Pros

At this point in time, I have nothing positive to say about becoming an employee at Caron. As one long-time employee put it to a friend inquiring about employment there: "Don't come here. The staff are sicker than the patients." I do not believe this is true of all staff, but that statement does apply to many there.

Cons

Where shall I begin? I could run down a long laundry list of abuses of staff, mostly psychological abuse, not to mention violation of state and federal law, but until someone has the courage and resources to step up to the plate and act as whistle-blower, this will only continue. Caron has lost sight of its mission to help patients, but is more concerned with the almighty dollar. If you examine the facility's day-to-day operations, you would never recognize it as a not-for-profit facility. The authorities who issued Caron this status need to revisit their licensing.
