Pros

Plenty of hours available if you want them (I was bank staff so I could pick and choose) Some residents at my particular home were very endearing Easy I was treated very well

Cons

I've heard the home I worked at (New Mills) was a lot better than the others, seems like others are a bit more challenging/ they have more difficult service users

A rewarding occupation yet unrewarded for it.

Pros

I think the comaderie of the staff is a great thing, and my service was very welcoming to me. The training provides in induction/on boarding was interesting, despite being in Care for 3 years on and off I learnt something new. Another thing is that Heathcotes staff (at my service) were really supportive to the residents and did many activities and outings with them.

Cons

It is unfortunate, however, the pay is something that needs to be addressed. It is simply not enough for the work that you do. Additionally, there is a very long probation process, which can be off putting to some. 6 months long. The shift times can also be awkward as well, with Lates and Long days concluding at 22.30 at night. A problem if you cannot drive and public transport is limited.

Dreadful

Pros

The residents and some colleagues

Cons

Ok if your face fits. No support from Managers or head office. Incredibly short staffed and when things go wrong management quick to blame employees. Minimum wage maximum hours, expect you to work at short notice
