Two Faced Management

Absolute worst place to work. Trust me when I say, stay as far away from this company as you can. Can't go into details, but this company is plain money hungry and ridiculously inefficient. The management team badly needs to work on their communication skills, and pay their workers more than 20/hr with no benefits and no reimbursement for gas or criminal record checks. One day they like you and the next day they don't... all you have to do is call in sick one time for that switch up to happen. And interested clients, please stay away!!! I've seen way more than a few easily preventable medical errors from staff simply not reading the care plans.

Worst company to work with

This is one of the most unprofessional company you will ever work for in Calgary AB. The HR and management have no respect for their employees. Won’t listen to your side if you have your own personal situation going on. This company needs to Be better !

Pros

Nothing

Was this review helpful?

Absolutely loved the job, hated management.

What is the best part of working at the company?Loved a couple of clients. Some very rude. Get in trouble for walking away from conflict. Get written up for doing what you do but it is never good enough. Reports not being done properly (the way we are taught in school). Get in trouble for calling 911 when a client fell. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Management was the most stressful part. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Home based care. Community careWhat is a typical day like for you at the company?Go to clients, give them breakfast, help them with ADLs, give them lunch, set up Skype with family, laundry, dishes, bed making, cleaning

Most of the staff is good, interview is fairly easy.

I feel that the management needs some improvement but overall the job of a caregiver/psw is good. Really like the scheduling team and the workplace culture.

Poor management

Kelowna location is poorly managed. Benefits and raises were promised but never provided. Clients were neglected and miss treated by staff and never resolved. Anyone was hired with experience or none at all. Employees have been stalked by other employees. As an employee you were either working overtime with little to no days off or barely working. Safety protocols are never in place easily getting hurt and harassed by staff to come into work when injured or really sick, staff care more about the cash flow of clients then the well being or safety of clients or other staff.

Pros

The clients

Cons

The company

Great opportunities !

Good company to work at. If you work hard you can get wherever you want to. Culture is hard to understand in the beginning, but once you get it, it's really good.

Pros

Free food, comfortable chairs. Fun people .

Cons

No parking

Great office staff, great clients

Office staff is very helpful and always willing to help with quick responses to any questions or issues. Clients are all very nice and welcoming when coming into their home for visits
Was this review helpful?

Okay

Clients are great to work with and are always very nice. However management and scheduling is full of less than capable workers who need better training in their jobs.

Scheduling

Scheduling needs to stay consistent or more people will leave.My schedule is the same BUT If it’s changed I’ll leave.Clients don’t even deserve the yo- yo schedulers let alone the caregiver.Also -A NURSE better be on board to visit clients who need a nurse.

Pros

Great shift chosen by me

Cons

No gas Milage covered - no benefits -

Toxic environment

The core values are not valued by franchise owners and staff treatment is extremely toxic. Clients needs are not met as needed and management doesn’t appreciate any input that doesn’t align with shining a positive public light on them.
