Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust Employee Review

Nope.

CIA Clinical Imaging Assistant Ultrasound (Former Employee) - Truro - 11 July 2022

If you have your feet under the table and have been there a while then your all set to boss the newbies around whilst you do nothing. If your new then expect all the hardest, dirtiest, most stressful jobs whilst others take the easy tasks for themselves. Management let the longest running staff members create own rotas so they basically get to do what they want, when they want. They also don’t train you properly but expect you to know what your doing anyway. Sonograhers were always lovely, CIA’s were NOT.

Fab colleagues and passionate team wanting to make a difference

Quality Improvement Manager (Current Employee) - Truro, Cornwall - 27 September 2023

I’ve worked for the trust for 3 years, my day-to-day involves a lot of fire fighting and things are difficult since covid with lots of backlogs and pressure so it can be quite stressful but my team are amazing and very supportive, I also believe management are passionate about getting things better for all patients in Cornwall. They are trying their best in extremely difficult circumstances. The culture within my team is great, really encouraging and supportive. I feel valued and my contributions are encouraged. Although that’s not the case across the trust unfortunately some teams are struggling with this. The hardest part of my job is relying on other people to get back to me and to want to change things for improvement. Unfortunately because the pressure is on their isn’t necessarily the time to focus on improvements.Overall I really like working here, the majority of people work hard to make a difference and that’s where I get job satisfaction from.

Pros

Good opportunities for development and career growth and passionate team of people

Cons

Very pressured environment that can be draining

Lack support and progression

Nurse (Current Employee) - Truro, Cornwall - 18 April 2023

Employed as a senior experienced nurse, all of my suggestions for improvement or change were ignored. Do not allow you to progress to higher bands unless your prepared to work full time
