BARBRA STREISAND + UJA + FEGS
I. - My Majestic Mother passed (well over 100 years old) December 2005 and I have raised monies, promoting positives causes re UJA + UJA of New York. Barbra Streisand a natural UJA stauncher have of course done the same.
So it is extremely amazing NYC FEGS- Jerome Avenue (starting with Montefiore 12/05) have consistantly and consciously disrepect my more than Pristine Maternal Royal Heritage.
The staff have promoted antagonism; physical harrassment and verbal threats. Extremely unbecoming!
9/29/08 - The eve of Rosh Hashanah - UJA's NYC FEGS IPRT Jerome Avenue. The client's Consumer Government Group selected and decided to show a movie commemorating the Jewish Holiday.
I'm the advisor; ist serving as vice-president (then unknowingly and never acknowledged by the administration or told by them - serving as acting president + minutes taker) . The CGG's and community decision approved by the heads to show the after program movie "NUTS". Past after program films-well attended, successful and therapeutic.
Actually the after program event was scheduled for last week and postponed until Monday 9/30/08. Each month a theme or holiday movie selected.
September's choice "NUTS" - not because I was involved with the pre-production but because dah. . . the movie deals with various aspects - right up IPRT's alley, groups and client's who may relate or have similar experiences.
There was no publicity (flyers) as asked by CGG; communications before 9/30/08. The use of communication skills or lack or deliberate by the heads, their workers to the clients shameful.
Mute skills re: no announcements made during the Breakfast group, Lunch, or breaks stating the movie would not be shown. 1:00 PM -CGG mtg. cancellation statement made. No explanation in wrap-up group. Yet 9/26/08 - former employees/sup. Dana and Bernice (who weren't exactly wonderful to moi) mulled the Jerome Ave. 2nd floor hallways during a visit - didn't see Seth. . .
II. Jerome Ave. have a supreme knack of hiring degrees un/non professionals - whether regular staff, temps or interns. Example: 9/30/08 - the Learning About Myself Thru Small Group Discussion.
The so-called new Intern (?) Nelie from Greece-( like she's the extension of the eternal twins Sharon + Scott) calls me a liar. This regarding asking the clients to jot down 5 Desires. I wrote and verbalized Europe stating Greece. She states she sure I was Lying. Calmly I asked twice if she said I was lying if she was calling me a liar - she says YES.
Over the past couple of weeks I mentioned to the Guilt Intern knowing and liking the real Mrs. Onassis (Christina's & Alexander's mother) - asked the so and so if she knew Corfu's location-guess what? She's familiar with Philip Duke of Edinburgh's birthplace -wow. . . Didn't mention King Constantine (sic).
III. - Jerome Ave. workers' harassed mtg. re: service plans using shocking tactics while at times displaying grit-toothed smiles. I.e. 9/30/08 - CGG Group staff approved facilitator - strongly recommending re: 9/30/08 advisory board mtg. or something info.
Its been emphasized and yelled - don't expect paid/Medicaid supported staff to do everything for the client-
I Strongly Recommend or "For One Thing"- as written on the so-called service plans signed at Riverdale Manor + Jerome Ave : I shall continue to pursue the IPRT Living Goal (not socialization goal as suggested in inpromptu mtgs.- cause they are being audited or somethin') by utilizing the resources and gaining "Private Independent Living Arrangements". Verbally stating in groups the same-Townhouse, Triplex/Duplex on Manhattan's Eastside (5th Ave.-Park Ave.).
Explained to IPRT from the get go how I got there & it wasn't voluntary (in order to stay at the Manor had to attend a program.
Constantly told and reported to proper heads uncalled for incidents by workers, temps, interns at Jerome & FEGS at Manor i.e : The program is voluntary - Get out if you don't like it- No one is forcing you to stay- Things will get worse for you. . .
October 3, 2008 - Jerome Ave. - During 2nd period group the overweight eternal twined Social Worker Sharon interrupts the group ( though it saw me during breakfast group + 1st pd. group (Fighting the Blues) said it wanted to see me- I politely asked about what- it countered about my goal- i stated No-i was in group could i see it later- answer No, it was busy- Oh then i'll see you next week.
Before lunch (i was the lunch leader) the SW's head boss (representing what she likes to call the higher ups?) asked to speak with me - sure. We walk into her office and she complains maybe getting a cold or doesn't want to catch one.
Closes de door sits & asked in a Slave Master condescending tone "Are you Okay?" - replied yeah why- she continued the SW informed her i didn't want to do my service plan. I calmly stated what occurred & informed since SW was busy i'll do it next week - she counters why- i again calmed informed practically every month we have the same conversations.
She pretends not to comprehend and wanted to know again why- i got up and stated not today maybe next week, maybe Monday- she insensitively tried to push the matter- then Shockingly to me abruptly in an irked demanding tone - Ready?- "You have been here for over 2 years now and preparing discharge papers!". . .
What a change from a few weeks ago whereby she and her higher ups gave me a certificate for-Ready?- Assertiveness.
Next - another incompetent intern(?) named Ricki whatever leading October 14, 2008 Effective Speaking Skills group-group held a debate- i volunteered to moderate-
In front of the large group the Jerome Ave. IPRT Intern(?) [who has traveled to Africa & Dubrai- oh wow] under the pretense of not remembering names & in a Chappaquidick(sic) type tone says Lynatte or somethin'- i smiled-it continues in a taunt manner- Really what is your name? i responded Royal Highness- it stares at me; burst out laughing; makes another {i'd gather okayed remark}- You're Princess Dias right? -ugh- [like what the heck].
Took a short break; returned to moderate. Introducing myself ; pointed to the intern(?) stating
this is Ricky Nelson - no Ricky Nelson was talented. . .
The Intern(?) Rickki whatever reminds me of the characters Toothpick Charlie & Spats depitcted in the Marilyn Monroe flick Some Like It Hot. . .
Hmm. It seems NYC Hudson Street FEGS Jerome Avenue staff loves politicking for Robert I. Curry's little boy B.O. . . . No problem except its how the spiel is conducted and delivered. Oh- a few Riverdale Manor FEGS workers in 2006- mentioned not to get too close to one of the Jerome Ave. IPRT clients - stating he was half- sibling or something. Informed them what Curry did was his business - not assume socialization matters and has no bearing on the Royal Maternal line or upbringing.
Gee wonder if the mentioned above have used My Royal Status to promote or financial promote (Denmark, Japan) or 12/05 Klau 2 an administrator giving a what kind of tour points to me and states Oh yes & we have Royalty here and the visitors bowed their heads to me. . . The medical staff when I asked if they read this blog so they could verify -the comeback the beatles? Like what?
*IPRT- stands for integrity? Nooo! Intensive Psychiatric Rehabilitation Treatment. . . It is a program though there is a Learning goal - it is not a school as yelled; Not to mention Separation of Church and State during Lunch and provides a different environment when investigators pop by!
Anyway what an upfront (regardless whether NUTS be shown or not) to UJA - Barbra Streisand! And certainly beyond the disrespect to My Majestic Mother & me.
Ah- the legalities. . .
