Enjoyed working with the kids. Management does not support or train staff or supervise employees. - Cottage Parent Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches Employee Review

Lack of leadership!! No clear treatment goals other then food and a bed. Kids would get booted out of the cottage in the morning and have to sleep in their car due to the cottage parents want to go shopping together and no one else scheduled to work. This youth went to school, was honor roll and worked a job. No continuity in care between Cottage parents, relief parents or Shift workers. Cottage parents come back on duty and house is a mess and kids are upset they have to fo their chores, clean their room and do their homework. Shift workers come in and play games on their phone and collect a paycheck. Meanwhile cottage parents work 16 hours a day 14 days straight. It's obvious why Cottage parents leave. Admin does nothing about the situation because they don't want anyone to quit or they will have to do the job. The kids move cottage to cottage and are uprooted time after time multiple times a year. Staff and rules change week to week. They deserve more stability. I would love to give a glowing review, but can't in good conscience. I've seen it work much better at other group homes.
