Hillsborough County Dev Center

RUN away from this place. There are some excellent DSPs but most of them are lazy, rude and disrespectful. I heard stories of staff bringing guns to work to threaten others, I witnessed 7-10 call-offs a day from DSPs leaving the house shorthanded (so residents received subpar care), I witnessed staff threatening other staff in front of residents, I bathed two residents as RS because the DSPs refused to do their job, I witnessed nurses being berated by DSPs and residents were ignored by DSPs... it was bad. I truly believe there are some wonderful workers but the atmosphere is toxic and the residents suffer. The DSPs run the place... management tries to implement policies but DSPs know they have the power. They call off and show up late.

Horrible
Dec 25th, 2017

(Translated by Google) I was hired as DSP. Take a long training with Nora (Human Resources) and with the new co-workers. In that course, I learned that I am pregnant, I had a bleeding and my doctor sent me to rest for two days. I send the evidence to Jari Rivera (Human Resources) to which he tells me to return when there were no complications. Days later, the doctor removed the restrictions and again I try to communicate with Jari Rivera via email and calls to notify him what the doctor told me. All this without any response from her. Weeks later I manage to talk to her (I sent her many emails and I called her several times) and she tells me that she had invited me to another training and that I never went. This is a lie because he never told me anything about that. I ask her if I can return to work and she tells me that she would talk to her boss and let me know. I've been waiting for your answer for weeks, I've called, I've left voice messages and they never answer. I guess they will not call me because I'm pregnant. That is not done! If they do not want me to work with them, they have to say it and not keep quiet, making me wait. Moral: Never work there. The salary for being DSP is very miserable and they have no consideration for one having previous studies. I feel like I was discriminated against because I was pregnant. I will take legal action on this. I was hired as DSP. Take a long training with Nora (Human Resources) and with the new co-workers.

En ese transcurso, me entero de que estoy embarazada, tuve un sangrado y mi doctor me manda a descansar por dos días. Le envío la evidencia a Jari Rivera (Recursos Humanos) a lo que me responde que volviera cuando no tuviera complicaciones. Días después el doctor me quitó las restricciones y nuevamente me trato de comunicar con Jari Rivera vía email y llamadas para notificarle lo que me dijo el doctor. Todo esto sin ninguna respuesta de parte de ella. Semanas después logro hablar con ella (le envié muchos correos electrónicos y la llamé en varias ocasiones) y ella me dice que me había invitado a otro entrenamiento y que yo nunca fui. Esto es mentira porque nunca me hablo nada sobre eso. Le pregunto que si puedo reincorporarme al trabajo y ella me dice que hablaría con su jefe y me dejaría saber. Ya llevo semanas esperando su respuesta, he llamado, he dejado mensajes de voz y nunca contestan. Supongo que no me llamarán porque estoy embarazada. Eso no se hace! Si no quieren que trabaje con ellos, tienen que decirlo y no quedarse callados haciéndome esperar. Moraleja: Nunca trabajen allí. El sueldo por ser DSP es muy miserable y no tienen ninguna consideración por uno tener estudios previos. Siento que me discriminaron por estar embarazada. Tomaré acción legal sobre esto.
