Not too bad

Childtens Nurse (Former Employee) - Pembrokeshire - 6 October 2019

Ok but seem to be having a time with ongoing plans for future hospital set up. Was a lot worse but seems to be bit better these days. Good luck. Beautiful beaches down here.

Fantastic community

Senior Clerical Officer (Former Employee) - Llanelli - 23 September 2019

I loved working at the hospital where I made lots of friends. The salary for my working hours was fantastic. The training you receive as part of your job is very good. I learned a great deal about office work and received several qualifications during my time in this job.

Avoid the bank!

Bank Health Care Support Worker (mental health) (Former Employee) - WGH - 24 April 2019

Can’t speak for in-hospital management, but the nurse bank office is tragic. Withheld pay for 9 weeks because Admin staff had ‘lost’ our training files and they were not externally reviewed, plunging me into so much debt that I couldn’t afford to drive to work. Refused to let me onto the general bank roster/text service to pick up shifts, only to let another colleague (interviewed and trained on the same dates as I had) onto the system 10 minutes after I had requested!! We were sat right next to each other making the calls to the office and spoke to the same member of staff. Worst employees I’ve ever had, and I’ve worked for some shockers!

Pros

The work is satisfying.

Cons

You are a number on the system and you will be treated as such.

Good and Bad

Carer (Current Employee) - Wales - 6 March 2019

The fellow members of staff are incredibly friendly to work with and in most areas there is a great sense of togetherness. There are lots of ups and downs but on the whole, everyone is trying hard to help the patients.

Volunteer (Former Employee) - Aberystwyth - 30 July 2016

The hospital members of staff were very helpful in terms of patients care and passed a lot of knowledge to me. My supervisor was always answering and addressing my questions and worries. Overall, I have learnt a lot through volunteering in the hospital and working with elderly patients. I have developed my understanding of confidentiality, dignity and respect.
