Pros
It can be rewarding caring for people, some of the staff were lovely. You can get your NVQs if you can bear being trapped working for them while you're there.
Cons
Oh boy where do I begin. Management do not care about staff or the residents. Staff were not given enough gloves (all the manager and clinical lead care about is their bonus, not healthy and safety) residents left with minimal pads so they're sat in their excrement for hours or staff are fighting over gloves, pads and wipes. Management are incompetent, one employee was paid incorrectly every week for over a year. Clinical lead is patronizing and refuses to help even if the home is dangerously short staffed. Good, decent staff members were driven out by management because they stand up for the residents or report unsafe practise. A resident was assaulted 4 times and the manager swept it under the carpet until a nurse complained to the police. Numerous items of irreplaceable jewelry stolen from residents, again manager failed to get to the root of who was doing it. Staff attacked by residents, no support from clinical lead or management. I could go on, colten should be investigated by CQC.
