Poorly managed, no staff support!
Part-time (Former Employee) – Greater Sudbury, ON – 3 December 2018
The only positive thing I can say about working here is that working with the residents is rewarding and, mostly, enjoyable. Aside from that, I have nothing positive to add.
I have never felt so unappreciated at a job. Middle and upper management engage in severe favouritism, do not support the staff that deserve it, do not run homes with competence or consistency. Programs designed to engage staff are implemented then almost immediately abandened with no communication.
Staff are not given supports necessary to care for residents (money can take months to come in), staff are frequently stuck in double shifts (up to 16 hours , I even once got forced for 19). Stay far away unless you want to lose your passion and joy for this industry!
Cons
Long hours, lack of competent supervision, staff/coworkers
