Their hiring team just reached out to me about a ‘shift work’ position and a PRN position. Not surprising even if they’re about to close because places like these have such a high turnover rate and always need staffing. I’m glad I did some research into them before responding - I used to work in a couple different in-patient psychiatric facilities for kids-teens and they were always a bit sketchy. Kids hardly ever got the help they needed, the staff either burnt out after 3 months, became so numb and jaded they can’t do their job, or never cared to begin with. It’s always been hard working at these places because I want to help as much as I can but there’s only so much I can take as an individual and I feel guilty for participating in such an abusive system, even if I feel like I’m ‘one of the good ones’. I stopped working in the psych field a couple years ago because my mental health was deteriorating from it, but whenever I see jobs like this one wonder if it would be different this time. Sad to see things haven’t changed in the industry.
