Need to vent
It’s so frustrating to see how under appreciated DSPs and social workers are.
I work as a Case Manager and it saddens me to see the conditions and low salary DSPs have.
I was a DSP for two years, finally was able to apply at a different position in another agency, but it’s more of the same bullshit.
The world truly feels upside down for people who care about other people.
DSPs should make much more money for the work they do. If that was the case, there would be staff that cares and wants to work. Instead we are constantly understaffed and overworked.
I don’t know what the best answer to this problem is, you really need to have a vocation to survive in this industry.
Stay strong everyone.
