf???!!!). I really do try and stay optimistic, but it's hard to do while the world crumbles around you, isn't it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
