This morning an emergency staff meeting was called while I was on shift. Everyone on duty meet together with our boss-lady, who was looking rather somber. Turns out, a resident is missing $10,000 dollars from their suite. Ten freakin' thousand big ones. All a sudden I feel as if I am working in a zoo!!!!! What happened to order in a seniors home?!
She continued to tell us that the police are involved and an investigation is underway. All of the staff have to be interviewed too. Which is going to fabulous, seeing how I see this certain resident every single shift, twice or more every time. Greeeaaattttt.
I'm not sure why a resident would leave this much cash in thier suite, but hey - it's supposed to be a home! But what is concerning is how large the 'suspect' pool is: everyone working has a key to all the suites (this includes care aides, cleaning ladies, kitchen helpers, cooks, & maintenance men), delivery guys are allowed up, taxi drivers, friends, family, and so on and on and on and on. And all the other residents too! Goodness me. What a mess.
Imagine seeing that much cash just laying around (yes, it was cash - apparently in 20's, 50's, & 100's too). Would it even be possible to just shove it in your pocket and leave?? But first - how could anyone with a conscious do that?!?!?!?!
What a crazy day.
