While - more.| Preliminary Conference (PC) / Intake Part | Compliance Conference Part (CCP) | I worked there 5 years and it was hard to go through all the big dreams and promises that the higher-ups make/allude to but never actually pan out. Unfortunately, if you want to move up in the company, you will have to drink the Kool-aid of The Center and play the networking/popularity games-you're not going to move up the ranks based on your work ethic alone. There's never a dull moment with them and each student/resident is so different from the next that you'll learn and use every skill a clinician needs.
Center for discovery nyc plus#
The clientele is the biggest plus of this job. You are salaried and are expected to put in as many hours as it takes to meet their standards, which are challenging for even the most efficient clinicians to keep up with working just the normal 8 hours. It is a highly cognitively and emotionally demanding position that's often thankless (most management is not going to be empathetic or appreciative of all of the unpaid overtime you're going to put into just staying above water). However, this wealth of experience comes at a high cost in emotional/energy reserves. The job offers a lot of opportunity to use your creativity in meaningful ways (i.e., inventing equipment, planning programs, exploring various specialties). The Center will be very inspiring at first, especially for recent grads, as it should be because this is a ground-breaking place for this population in many ways. I can only speak to the experience as a professional/clinician working at The Center, not as a direct care worker which I imagine is a very different experience.
What a shame because there's so much potential. Money and greed will be the death of this place. They make decisions that affect the lives of residents negatively without even bothering to come into the house or ask the people that work with them EVERYDAY for their two cents. To all the higher ups especially the ones up tope, the residents are just a number. So residents can be surrounded by the most caring and loving people like staff and nurses who will advocate and fight for them, but talking to management is like pulling teeth. Many of the staff are compassionate and caring people who love the residents they care for and want whats best for the residents,īut higher ups make decisions based on money and not necessarily whats best for the resident. One day a rule exists, and the next day it doesn't - all depends on what makes managements job easier. They'll say a new hire who's still on a red badge (no clearance) cannot do specific things like float to other houses, but if they really need the staff somewhere, they'll bend those rules. Also, the center's rules only apply when it's convenient to management. They overwork and underpay staff hence the high turnover rate, and the hardworking staff that choose to stay aren't valued at all. They masquerade as being the best across the state with nothing to show for it, it's all fluff. Management only cares about money and image. The hardworking staff who work in the houses are the backbone of this place and yet management continually treats them like garbage.
