Center for Life Management Reviews

The pay is low and the hours are long. Management is constantly adding to the list of tasks and responsibilities of clinicians. The productivity expectation is unrealistic for all, but most difficult for those serving the severely and persistently mentally ill population. There is no help from support staff, though medical staff have nurses to field their phone calls, transcriptionists for their dictation and secretaries do their scheduling. The new office building in Derry is incredibly cold in all seasons except summer, making working conditions difficult. The old building has not been sold but is not in use, so taxes have to be paid on that. There is a new Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation machine that was invested in, but gets little business. Money is spent on a full-time facilities mgr, full-time maintenance person, part-time cleaning crew, landscapers, window cleaners, and a part-time upholstery cleaner -- quite a crew for a small, non-profit, community mental health center.
