the nurses at a old folks home i work at were trusted to cook once. they actually fed the residents this.

r8 their oven roasted turkey and roux on mashed potatoes with oven roasted carrots.

they are so dumb i cant even explain it to you. Frequently using raw beef thats been in the fridge for 5+ days, even go as far to think they can freeze it after that long and be able to thaw it out and do it again. They frequently thaw raw meat on the counter or in hot water and even once in the pan they were going to cook in for over 5 hours at room temp or above. its truly amazing these old frail residents survived any of this. i straight up told my boss that im doing all the cooking when im there and that they can not be allowed in the kitchen. im far from a chef but this is supposed to be common sense shit. im a young dude with literally 0 non-home cooking experience why do these women know so little about cooking

did they really just put butter and flour on top of mashed potatoes? or did you mean to say gravy?

>> No.12165012

>>12164999
no i went out of my way to clarify that was literally butter and flour heated up in a pan. if you didnt notice that 'oven roasted turkey' is actually 2 slices of turkey lunch meat they baked and put on untoasted wheat bread that i would not be surprised is expired.

its no fault of the facility. the nurses are just mind blowingly retarded. they dont check experation dates and shit which at a place like that is just something you do, its not like a restaurant that has product going in and out constantly.

It does, milk gravy is a thing and that's all it really is. But even still that plate is pretty depressing. I like open face sandwiches sometimes but even just adding a little cranberry sauce and a slice of cheese would improved it 10x, along with not turning the carrots into charcoal.

this is what i cook them. dont often get to plate it this nicely and its not like im working with the most complex of meals here but hey they were happy.

if i recall this was a honey curry chicken breast with mushroom pilaf and broccoli. the garnish is just the curry sauce, figured itd be good with the rice.

>>12165037
its a very, very high quality and expensive facility. i guarentee you there are no problems like that, im actually the maitenance man. management was just unaware of how inept the nurses were and that this was going on. theyve since hired cooks that do alright and are replacing me with an actual dietary nutritionist so i can return to my main job functions that arent even cooking related.

>>12165100
checkd but usually employers arent punished for the sins of the employees. if a male daycare employee fondles a kid its gonna be bad press for the facility but ultimately the employee is at fault. I dont think it really takes a whole lot of training to make chicken breasts and throw a whole turkey in the oven and steam some broccoli or other equally simple meals they regularly feed the residents. i havent even cooked in a restaurant and i managed this >>12165049


>>12165106
these people eat out 100% of the time, or eat frozen food you heat up. the whole family besides the dad works there, their dad has been on beetusbux for years and was bragging to me about how they just kicked up the payout. they have literally never cooked before and it shows in that pic related.

>if a male daycare employee fondles a kid its gonna be bad press for the facility but ultimately the employee is at fault

not necessarily. it's certainly possible that the owner can be held liable for negligence for improperly supervising or training the employee. the employee who actually committed the abuse is certainly going to be held liable, but it's quite likely that others will be on the hook too.

and "bad press" can be a HUGE problem. Hell, these days all it takes is for the rumor of something to go viral and someone can get turbofucked even if they didn't actually do anything wrong at all.

eh at any rate every other part of the facility has always been exceptional. they just made a mistake trusting idiot nurses to cook and it was rectified immediately after i showed my boss that pic. especially compared to the other options for adult care in my area, these people are living well and im not gonna put the facility on blast plus lose my job over these people getting one exceptionally shitty dinner.

>>12165196
thats better than most places around here get. the cooks at most tax funded facilities here probably wouldnt be allowed to work in a school cafeteria.

>>12165211
it was immediately rectified by the nurses being banned from the kitchen. what more can they do, they hired cooks. cant reverse a mistake thats been made. also i didnt say nobody, those fucking moronic gutter inbred nurses are entirely at fault for 1. being fucking stupid as shit and 2. not caring about these people enough to throw that shit away and make something decent

what is management just gonna stand over and watch people right behind them all day? this isnt some unionized company with supervisors n shit

>>12165231
im actually maitenance, i just havent had alot of maint work to do so they let me cook and keep cooking because i did well and enjoy it. its a very small place compared to yours i guarentee it, maybe 15 residents per building, x2 buildings max - and we are only like 25% full. its an expensive ass place too, big ass windows and crown moulding in every room, huge flatscreens etc. so it doesnt take as much as youd think to do a meal service. i literally wait tables, bus tables, do the dishes AND cook the food during meal time. 0 assistance. the nurses are supposed to help me but as you can imagine i insisted they just stay the fuck out of my way.

>Admin decides that nursing staff will have to also cook on weekends despite them literally having no time even though they're caring for 'ma and 'pa as fast and shitty as possible
>After enough blacklast / people complaining to the ombudsman / threatening to go to the state management finally decides to rehire a couple of the illegal immigrants to work in the kitchen

There's one very sweet woman in our memory care unit who supposedly used to be a model and you can tell she was hot when she was young. She's fucked and at least kissed several male residents. And there was this weird period of time when another female resident was sleeping in her bed with her.
There's a real nice dude with Parkinson's in our assisted living side who barely talks but grabbed my nurse coworker's ass and tit. She's got a nice shape and big black titties and homeboy must like the dark chocolate.
Had this very peculiar woman in assisted who, when I and a coworker walked in to her room for the first time, looked me up and down and said, "ooo, well I'm glad you're talking care of me tonight," in this disgusting trying-to-be-seductive New Jersey accent. She also shoved paper towels and those little tooth flosser things up her cooch and then wanted us to go fishing.

I was the one who was so young at the time I didn't think to just call 911 and ran upstairs to my parents first when she started not feeling good. She passed in the ambulance on her way to the hospital. If anyone were to have served her OP pic at a home or treat her shit I'd rain hellfire over them.

I hate our generation for that man, boomers could make it without having to deal with all that BS, but our generation people are sooo full of themselves because they manage to get a little piece of paper that certifies them in something. They throw all reason and logic out the window the second they see their printed name on that line in the center of the a paper with a fancy border around it and assume that any training or work put in to advance yourself that you didn't get a certificate to show off to everybody you did it goes out the window and doesn't matter.

dudes this is why we used to live in multi-generational homes with extended families.
children were how you used to retire.

This jew trick of giving away your savings to other people so they can have fun making money off your money just so you can boot your children out with no support as soon as it is legal to do so and plan to "retire" independently at the end of life is hairbrained.
Old age catches you then and if you manage to survive, you end up equally abandoned by your offspring and being served garbage by no-brained no-cooking skill millenial nurses until you die.

don't end up like that

Eh, if someone gets a few drops of piss on their bed pad (the absorbent fabric thing that goes under someone who wears a diaper to bed) the vast majority of us (me included) will "idgaf" instead of changing it. It's just not worth disturbing the resident that much (which would involve rolling them side to side more than is absolutely necessary) instead of letting them rest. Other than that trivial thing, we really provide superb care at our facility and pull no stops in caring for our people.
>Are any protocols advertised to the family, and then regularly swept under the rug?
Not that I know of on our (the nursing) end. There are assessments done by the director of nursing (who is a lazy cunt, tbdesu) and the assistant director of nursing but even though some applicants are CLEARLY nursing home candidates or are straight up ON HOSPICE(we're an assisted living facility), they end up being admitted anyways. Many of us believe that this is because of our marketing/sales executive who has ties to corporate. Money is king, essentially, and the ones who bear the brunt of misplaced residents is the nursing staff. Trust me, if our facility was actually and strictly "assisted living" then my job would be a fucking cakewalk. Instead, a large chunk of my shift is taking care of hospice and should-be-hospice residents who have shit hospice services that don't send fucking hospice aides to sit with and care for their dying clients.
Healthcare industry is all fucked up, yo.

That seemed like an absurd question to me so I looked it up.
Turns out "nurse" doesn't mean you have at least a bachelor's degree in nursing in the US. Hm!
No wonder this thread is full of stories about nurses being lazy and unqualified shits.

School. You can go to a trade school and become a CNA, which is what the retirement home wagies ITT mostly are. I don't know how much they get per year, maybe $30,000-40,000?

You make $30,000 a year with a high school diploma. Nurses make $30/hr+, 50k a year if they do 12 hour shifts 3 days a week. They're basically retired and working at the same time with 4 days off a week.

I was talking about CNAs, not nurses. Nurses make a shit ton of money. It's a legit great career if you can stand the work.

do you need a degree for that? or AA? or can you just go to a trade school

You need a nursing degree to become a Nurse.

You can do a small trade program to become a Nursing Assistant.

True. Our LPNs make $24/hour which is quite good for the amount of schooling involved. The only downsides are the stress of work and frequently working past quitting time.

I wasn't even thinking of LPNs, more RNs.

CNA $30,000~ -- mostly shitty wagie job, usually to rack up hours and resume to later become a nurse in one's mid 20s or 30s.

LPN $45,000-60,0000 -- true assistant to a physician or nurse, they don't seem to do much except take vitals, ask you questions, etc.

RN -- $60,000-80,0000. A true nurse that can run her own practice, actually prescribe medication, etc.

>no fault of the facility
It is absolutely their fucking fault if they have zero standards for hiring caretakers, tolerate abuse of their patients, and don't improve when complaints are made. Bad fruit comes from bad soil.

He's right though. My grandfather got on the "meals on wheels" program and a black guy was trying to deliver food to him and he said, "get off my porch, niggah" and slammed the door in his face. They called my mom and sjaid he was out of the program. He was committed to a govt. nursing home shortly thereafter, where Tyrone, Jamal and Shaneeka were ubiquitous. He sure showed them, lol!
