Nurseplus can be a fun work place as the hours are flexible

My job title is support worker (Current Employee) - Derby branch - 12 July 2023

I enjoyed working at Nurseplus. The hours are flexible and good pay, I would recommend anyone to join Nurseplus. The staffs are friendly and helpful. I did my first shift on Saturday, at first I was a bit nervous but everyone was friendly and helpful. I gave Nurseplus 100%

Great managment unpaid training

HCA/Support Worker (Former Employee) - Kent - 20 May 2023

Management was easy to work with and very welcoming. We could choose our shifts in advance. The best part of the job is that it's entry level, the worst is no pay for training.

Decent enough agency

Support Worker/Carer (Current Employee) - Bristol - 7 March 2023

For a 0 contracted hour contract it’s not too bad and the pay is decent enough. Unfortunately it’s because it’s not guaranteed hours you can be out of work for a while which is way this is only best to make some extra money on the side.

Awful Culture

Cut throat and unprofessional office staff discuss clients in derogatory fashion, haphazard booking of shifts no direction, once in a place told to find shifts yourself archaic timesheet process,such an unfriendly company to work for 👎

Pros

None

Cons

Chaos

Ridiculous management

HCA/Support Worker (Former Employee) - Exeter, Devon - 23 November 2022

Old fashion management with black lists pushing always just on they’re own interest,unfriendly office staff.Well if’s you’re new in healthcare probably your not having expectations but they will always have and unfortunately totally unrealistic.Move on for a permanently position with more than 0 hours contract.

Fun place depending on where u work

Support Worker (Current Employee) - Bristol - 28 September 2022

Can be a fun places some services are a hit or miss but I’m enjoying my time working here. Once you find a place you like I would recommend you stay there instead of carrying on working with nurse plus

Office staff do not care about staff wellbeing.

Support Worker (Former Employee) - Colchester, Essex - 30 August 2022

Working for NursePlus had it's ups and downs. The office staff act like your best friend when you agree to shifts but if you cannot do a shift even though you had said no already they would ask again even after a no. If you had to cancel on a shift due to to health issues which we are all human it happens (and they are aware of the health issue) then they way they dealt with it was sometimes not professional at all with no empathy whatsoever. Just be prepared to provide proof of going to HOSPITAL if you ever need to cancel on a shift too and for them to not even ask if you are ok :) You are clearly just a number to this agency.The agency works well for students for flexibility and weekly pay.

Pros

Flexibility, meeting new people and service users

Cons

Office staff, not caring about their own staffs wellbeing.

Good management

Support Worker (Current Employee) - WORCESTER - 18 July 2022

I enjoy working at nurseplus because I work the shifts that are suitable to me and there is no pressure to work when I do not want to. Any problems that I may have are quickly sorted. The pay is quite good.

Do not bother

Support Worker (Current Employee) - Newton Abbot, Devon - 13 July 2022

the worst agency ! The most disgusting unkind office team!! So rude on phone and in office, considering it’s a care setting they do not care about you. They are like school children in the office, HORRIBLE. Anxiety was through the roof having to speak to them. Shifts will get cancelled and they won’t help you find another shift. If you fall unwell YOUR BOOKED SHIFFS WILL GET CANCELLED! They do not care about u, you are just a number to them. I had some issues which I thought I could confide in management / office and made to feel like a burden and stupid for even TALKING TO THEM.ALWAYS UNDERPAY YOU, always chasing pay. Join Ocean Health Care if you want a decent company to work for!!! I will forever slate Nurseplus for being the WORST!!!!!!!! If you work on the floor Nurseplus is HATED, the training is HORRENDOUS and I’m not surprised agencies have a bad name!!!!

Could be better

Support Worker (Former Employee) - Durham - 1 July 2022

The homes/ services you get sent to are ok but you may aswell work for somewhere with an app. You get email after email offering you a list of shifts and dates, when you reply there’s either no response until the shift has gone or it gets booked and cancelled or not booked at all. No one talks to the staff anymore but at least if it was an app you would get some shifts. The branch you just get emails and then no response or a message saying there’s been a mistake or the home has booked you and cancelled you but when you mention it to the home they say they never booked you in the beginning. Lots of confusion means getting confirmations for shifts you know you’ve been cancelled for so lots of mix ups. I rang for 6 days last week to speak to the manager and they just said he was out so think the girls are just overworked but it’s hard for staff to keep motivated lately. Could be better but it’s ok.

Pros

Homes ok.

Cons

Staff not always approachable or there. Other agency’s nicer
