Metrics are More Important than Patient Health
 

AnonymousMar 31, 2015

...the same unfair criminal practice happened to me back in Las Vegas 2010,the vice president of operations for the whole District made up a special metric system just for me because I questioned in a big meeting when he he announced all pharmacist are expected to, on their days off, to go out, no reimbursement ,procure and work to generate flu shot clinics saying it was part of the job description when we got hired. He then forced me to sign a special document, that no other R.Ph had to sign, saying I had to meet metrics of 95% across the board, and that I was going to be reevaluated every two weeks and if I did not meet those metrics, I would than be rated as "not meeting expectations". I than got ahold of HR who got the document dismissed, but I was forced to quit because superiors started coming in once a week 'writing' me up, for example a dirty sink, due to a few smudges. Doing more than 600 rx's a day as well as immunizing,no overlap coverage, they than cut my tech grid weekly from 325 hr to 175,20% reduction every week. Unfair labor practices permeate this whole organization.
