IF a company has the time to change the schedule shown to their Patients, THEY OBVIOUSLY HAVE THE TIME TO CALL THE PATIENTS.
NOT BEACON COMMUNITY SERVICES THOUGH.
It is very obvious to me, that Beacon Community Services hasn’t a clue about how to manage its workers, its Patients, and that VIHA should NOT RENEW the contract …
It is an interesting side note, to the way Beacon Community Services deals with its Patients. They provide a schedule, to their Patients so they can supposedly know who is going to be attending.
IN THEORY that is a nice tool to have. It lets us know who is coming, and if there are changes, well, …

She’s been here once before, and not much has changed with her. She is an older home support worker, but frankly, not what I’d call a Great Worker. She is in a rush, and has a rather hard sounding tone to her voice, that isn’t exactly comforting, or soothing in any way. Nor does it …

And unlike Monday’s little General, this one was nice, pleasant, and a treat to be around. She had been here before, back in the summer when Mom had a cast on, and she seemed to remember that, which helped. Course, it seems that the information …
Well, least this one seems to be more friendly than Monday’s little Tyrant.
