The most enjoyable part of the job is working with the residents they are all unique and have amazing personalities its easy to bond with them.
Once you understand all the tasks and settle in its a fun and productive environment. A typical day is administering medication ensuring residents have eaten and giving them the options of onsite and offsite activities to keep them busy and happy as well as assisting with general cleaning tasks . iv learnt a lot and appreciate my colleagues for there teamwork and positive energy however management on the other hand need to appreciate there staff more and speak to them in a appropriate manner. Communication is vital and it does lack a lot however they are improving on this. Overall I would say this is a caring supported accommodation that knows each resident well and meets there needs however are lacking when it comes to treating staff correctly i have seen many people come and go and they always blame there experience with management as the cause of themselves leaving.

A typical day at work would include getting an earful from the Management for duties you were never informed about. Many employees were kicked out with immediate effect due to being fun with the residents- which was asked. Eye rolling at their favourite staff member can also get you kicked out easily. The most enjoyable days at work were weekends when there was no Management. Workplace culture is too toxic. Management and Senior staff do not work alongside and there is ego-clash with many employees and the Management and the residents are too unhappy living there as the Management does not prioritise them and is too busy in their own politics. Worst place to work ever. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Very supportive management and owners, every day was different, a great place to work 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Every job comes with stress, silly question this 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Dedicated, caring and supportive

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Every day is different, but it all centers around giving the residents the best support we could so they have good day to day care

There is alot of pressure from managment instead of help and support or guidance.
I would never recommend working here or for these people.
Its run by a husband and wife who do everything unfairly that live there themselves with their children .
They do many hour shifts themselves but dont actually do the work as they run the place which i found quite unfair.

They need alot of improvement as they neglect many service users who are left to awful living condictions



Management expected too much from staff and constantly complained and added work to staff instead of hiring more people. rules were rarely followed, and the owners were always incredibly rude and blamed staff for their own problems. fires staff instead of taking responsibility and has a huge turn over for a reason

Worst possible place, management has no real skills in running a company let alone a company in health & social care. Favouritism on peak, lack of supervision to staff. Fails to fulfil their terms, doesn't give a contract to half of it's employees.  

The company has high standards as they actually care, about the residents and staff.

They want the best the question is do you? and at what cost? 
as this company doesnt compromise on quality and care
