The current administrator of the California Armenian Home, Yuba Sonofabitch, started at the home over 30 years ago as a CNA. Over the years, she has learned to align herself with a few influential people and knows how to play the political game very well.
Cuba has additionally hired people who are non-Armenian in key positions, she looks for people that are new immigrants: Hmong, Mexican, Russian, etc., who are desperate for a job. They come cheap and are so grateful to have a job they will not cause any waves for Tuba. Scuba, has a small circle of these dregs (who cannot find a job anywhere, desperate for money, single mothers) that are loyal out of fear of losing their jobs.
Lubica, left over 5 years ago (or was asked to leave) and headed down to San Diego to work at the Emmanuel facility. Then the unfortunate thing happened, the company managing the California Armenian Home facility had a $100K shortfall of money (because of incorrect billing to MediCAL) the then board president Julie (*set the odometer back) Miller panicked and against the boards wishes begged Lubrication to come back. This later resulted in 3 board members who are community leaders to step down from the board or be voted out by the Miller-Saroyan-Bagdasarian family / friends
* Fill in the dots yourself, Miller's husband has a car lot that was busted for setting back odometers. THIS SAME FORMER BOARD PRESIDENT THAT CLAIMS "We treat everyone the same" yet her auntie Charlotte has a private room with the best of furniture and care.
Yuba negiotiated a $150K a year salary and additional $20K for passing audits (total compensation $170,000 yr) yet to our knowledge posses no degree of any sort, nor has a medical license (although she claims online to be a "Physician") She stepped in with the understanding that she would have control of the hospital and turn it around, yet to this day she believes that she is grossly underpaid. This is more than physicians, lawyers and others that are highly educated.
MediCARE and MediCAL have made many changes to their reimbursements, the laws are constantly changing and a facility with a $17+ million budget (65% from Government, 20% private pay, 15% donations) cannot be handled by an ignorant rude person who has no clout in the Fresno Community. on 3 seperate occasions Ms. Tuba, Yuba, Scuba or whatever her name is has rudely told members of the Fresno Armenian Community that "we hag no rome forg your familee" (in her crass uneducated Croatian accent) then slams down the phone. One of these "Fresno Armenian Leaders" was an attorney that called a board member who had George Juarez call her back within 3 days for a room.
Yuba leads by fear and intimidation, this is her only talent. It works for so long then her little small group of loyalists cannot take it. The turnover is high at the California Armenian Home, anyone with real talent will move on to work in a non-nursing home facility. Snuba will not hire anyone that is intelligent or has a mind of their own. Especially any educated Armenians, they are considered a threat to her. There are tons of Armenian surgical nurses, physicians and other medical professionals that would be a benefit to the hospital. But now that it is heavily government subsidized you have to play by the government rules. Meanwhile that Armenian money that use to flow in to the California Armenian Home is shrinking, shrinking, shrinking to nothing.
