  2. Why don't any of these people have the guts to sign their names. if you are going to call people names than you should not be able to do it anonymously. I would think that Joe Albero would require this.

    It is very easy for you to talk about having "guts". If you work at PRMC and you refuse to look the other way or cover things up you are putting yourself at considerable risk for retribution. Everyone knows it (except you). I am not condoning insubordination or throwing insults but if you dare speak up about anything you see at the hospital that is wrong, improper, unethical or dare question senior management at PRMC you will be fired! It has nothing to do with "guts" but it does have everything to do with self preservation. Ask any employee how PRMC deals with people who speak up! Threats are just a way of life. Mr. Foxwell, with all due respect, you need to understand the realities of life at PRMC!

  5. Mr. Gary, wouldn't you guess that if an employee expressed dissatisfaction and used their name, they would be first to get laid off?

  6. It is a shame the community is left in the dark by all the intimidation & threats & retaliation that has been going pn for years @ PRMC. & again no one can speak up, question, or sign their name because the price is so high.

  7. Thank goodness for a public forum where the people can expose wrongdoing and corruption anonymously. Thank you Joe for giving some small amount of power to the little people. Keep up the good work.

  10. If the people who work at PRMC don't like it they need to find another job. This is their business, not mine. I don't come on here and cry about my company's freeze on raised and working conditions, because that is my business, not yours. If I feel I am being treated unfairly I will move on, period. The poster states that they "heard" layoffs were coming. Heard from who? Management? Grapevine? More drama and whining is what I see. Get on with it, suck it up or quit.

  12. Joe, thank you for allowing us to have a voice and for helping us to expose some of the many concerns that we have as employees of PRMC. I can't help but to think that is why out of the clear blue sky, some employees received pay increases.

  13. Gary is just some punk that doesn't understand the value of annonymity. If he had any intelligence, he would know that the founding fathers of this great country used it to great effect in many oppostion publications. Sadly, Gary doesn't have the cognitive skills to assemble this type of conclusion. Duh.

  14. usually when layoffs happen in a business the last hired go. This is not the case at PRMC.

    RNs get a raise, Everyone was cut their annual pay raise once again this year but the RNs. All was short two PTO days for the next Fiscal Year.
    A hiring freeze has been in the works for many months prior to July 1st. however, RNs and upper management (performance Improvement TEAM, and other high paid salary individuals ) have been hired since the CUT BACKS.
    Since the census is LOW (patient admit counts) why do we need more nurses, more higher paid staff members on TEAMS to sit around and discuss strategy for what PRMC doesn't have?
    Employees have been given and urged to use, Waste Control Alert.

    I would like to suggest that the TEAMS look around the rooms they meet in and see which team member, if not all, should be cut to save money in Salaries. Rest asure, if two high paid TEAM members were cut that would save a few job that are really needed. For instance, Maintenance, Transport, Food and Nutrition, Dietitians.... Yes we need RNs, but not as many as we have and the numbers that are being hired or advertised at this time. IF all the smaller wages people are layoff, who will take care of feeding the patients, transporting the patients to each department for tests through out their stay?

    Again the HIGHER PAID TEAM MEMBERS are not trained or available to do any other jobs that are patient related. The Executive Team is too busy with publicity stunts that try to make PRMC look like it is an organization worth something. ALl you have to do is check out the RATINGS that just came out.

    A new sign was just HUNG on the building on Friday. How much did that COST? It says PRMS was Recognized... it doesn't say RANKED... because PRMS wasn't ranked for anything in the Medical Field. PRMC was recognized with 21 other Regional hospitals. PRMS was one of the 8 that tied for 21st ranking for Cardiac services. Now that is something to be proud of. Out of three hospitals in the same Region, PMC did not RANK at all with the competing Medical organizations.

    Good Going PRMC.... save a buck and Don't advertise.

  15. It's our business because PRMC is supposed to be serving us, the community. What kind of service compromise do you think will be made when these layoffs are in place? The leadership doesn't seem to be doing a very good job and they are very well compensated for bad results. Fewer and fewer doctors at our smaller local practices have hospital privileges, our anesthesia groups are out. Fewer and fewer choices and an aggregation of power that seems counter to high quality health care.
