Pros

The residents and families are great. The salary is good and the benefits are good as well.

Cons

The management is unprofessional. The DON spends all day primping in a mirror, playing fart sounds on her cell phone during morning meeting, she is only there for the free house keeper and paycheck. The BOM is rude to everyone she comes in contact with. She repeatedly talks to residents, family members and staff in the same manner you would to scold a 5 year old child. She doesn't know her own job. She downgrades all of the staff. Her employees are constantly on edge because of her. She gets away with every complaint made on her, because that is just how she is. Abuse is abuse no matter what in my eyes.

Pros

The people I worked with.

Cons

I can say this now that I no longer work there: Kindred was both one of the best and one of the worst places I've ever worked. On one hand, I learned an incredible amount and gained valuable experience that helped me grow as a nurse. On the other hand, I spent nearly every shift worried about the safety of my nursing license due to what I felt were unsafe staffing ratios, some* poor leadership, and decisions that often seemed driven more by finances than patient care. I repaid my sign-on bonus on March 6, yet I'm now receiving letters claiming the payment was never received and threatening legal action. Fortunately, I have proof that the payment was made. What makes this especially frustrating is that I ultimately left because the stress of working there contributed to serious health issues, including a heart condition. I've attached the resignation letter I submitted when I left, as well as my ECG’s I took from my watch while working that resulted in me going to the ER the next day. Everyone's experience is different, but based on my own experience, I would strongly encourage nurses to do their research before accepting a position with Kindred Hospitals or Scion.
