£6.36 a hour free uniform consists of a blazer only. Good carers and nurses

Svantaggi

You work 12 hour long and short staffed shifts.I have worked 16 hours Staughton on a number of occasions there's also people who work 24 hours. Admin change your shifts when ever they feel like it and your expected to be free and get child care at the drop of a hat. Your touchstone training has to be done asap because if u fall behind and are bank staff they can take your hours off you. Training also has to be done on your own time. You will never get a thankyou for anything you do. .The management are bullies who know nothing about doing a 12 hr shift of caring with broken equipment no pads a pack of wipes between 16 residentsno soft diet options half a loaf of bread between 40 residents (2 floors). If you have children and have a meeting or taining your expected to bring them even with all the bugs and infections all the residents have. The management are BULLIES and have no problem threatening you with violence. If your ever heard being a bit short with any residents even the ones that shout and swear at you. Then expect you to jump to their tune there and then,even though you have 4 other residents buzzing. If you don't jump to there tune asap. They report you. You will never have any rights.

Thank you for your post. Your feedback is really important and I’m truly sorry to hear your concerns. We all know how important the hard work of dedicated staff members at our homes is – you make a huge difference to Residents every single day. That’s why we’ve made investing in colleagues such a priority since we took over from Southern Cross in 2011. We’re working hard to make sure that staffing levels meet Residents’ individual needs and we never condone short staffing or excessive shift lengths. Your feedback on training is also very important. We’ve had lots of positive responses about the HC-One Touch training programme, so I’m concerned to hear what you have to say. In our last two staff satisfaction surveys training has consistently been described as ‘the best thing HC-One has done for me’, but it’s really important that staff have the time to complete it at the right pace. This is an area the team and I will be reviewing. I’m also sorry to hear your concerns about the home management. We know that everyone needs effective support in new roles or in managing challenging situations, so we plan to launch a Leadership and Management programme very shortly to help with this. In the latest satisfaction survey, where nearly 5,000 home-level colleagues responded, nearly 85% were ‘satisfied or very satisfied’ with their job and working at HC-One. We do take all feedback very seriously and want to hear from you to find out how we can improve your experience. I realise you may not want to talk about this with your manager, but please do get in touch with the regional HR or Operations teams. We are all here to help. You can also get in direct contact with our Chairman via askchai@hc-one.co.uk. Alison

Vantaggi

Great PTO! Good place to get experience as a new graduate.

Svantaggi

Poor work /life balance due to lots of uncompensated hours required to maintain productivity. Double booking of clients by schedulers with no say so. pr rather than primary focus of agency is on productivity. Also, Electronic Health Record becomes a crutch (too many check boxes) and you will lose your diagnostic skills and writing skills here. Also, supervision is not free here.
