Won’t fight to keep good workers
|
|
The residents are the best! Great Co-workers! Clean facility,
|
Upper management does not care about their employees. They say..”If you don’t like it, there’s the door.” They don’t hang on to good employees either. The residents don’t get what they pay for! They won’t pay good money to get servers to stick around. The employees and the residents are the best part of this place. The executive director is the main problem.

Active Living Director

Decent Pay - Embarrassing Operating Budget
|
|
Wonderful residents like most places. A strong team of dedicated professionals and caregivers. Salary is strangely structured as an hourly employee and requires punching a clock.
|
As census rose, my monthly activity budget shrank from $1,200 a month for around 100 residents to $800 for over 125 residents. The company advertises "luxury" living and charges for that yet there is no budget to pay outside speakers a small honorarium and just enough to cover weekly music and a few basic art supplies. They expect only volunteers and residents to fill the gaps. Memory Care residents paying over $10,000 per month for care are allotted $300 for activities when they actually need higher amounts to support more programming and lower staff resident ratios. The chefs are given well under $10 a day per resident for 3 meals. You can imagine the "luxury" living" quality for yourself. This family owned company does not practice what it preaches. Total misadvertising. Disappointing...mostly for the residents.

Ensure all EDs and directors get mandatory training to manage people. Don't proclaim that you are "luxury living" when you offer barely edible food, unsupported directors, and dysfunctional promises like dried out pools that will never be repaired. Either stop expanding and invest in what you have, or get into another business where you are not exploiting the seniors you claim to care for.

Treat staff well and they will reciprocate. Do this and your staff will not exit in multiples. Retention rate is so low.

A Former Employee

Edmonds, WA

|
Awful
|
|
Spending time ahd getting to know the residents.
|
This is a terrible place to work. High turn over rate! No one stays longer then a month, they will hire anyone who walks in the door that needs a job. The hours are only suited for teenagers who do not have any bills to pay. The benefits are terrible high out of pocket costs and you can barely save enough time for sick or vaction days. There is no work life balance here they want you to be available 24/7 for very little pay. The nepotism is out rageous, the director promote’s immature under qualified employees to managment and they get to do whatever they please with out receiving any reprocussions or backlash,while other employees get written up for doing there job. I feel so bad for the residents, they pay retirement and life savings for below standard care. the care givers on duty are too busy on their phones wandering around or watching tv. The owner should really start over from scratch with his leadership teams who are the backbone of running his communities.

Don't do it

Absolutely nothing good about working here. Only apply if you want your mental health to go down.
|
Overworked. 50 residents to yourself at night and they are aggressive and mean. I was hit, kicked, bitten, scratched and had BM thrown on me and the only thing mangment asked is what I did to them. Bruised ribs. Racist mangment, only liked to have set schedule for the ones they liked otherwise they tell you they will schedule when they want and if you don't like it you can leave. They leave residents coverd in BM but mangment said unless they are left 8 hours than it's not neglect and to deal with it( shocker it was of the favorite employee) I was retaliated against when making reports. They caused panic attacks

Job with purpose
|
|
The culture is very high end with a focus on ultimate resident and family care. The home office is willing to work with most families and the employees are treated fairly.
|
The healthcare industry has declined since COVID and not enough emphasis has been put into additional training and certifications.
