optimum care average day

care worker (Current Employee) - newtownards - 27 December 2014

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed

a typical day working for optimum care consists of an early start of 6am. we start our first call at 7am for personal care we assist with washing , dressing, preparing food, jobs about the house.an average day is 7am to 6pm. if we come into any difficulties we can phone management. i would describe my job as challenging and not for the faint hearted as everyday presents new challenges rotas as are posted a week in advance as we all are expected to be flexible the most enjoyable part of the job is meeting the people we care for.

Pros

satisfaction of care

Cons

long hours

Don’t expect anything back from rhem

Care Assistant (Current Employee) - Newtownards - 2 August 2022

You do something for them and you will get nothing back, over worked completely. My direct manager was brilliant but the ones who are higher (main manger in ards) and dont actually appreciate how hard the job is are big headed and treat you like rubbish. You are just a number

Community Care Worker (Former Employee) - Newtownards - 2 November 2020

Don't care about employees mental health. Don't listen to staff concerns or try to work with them. Very much do as I say not as I do. Not consistent with staff policies
