Unsupportive, overworking and prejudiced work environment
Employees are completely overworked and unappreciated by management. Staff turnover is high and if you have mental health issues you will be discriminated against by the management, the care is sub par as too much is under the radar.

Not person centred care
At ideal care homes its all about bums in beds and the time you get to spend with them is very very minimal. The amount they pay and the actual care they get is terrible.Always short staffed and I have no idea how they get away with such limited staff to residents
