In a previous blog story sources revealed that incidents at a group home in Bloomfield, CT raised cause for concern. First of all a woman of color named Sophia Dixon was terminated March 1,2018 from the group home on Applewood Road in Bloomfield. She had worked at the group home for over 13 years and the only crime committed during that time period [ in management's thinking] was questioning a performance evaluation. Several sources indicate how this particular group home operated by Keystone Human Services hires employees at low wages. The standard work shift is over 8 hours and includes employees caring for adults with cognitive or disability issues. Now add into the group home environment supervisors targeting employees considered trouble makers and tensions can run mighty high.
Why after over 13 years on the job did Sophia Dixon get bum rushed out the door? Keystone Human Services is a company with group homes in other states. I wonder if the treatment Sophia received is universal practice in other group homes owned by Keystone Human Services ?
