I would rate this with "0" stars if I could. I applied and was hired PRN. The day that I was supposed to have my Orientation, I drove all the way out there (90 miles round trip) and they had cancelled my orientation and had forgotten to call me. I was to start training the next morning. Instead, they called me a few hours later, and asked me to go Full-Time and to start training that night. I did gladly. The nurses training me were amazing. Very knowledgeable, friendly, efficient, and caring. Trained for 3 days, and then was on my own. Worked the next 9 nights in a row, because that was how the schedule worked out with a prior obligation I had. The DON acts as if she cares. I didn't even meet her until I went to pick up my first paycheck 2 weeks later. They have mandatory meetings almost every payday with no direct deposit. (Strike 1)I had worked the night before payday and was scheduled to work that night also. They had also scheduled me for the "Mandatory" New Hire Orientation that had been cancelled before. I stayed trying to sleep in my truck because I live so far and Orientation was scheduled from 9:30-12:30 and then the Mandatory Staff Meeting. It was too cold to stay in my truck, so I came back into the facility about 9:00, after getting off of work about 6:30 or 7:00. Then, I was informed when I finally met the DON, that the orientation had been cancelled again and no one remembered to call me to let me know. I was never told about all of these mandatory meetings until a few days before payday. I have a previous obligation on Wednesdays and was told by the DON to choose which was more important. (Strike 2) I had gotten sick and was tested positive for Strep. I had informed them at the Mandatory Meeting at 2pm that day that I was getting tested and I would let them know if I was positive. I attempted to call in and was told that I HAD to cover my shift. I was not on antibiotics yet, because I had to wait until I had the cash to pay for the meds. I was told that it didn't matter; I had to work even though I was contagious and putting everyone at risk. Patients & staff alike. Within a few days, we had to test several patients for Strep. (Strike 3) I got injured on the job, when I caught a full-figured patient from falling. They did send me to the Urgent Care Clinic immediately, however, since it was still so early, I had to wait in the cold, in my truck for the place to open. My time was not compensated. Was told later that this company does not compensate you for your time. (The only facility that I have ever worked at that doesn't)X-rays were clear, went back to work. Was told to follow up if pain continued, but I could only follow up at that ONE PARTICULAR clinic (46 miles away from where I live). (Strike 4) Requested off Christmas Eve and told them that I would work EVERY OTHER HOLIDAY in order to have it off. DON told me not to worry about it. The person that does the schedule, told me back in November, that my re
