The Hamlets Employee Reviews

Great place to start your career at, you get to se3e what a care home that is not run properly. Management are good friends with the employees that seem to be bullies or just plain stupid. they been caught in residents bathrooms, having an affair with aides and nurses. Those staff know that they will not be able to find employment elsewhere. So if you are a good worker, dont go here

Pros

non

No appreciation from management. The facility is way understaffed. Staff were overworked and underpaid. No assistance from management. Very is unorganized at times and not enough staff to cover duties and responsibilities.

The place is a money cash cow

Nurse Practitioner (Former Employee) - Penticton, BC - 8 December 2016

The management are not personable. They are there for money. Care aides are over worked, paid low, Staff are hard to keep, so if your abusive, bully, or perverted you won't loose your job, they keep these staff working. There are a lot of cutbacks, but mainly toward the residents, food has gotten poor, or lack of. Honestly if you end up with a good team member you will be OK. If management can show staff they care, the place would be wonderful. Management needs to get rid of the perverted, rude, abusive staff.

Pros

Easy to get hired

Cons

Poor management, low pay
