Morningstar Assisted Living of Rapid City Reviews
Lee
I have noticed that there are significant challenges in collaborating with a specific team member during the night shift. Concerns have been raised about her leadership style and communication, which have led to discomfort among the staff. Several colleagues have shared their reasons for wanting to switch shifts, emphasizing the negative impact this situation has had on their work environment.It is disheartening to feel unable to voice concerns and advocate for a respectful workplace. It is essential to foster an environment where all employees can express themselves without fear of reprisal, in line with fundamental human rights principles. Professionalism and respect must be upheld to ensure a positive and productive atmosphere for everyone involved.Additionally, there have been instances of discrimination based on religion, which is against healthcare policy. Unfortunately, it feels as though there is little opportunity to speak up at Morning Star. There was also dishonesty regarding the pay rate; I was offered $17 per hour, but my pay stub showed only $16. Furthermore, the manager has issued threats and has misled employees about qualifications, such as requiring a high school diploma, which is deceptive.I have found the manager to be unprofessional and rude, frequently changing her story and lying about various matters. After I quit, she spoke about me to her mother and fabricated information, something my neighbor confirmed. This behavior is harmful and shows a lack of integrity.I also believe there is a significant difference between discussing residents and addressing the behavior of the staff and management. Confidentiality regarding residents must be respected, while the actions of the staff cannot go unaddressed. In my view, the manager exhibits characteristics that are deeply concerning.
