I worked for this BAD BAD PLACE   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #30 of 371 |
I worked for this company and it was the BIGGEST mistake that I have
ever made and it seems to haunt me over and over again.

I was suppose to work for LVI as front desk/receptionist on a mobile
unit. I took this job for the chance to travel and see the world.
Instead, I was forced to do pre and post of on patients and I had NO
MEDICAL training! YES NONE. This is where my problem began. I was
in NJ on a trip and as usual, LVI was low on staff. The person in
charge AMY WHITE basically wanted me to do pre/post op on patients.
I told her that I was VERY UNCOMFORTABLE doing this since I had NO
medical training. She said to me, "Are you saying that you do not
want to help us out? Are you saying that you want us to send you
home." I was in shock and being in a BAD financial status I had no
choice but to stay. Now that I think of it NO MONEY could even come
close to having me work for somewhere like that. I ended up catching
an infectious disease which I believe I caught from a patient.
Stupid me did not know the importance of wearing gloves and being
untrained about infectious diseases did not know how to prevent
getting them. I am now so afraid that I could have gotten any other
number of diseases and now I get disease tested frequenly just out of
peace of mind. Especially since on this mobile unit there was never
any running water so FORGET about washing your hands.

I myself reported this company to OSHA. And they are investigating
them. I guess that I am the only one that has reported them to OSHA
so please if you have also worked there do everyone a favor and
REPORT THIS COMPANY.
Please have some morals. You can prevent bad things from happening
to others by trying to have them shut down. Restaraunts are more
regulated than this place.

I am so sorry for anyone that has has bad things happen to them
because of this comany and for anyone who turned out ok TRUST ME YOU
ARE LUCKY! I saw what happened and I know how BAD this company is.
Please help in trying to put an end to this company!
Write to politicians, the board of doctors (report the doctors one by
one), write to your news channels and newspapers.
