Working at ScotForce Healthcare: Latest ScotForce Healthcare Reviews

I have worked with Scotforce since Jan 2021. The recruitment process was smooth & everyone within the company has been helpful and supportive. There is flexibility built in with the way Scotforce arrange shifts & I have always got the hours I need. Pay is weekly & the rates paid are better than most agencies. I have felt valued & supported by their excellent team. I definitely recommend Scotforce to anyone as a great company to work for.

Worst company Ive experienced

Care Assistant (Former Employee) - Fife - 17 October 2021

Scotforce is the worst company I have came across. Was promised all these hours that they could not provide, my availability was mad available for the prior 3 months and they still couldn't get me shifts that was promised at interview. When challenged they use any excused they may well have said the dog ate all the jobs because it was all pretty pathetic. They double booked me and another person to one job on more than one occasion and refused to pay the one who went home for travel or anything. Training is poor aswel, raised a number of concern to them about the care I had seen nothing was done all that's cared about is the money they can make not the staff, the homes or your residents living there.

Pros

Choose working hours

Cons

Double booked, no help, lack of training, cant give you work offered, poor management

Support Worker (Current Employee) - Glasgow, Glasgow - 10 September 2021

Absolutely loving my job with Scotforce can honestly say I have never worked for a more reliable helpful encouraging and appreciative company in all my working years! (and there has been many) never short of work without over loading at all and they accommodate you in whatever field if possible, management team are first class not only on work issues in general too. Cannot rate this company any higher. Hope to be a Scotforcer for life!

Pros

Excellent hours and pay. Flexibility, suitable field of work. Excellent office staff. Approachable friendly management teamt

Cons

Absolutely zilch.

avoid

Care Assistant (Former Employee) - Perth, Perth and Kinross - 11 July 2021

All starts out well with scotforce pretending they are a big family who respect everyone and are understanding, doesnt last long though! Not all but a select few office staff and one manager are nothing but bullys, forcing you into shifts, not allowed to decline a shift even though its agency, treat you with nothing but disrespect and attitude. They phone and wake you up after your nightshifts to get you todo more work and when u say no they get you in bother for it! They advertise as paid holidays but actually the holiday pay is added into your hourly rate so when worked out your pay is very average compared to other agency’s! They advertise wrong pay alsoIf your time sheets arent sent in by a certain time they deduct your mileage after they have sent you on a 100 mile round trip!!!

Pros

None

Cons

Bad staff, bad attitude, bad management skills, terrible pay

Excellent company to work for.

Staff Nurse (Current Employee) - Perth - 27 January 2021

Excellent company to work for. I've always been given as many shifts per week as I requested so no shortage of work. Great communication at all times and the office staff and manager are always willing to listen and sort out any problems at any time (there's 24 hour on call cover).Great rate of pay which is paid weekly. This company looks after its staff and I'd recommend to anyone considering agency work.

Pros

Weekly pay, weekly emailed rota, good communication

Cons

Have to buy 2nd uniform, long travel distance at times

Great company

Support Worker (Former Employee) - Kirkcaldy - 21 December 2019

From the outset this company has been supportive and honest and has given what they are able to help you settle in. I recently had a bereavement and my ops manager emailed personally to offer support. Also received a tin of shortbread for Christmas. The monies good with as many hours as you can work available. The coordinators are braw. Ag and Sh really go above and beyond.

Pros

Great team

Cons

Not permanent

Great company

Support worker full time (Current Employee) - Fife - 26 November 2019

I’ve worked here for a little over a month now and they’re great. Had a personal tragedy when I first started and I was offered support and understanding from my direct line manager to the highest level. I work in one place and am treated very well. I feel valued and my experience was passed along before I even arrived at my placement. I feel other agencies could take a leaf from their book to be honest
