Promise the world but don't deliver

Very clichy environment where seniors are regularly trying to out do each other than support each other.So many management changes was difficult to gain any grounding. Constantly offered progression but they never delivered. Best thing I did was walking out.

Pros

Caring for the residents

Cons

Poor managemeny

The Hardest Role I’ve taken on

I am sure as a company I am sure that Care Uk would have been great to work for. And other homes present in a totally different way.. Sadly a particular home is extremely poorly managed, no checks in place to oversea staff are heard, cared for and respected. Management do not care for their staff. You’re not offered a thank you or great job at the end of the day. No appreciation or recognition is given at ALL. Management style is archaic.Staff exist to complement the manager and support their career endeavours. There’s no encouragement to progress unless management want that for you and so various members of staff are treated unfairly -invariably leave..Pay is an issue and management don’t take the time to support and ensure you have a clear understanding as to how it works…Communication is a massive issue. Nothing is properly shared. Management talk about staff and you hear about changes from the great vine instead of directly for line management.

Pros

Pay

Interesting

If you get job satisfaction from working with the elderly, this is your job. But stay out of the staff politics at all costs as this can be quite a gossipy place.
