Productive and fun place to be . I work with the best team in the hospital, Urology short stay

Health Care Assistant (Current Employee) - Urology short stay @ Westmoreland - 24 March 2023

Working with uclh is one of the best decisions I made. The staff’s are competent and always striving to improve. The teamwork is what I love most about my ward. There is always opportunities to improve yourself through study days, short courses, etc.

Pros

Best team

Cons

Shortage of staff and having to cover other wards

Bad management

Was aTheatre Practitioner (recovery nurse (Former Employee) - London - 20 March 2023

Management is 0 in this hospital. There is no equal opportunity, place full of phillipinos. Where is the equal opportunity they preach. Many managers roaming around doing nothing. Structure needs to be looked into.

You are encouraged to advanced in ur career

Healthcare Professional (Former Employee) - London - 19 December 2022

There is open career progression. The work environment is very good.Overtime is not paid. However agencies run for extra shifts. If a ward is short of staff the nursing agencies run the shift. E.g. there is bank shift available for any permanent who needs extra pay. Paid by the agency running the bank shift. That is not NHS. This agency supply wards that are short of staff.

Pros

No free lunch

Pros

Great workplace

Sometimes high pressure

Not a good Atmosphere. Some bullying.

Band 4 and Band 5 admin (Former Employee) - Euston, Greater London - 2 December 2020

It is sometime since I worked at UCLH but there are far too many managers and the work is not fairly distributed. I worked in administration. On the plus side helping patients and their families gave me a sense of satisfaction fulfilment.

Cons

Too many managers

fun workplace

Health Care Assistant/Support Worker (Former Employee) - Warren Street Station - 10 June 2020

Assist patients with their mails, attend group meeting. Its a fast working pace workplace, it can get very busy. I helped go for their meetings. The management was very strick, eveyone had their appointment to attend, to see a docotor, or get help to explain about the care they will be recieving on the day.

Enjoyable workplace with a balanced work life.

Clinical trials practioner (Current Employee) - London, Greater London - 19 May 2020

There is no typical day, as everyday can be very different and present new challenges. I have learned to be able to solve and change and adapt to new situations arising. Management is very kind and helpful in almost all matters. The workplace is very inclusive and multicultural which would allow anyone from and race, religion or place feel very welcome. Hardest part of the job would be the wait times in between different tasks in clinic which could get tiresome. The most enjoyable aspect is the direct effect our trials have on patient lives which are helping and making a difference to peoples lives.
