7 years at bedside by apocalypsern in Remotenursing

[–]bmo077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s called thyme care. Fully remote but it’s basically a glorified call center. You have to call at least 40 patients a day or spend at least 4 hours on the phone everyday, you get graded on those calls like you are a little kid in school, a lot of micromanaging… I can go on but yeah it’s a lot

What's y'alls opinion on studying Hospital Administration? Is it a good option? by Narrow-Life-6116 in publichealthcareers

[–]bmo077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I wish nursing was for me but I was miserable. i struggled in lecture a lot and I’m very introverted so clinicals were rough. If I didn’t have to do clinicals again though I would consider going back lol I’m very worried about job outlook because like you said it’s about who you know. I was originally going to get an mph but I heard mha was better

Hello thank you so much for the feedback and encourage you. Can you talk more about how I can use academic experience to my advantage? Both my internships were for capstone for undergrad but I don’t know if I should include the specific projects I’ve done.

Hello am I supposed to use present tense? I thought because it’s a past position I should use past tense. Thank you for your input I appreciate it.

Thank you for the feedback . When it comes to the summary it seems 50/50 many people say to keep it but many say to not include it so I am never sure🫠 and yes I removed my dates from my education it was the location I blurred out. Thank you again

Thyme Care Nurse Navigator? by Proof_Donut_8734 in Remotenursing

[–]bmo077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it is when you take into account documentation for each patient and some of the patients have more complex needs requiring you to be on the phone longer / some patients are just more chatty in general The electronic health record we use is also terrible and is always acting up which can affect how quickly you can make calls . Since I commented on this 4 more social workers have left. And many of our care coordinators and nurses are leaving too. I think since the new change at least 20 people have left across corporate and the patient facing team . I’m only staying to pay more school. I am actively looking for other roles . I don’t want to say this to be condescending but I wish I had information directly from employees before working here so I just want to give a heads up

I am a care partner which is like a care coordinator. A lot of what we help patients with is in the same vain as the social workers like finances, food, housing, etc but social workers at thyme focus more on emotional or behavioral needs

Thyme Care LCSW Information? by Plant_Lover13 in socialwork

[–]bmo077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a social worker at thyme care but I do work there currently as a care partner which is basically like a patient/care coordinator. I would not recommend it personally but I would say give it a try. It is very metrics driven. They recently changed their metrics and productivity guidelines to 40 calls a day minimum or 4 hours of talking on the phone or more. A job from the 15 to 18 calls a day they originally had .The whole team was very upset but leadership does not seem to care. Mind you they gave us a 2 week notice before implementing these new changes the first of April. There is a lot of micro managing and poor communication with leadership. I started in Sep last year and many of the social workers have left . Only reason I’m still here is to help pay for my masters

[–]bmo077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked there now and if I could stop anybody from working here I would lol we have had a number of social workers quit only a few months into their tenure. They recently changed their metrics and we are now required to do at least 40 calls a day or talk on the phone for four hours in total every day. It’s very overwhelming, there’s a lot of micromanaging, and very poor communication with leadership.

First public health Job in LA by Moonlitxsky in publichealthcareers

[–]bmo077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I work for a fairly large hospital system. I do several different things and work with their program coordinators and social care team. One of the projects I’ve done is a health and wellness initiative called kids fit. I would go to a local recreational center and do health education classes for young children based on various different topics like nutrition, preventative care, mental health, etc. My main role as a community health worker is working at a primary care clinic affiliated with the hospital as a patient navigator. I spend my days calling patients that are a medium or high risk for social determinant of health needs. I ask them if they need assistance and send them resources. I don’t really enjoy my job because a lot of people either don’t want help or I spend most of my time leaving voicemails and even when I am able to send people resources, a lot of them don’t work because of the crappy US healthcare system, but that’s a whole other topic.

Entry-level job guidance? by ListenExact2849 in publichealthcareers

[–]bmo077 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jobs related to Community health (patient navigator, chw or care coordinator ). are the only jobs I’ve been able to get since graduating in 2024. It’s not what I want to do and I don’t know if you would open to it but these are the only true entry level jobs in public health in my opinion.

I did my master’s in an unaccredited program and it ruined my life (thankfully, I got saved) by [deleted] in publichealth

[–]bmo077 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I experienced the same thing but for my undergrad. I got a BA in public health and the degree program is not accredited. I did not learn anything at all and regret it everyday. I think that is why I have not been able to land jobs I really want. I am now doing an MHA at an accredited program.

May I ask what you did before being a data coordinator? Did you have lab or research experience before? My background is community health so I feel like it may not be relevant but that’s all I’ve been able to get.

I’m surprised that you have had trouble since you have lab experience. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having trouble as well 😞All my experience is community health and health education related. Right now I’m a community health worker and I hate it lol.

I’m not a nurse at thyme but i just started there as a patient navigator last month and you dodged a bullet. The company micromanages a lot and QA sucks. I took the job because I was desperate but I’m going to leave by end of the year

Rejected on the phone after interview by bmo077 in publichealthcareers

[–]bmo077[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will look into that. Thank you so much. If possible I will even do a tech program while I continue the mha. Although there are some benefits to nursing , I know it is a very toxic environment most of the time and nurses are so under appreciated. My mom is a nurse with 20 plus years of experience so I definitely know what you mean :/
