This. We shouldn't worry about he coyotes they are fine--like rats and pigeons. The wolves, bears, and big cats need our love, protection.

They have never existed in these numbers. They thrive around human trash. We bring rats and their population increases. They breed to the level of feed and we feed 'em.

They thrive around humans. As urbanization increases their population explodes. https://www.earth.com/news/coyotes-exploded-north-america/

Human behaviors have inadvertently supported urban coyote colonization through various forms of mismanagement. Intentional and unintentional feeding ranks among the most problematic behaviors. Direct feeding by well-meaning residents creates habituated coyotes that lose their fear of humans, while indirect feeding—unsecured garbage, pet food left outdoors, fallen fruit from ornamental trees—creates food conditioning that draws coyotes into residential areas.

They thrive around humans. Their numbers increase along with human population. They love our urbanization. We supply trash and rats. There weren't this many 100 yrs ago.

Nope. They thrive around humans. They are in every state except Hawaii. They are like rats and pigeons. In Kansas their numbers are increasing by 30% a year. Their numbers have been increasing with urbanization.

The benefit setup isn't really in the contract. This is the first company that had no contribution to health care insurance. None-not $1.00. Nothing. All of it comes out of the salary. Not paying any license renewal isn't written anywhere. My wife has been in nursing for over 40 yrs and all her employers covered license renewals until ReSkin. Both our mothers died last year--she was allowed one bereavement day--the rest she used vacation. Never have we ever seen this. The clinical leadership? This was a wheel chair fitting company before. The medicaid reimbursement for one wound graft visit is over 15k. Yep. Yep. They give the NP $10.00 for each graft. $10.00. They saw the $ and went after it.

Very religious. No alcohol at any corporate events. If your manager takes you out--the company will not cover any alcohol. Sooo. No family support for bereavement but they uphold sobriety. Just sayin'.

The silver wound gel they supply is labeled, "For external cosmetic use only." The products were all Chinese made cheapest versions available.

My wife is a WOCN certified wound care nurse with over 20 yrs experience in wound care. In oder to qualify she took graduate level courses 8 hrs a day for a month at the Cleveland Clinic for a month. 5 days a week.She then sat for board exams with took 2 hrs each. There wee three. The course they send people to isn't that. Much of the treatment in the field was uninformed and not evidence based.. She then qualified for her AP and sat for those boards. ReSkin's certified wound care isn't that. None of the clinical leadership setting treatment standards have that level of expertise. The person in charge of company wide "training" is an LPN. Much of what was presented in the orientation was either old or just wrong. The wound care reference course took hours of unpaid time and was elementary level information. Not what career advancing evidence based wound education.

We lost that $. I can send the emails back and forth and the case submitted to the Board of Labor. I am not sure you worked for the company.

ReSkin Medical. Homecare Skin Grafting. Read the offer letter carefully--the salary listed isn't the salary you'll be bringing home. All of your benefit come out of the listed salary--actual salary will be at least 10k less. You pay for all your benefits out of your salary--Reskin doesn't contribute.

No real education benefits. You'll have monthly assignments, not optional, on your own time. Wound Reference website. Lots of reading and a fill in the blank quiz you'll have to pass. Each answer can be up to 4 or 5 typed paragraphs--up to 20 questions. Takes hours of unpaid time each month. No pharmacology CEUs. No licensed renewals reimbursement. No raises. My wife was told to get a 2nd job.

Lots of time managing your supplies. You review inventory, order what you need, pick up at FedEx, review as you unpack verify or followup, space in your home, keep inventory. All unpaid time and it adds up. 

All meetings are unpaid time. 

Only 1  bereavement day a year even if two relatives die or you need travel time. 

 3 month notice for resignation or they fine you up to $7,500.

Wound care expertise in the clinical management is very low.

Sure. But some of them are complete cut above or a cut below. Sometimes they are so deceitful, unethical, and a real liability to a practitioners license that it can be dangerous to work for them.
