A good employer
HR Manager (Current Employee) - Head office - 23 November 2023
I'm happy to share my positive experience working for healthcare homes, where I've recently been promoted after three years of dedicated service. This accomplishment is a clear reflection of the company's commitment to recognising and rewarding hard work and dedication. Throughout my tenure, the atmosphere within this medium size organisation has consistently felt like a family-run business, blending professionalism with a personal touch. The flexibility offered has allowed me to maintain a healthy work-life balance, and the approachability of the senior management team has facilitated open communication. One standout feature is the company's investment in employee development. Personally, I've benefited from their generous sponsorship of my qualification, a clear demonstration of their dedication to fostering the growth and success of their staff. In addition to these development opportunities, the company consistently acknowledges and appreciates its employees. Regular tokens of appreciation, such as wine and chocolates, contribute to a positive and rewarding work environment. Furthermore, the company's support extends to covering expenses for Christmas work parties and a summer BBQ, enhancing the sense of camaraderie among colleagues. The incorporation of a Christmas choir adds a festive touch, showcasing the company's commitment to creating a vibrant and enjoyable workplace. I've observed that others who are willing to put in the effort and dedication have also seen their contributions acknowledged with well-deserved promotions. I look forward to continuing to contribute -
Pros
Generous, flexible and approachable.
Cons
A bit behind the times with driving efficiencies through technology

Love working here
Accounts (Current Employee) - Head Office - 23 November 2023
From the moment I started working here, I knew it was going to be a good place to work. The location is good, so my commute isn't too far and there is parking. The staff are great and the management are open. I have been able to further my studies with the support of the company. I couldn't have asked to work for a better company. I felt part of the team from the beginning.

Family Atmosphere
Administrator (Current Employee) - Selsey, West Sussex - 20 November 2023
Working at Tenchley is, overall, a positive experience. The staff have become like a family; we have our ups and downs, but we support each other. Our manager is very knowledgeable, supportive and really cares about our Residents. I have been encouraged to further develop my knowledge, to support my role.

RGN (Current Employee) - Swindon, Wiltshire - 10 November 2023
Lovely team; that's the best part of the job! Friendly but strict manager. Hard work but rewarding. Training is badly organised. No pay rewards for working nights or weekends.

Sadly not great working environment
Activities Co-ordinator (Former Employee) - Diss, Norfolk - 8 November 2023
Hardly any support from management mainly because they have far too many things to be doing to run a care home. Went through various managers during my years there and a lack of support for departments.

Health Care Homes seems to be promoting staff growth and best practice therefore making it employee friendly and client oriented
Registered Nurse (Current Employee) - Beaumont Park Biggleswade - 6 October 2023
I have just completed my induction and thus far I am impressed by the feedback on the management of the care and the practices and policies which Health Care Homes has embarked on.

Busy and challenging though rewarding if your determined
Senior Care Assistant (Current Employee) - Beccles, Suffolk - 15 August 2023
A typical day (well night) at work: Handover and plan the shift. Prepare and administer medication safely and effectively. Assist with answering call bells and supporting the care staff with the care tasks. Update and record paperwork, following up on any actions and managing time effectively to ensure smooth running of your shift. Assist with cleaning, tidying and preparing things for the next day shift. Review and complete care plans, updating as appropriate, reviewing risk assessments and other personalised records for each resident. In the morning, assist with personal care for residents, offering baths and showers as appropriate. From 7am complete the early morning medication round (pre-breakfast round), before completing and giving handover to the day staff, providing as much useful information as possible. In the event of emergencies / unplanned events, follow risk assessments, care plans and residents wishes as much as possible, and/or liaise with emergency services to ensure the best out of hours support and medical attention can be sought for residents with any concerns to health. Keeping families informed (as much as they wish) of serious events or ill-health, ensuring all documentation is being completed as expected. What I believe to have learned: Being able to put my knowledge and skills into care and support, ensuring best possible outcomes for residents, health and wellbeing. HCH have a lot of E-Learning and In Person Training available to continue to learn and develop in your role which will aid in confidence, understanding of care needs -
Pros

Great place to work, with fantastic training and opportunities
Activities Co-ordinator (Current Employee) - Kingsmead - 9 August 2023
I worked in a previous care home for a year which I enjoyed, I wasn't offered any training for my role however. Within the 6 weeks that I have been at Kingsmead care home, for Healthcare homes, I have had quadruple the amount of training I received in the year I was in my previous care home. Other than the training and the opportunities for more training, which has blown me away. When I joined Kingsmead we were in the process of interviewing as we didn't have a manager, a deputy manager, an admin and we had a new maintenance and the activities lady had left already. I prepared myself to walk into chaos. However it was so calm, we had our regional manager as a stand in manager and she was so welcoming and has time for everyone. We soon had a deputy and our new manager has started now and admin will be joining us soon. Also the activities lady had set it up so well for me to have a smooth transition and has stayed on bank so comes in to support me on the busy days also. Moving over to Healthcare homes was a risk for me, and it is one that I am so grateful I did, it has been the best move for me and I am so excited for the new training opportunities available to me. Even though I am really happy with my job role and don't wish to progress I love that the company invests in their staff and offers me training and even an apprenticeship, to get a level 2 in adult care and activities, so that I have more qualifications under my belt and also just to learn more about my job role.
Pros
Training, community, home feel, very welcoming
Cons
No bus for the home, perhaps something we may one day have.

A supportive workplace
Head of Care (Current Employee) - Mundford, Norfolk - 7 August 2023
I have worked for healthcare homes for many years, starting as a care assistant. The company have aided me in progressing my career through endless training and opportunities where I am now head of care. There is always someone on the end of the phone if you need support, whether it’s the home manager or a regional support. The company puts their staff and their residents at the heart of what they do and this is shown through staff retention and resident satisfaction.
