You say you take care of your people, but your people know it is Bull $h!T. if you did take care of them they would not be leaving and or trash talking you and the company. Take the time to appreciate the people who work hard and care about the job.

Take time out of your day to meet the people face to face and tell them thanks for the work they do. Buy them breakfast or lunch or both. A little goes a long way. Letting your employees know you truly care makes the work environment better. If you don't, your employees will be less productive or may leave altogether and, in the end, you too may be looking for a new job.

So, a little off script this with this episode. I want to talk about the troubles I am hearing in the Healthcare field. Bad employees, no discipline for bad behavior, crappy managers, blind administrators, and arrogant Board members.

It is no secret that the waiting times in the ER to be seen or for an ambulance to off load patients is astronomical. The is no relief in sight and it keeps getting worse.

It seems that management does not care, and all the good workers are fed up and are leaving the business in droves.

It is time to revamp the system from the top down. To the Managers, and Board of Directors go talk to the people who are closest to the issues and figure out how to fix the system and bring in and keep the good employees.

You graduated the academy and you got your station assignment. You are ready to embark on the best job in the world. So what can you do to be a productive part of your new shift?

In this epsode I will lay out what you the rookie can do to be productive. I offer advice to the senior shift members to help turn out the best rookies.
