Six accuse Select Specialty Hospital of race bias - Topix | Thread profile

I am a nurse for SSH in the midwest and I am hoping that the person who made this comment isn't a nurse. I would hate to know that other nurses could be so cruel and unprofessional. This is sad. I became a nurse to make a difference, isn't what we do supposed to be about the patient. If laughing at fools is an actual nurse then you need to go back to the basics. You know NURSING 101; then you need to GROW UP! We are nurses for god...

We're fairly new, only a few years old, but our patients and their families are very pleased with the care we give and the compassion that we show. I myself have great relationships with the families of my patients and the patients themselves. I stumbled across this site and...

Seems they are getting rid of more people that I guess knew too much. Or at least thats what a "little Birdie" at that Select has been telling. FYI you don't have to be the employer to turn in someone of suspected drug abuse to the board.

So is Select in Lexington still at it? I worked their when it opened in October 02 resigned in July 03 due to the Director of Clinical Services.

It is most sad and unfortunate that it's often management that sets the standards for behavior. It seems that Select Specialty Hospital accepts the treatment of these nurses and aides as normal and acceptable. I think their true "select specialty" is racism rather than outstanding health care. I hope that anyone who has contributing information that will support these lawsuits will show courage and do the right thing by...

I was there for approx 3 years, the last year I was there 05-06 there was no racial bias From this company. There were racial comments made that should have not been made from some employees somtimes I wonder what people are thinking when things like that come out of their mouths. I know these employees were disciplined . I also know that they were placed on probation and told they would be fired if any other comments were made, even if it was...

I also worked at this Select and what these women say happened, NEVER happened. They were trouble makers and if you happen to check into a couple of the ladies past, you will see that this is the reputation of at least two of them. Its a scam to get money that's all it is plain and simple. The pretty much "dared" anyone to say anything to them after they made sure that everyone KNEW about their little lawsuit. AND Select...
