Can you update us when you find out about the hospital?
Lots of dust things work out for the best!
Re: Tammy
Apparently our ER is shutting and most of our services are getting moved to sister hospitals. We're only keeping obgyn, bariatrics, the rehab unit and the burn unit. Thats over half the hospital. we'll go from a 500 some bed hospital to 202 beds. And 1500 jobs will be effected by jan across the health system.. but mostly at my hospital.
As for my department. The number of ppl we need here is based on how many patients we have. so I'm sure we'll get hit along the way as our numbers decline. Our boss is telling us not to jump ship cause she wants to look at numbers and see how many of us she needs here... and at the sister hospital she is over also. so we (or 1 of us.. which i know it'll be me grr) will bounce between the two.
But what makes me nervous is if she doesn't need us all, I'm beat by seniority. I've only been here 8 years and the other girls have been here 30 some (even though 1 girls been doing this job less then me.. but working here 30 some).
Ok, that got long. but thats my day in a nutshell. lots of dust please in the next few months! If its me though, I'll take it as a blessing in disguise.
thanks for checking in beck!!
Another thing to think about is the girls that have been there 30 yrs might be making more money than you. Might be better to keep you on in terms of $$$$$.
But they're all freaking out about some old old pension plan they're in.. and if they have to bob between hospitals, that takes a hit some how (or leave all together). They were talking about that to the boss and she started asking them how long they've been here and blahblah. Sooo I don't know which way she'd go with it.. On one hand, keep the experienced ppl that could benefit from staying.. have a harder time finding jobs cause they're in their early 50s (harder to start over) and send me off when I have 40 some years to find something else and move on. Or other hand, keep the less money person.
I guess we'll see! So many ppl are just upset cause this will effect the whole community and they're all so emotionally connected to this hospital cause its one of the oldest ones around.
