Problems At Dove Pointe In Salisbury Keep Adding Up


Car 943.

We know you are supposed to TRUST organizations to take care of the special needs clientele. However, this particular employee should not be considered for employee of the month. 

Driving one of their clients down the road while talking and yes even texting while driving just doesn't cut it. Pictures do NOT lie.

The cops are still doing it, and getting away with it too.

I will assume your statement is correct, but can you point out, from the picture, how I would know this is a Dove Point car and driver. What ever vehicle it is, using a hand held cell phone while driving is against the law.

That place ALWAYS has shady people working for them i seen several months ago a black couple come out of a Known drug location so i happened to be going the same way as them then i see them pull int Dove Point, time for some drug testing?

It is not only the law but a policy of Dove Pointe that you are not to use cell phone while driving. If you have an emergency you are to pull over to use your phone. The problem is the employees total disregard for policies and the law. All vehicles have an assigned number on them and have navtrac installed. Dove Pointe goes above and beyond to ensure the safety of the individuals but unfortunately some employees push the limits and feel they won't get caught. The agency appreciates anytime a concerned citizen reports anything that they feel is endangering the individuals they care for. Thank you to whomever reported this and rest assured Dove Pointe will handle this matter.

Cops are exempt, so they are "getting away" with nothing.

Worse yet, someone took a picture with their cell phone of someone talking on a cell phone. SMH

*Exempt while on duty and calls must be work-related!!* you can't call all your buddies while you're driving just because you're in a police car. But who's gonna police the police....

Police are not exempt from rules on window tinting and they still have illegal tint on their windows.

cops are exempt, even when they are off duty and in their cars with their families? that seems a bit unfair.

How about the problem is over legislation of our lives. I think that most people can use a phone and drive.

Given all the people in this country that own cars and phones I bet 100% of them have taken a call while driving. And of those people how many had an accident. The number is likely very small.

Think for yourselves.

This place just keeps popping up doesn't it?

The problem is everyone can post anything they want and they will continue to expand and no one will do anything but gripe.

No griping here, there is one big, fat head needed to fall and should have long ago...C P, you listening??

Well damn....keep them coming! Maybe someone from the state other than the person they are paying off will see the bullshit and hand out citations...tThis is getting to be ridiculous!

Anonymous said...

Maybe even shut them down...I've never seen so many roaches in my life there!

What they fail to realize is that if you treat your staff like crap...Their work ethic will be crappy! You can't treat or talk to people any kind of way and think they're going to be excited to work for you! Employee of the month is the most financial action one gets working at Dove Pointe. You get what a 25.00 gift card?? This is one of the most under rated, under paid and most unappreciated jobs out here. It's not fair to the consumers or staff. The turn over rates are beyond ridiculous!
