What should a new supervisor do in this group home?
Asked by Speed, Madness, Flying Saucers
I just started a job as a supervisor in a group home for MR adult males. Immediately, once on line, I saw that the GH would not pass a medicaid audit, at least 3 staff are having their wages garnished and one managed to get a ticket for driving with a suspended license before having her 3rd car repossed last Saturday. My supervisor is nepotistic in that she hired her slutty niece to be an overnight. The supervisor herself sem-resides at the GH because she and her daughter live in a two room, unairconditioned former motel, and as if that isn't enough, while the 5 residents are away at their day program, the supervisor lets her clueless sister with 5 young children (she has an additional five that are grown, I kid you not) not only hang at the house, but eat some of the food. This is just what I can think of right now. On a scale of one to ten, how badly have I stepped in doo doo with these curious people who live on the fringes of respectability and professionalism?

Best Answer:
It sounds like you need to turn around and RUN out the door. I'm not even going to try and convince you to be a HERO.

Get out NOW!!!!! Find a new job if possible. Sounds like they don't know how to run things
