A Typical day at work requires filling all sicks calls for all departments, Making a four week schedule,answering a mulit line phone, dealing with all staff inquries regaarding beneftis, the CLAC agreement, I manage all the staffing requirements for a long term care facility. The position that i do is the most stress full i deal with staff pays, deductions, benefits their schedules i deny and approve their vacation time. Not many staff like to hear the word no, or im sorry you dont qualify for that.
I also am required to deal with any WSIB injuries or even when a staff gets injured. I providet hem with a safe return to work plan. I alos complete the form 7.
I love my job as i enjoy  making sure i provide the building with enough staff so that the residents are all cared for and getting the attention each one requires.

The residents and most staff are an absolute pleasure to work with. There is always a shortage of staff and it appears to cause a great deal of discord amongst the workers. Long hours and commitment seemed to be overlooked by management.
Management has changed multiple times and there has been periods with no leadership. When directors are put in place they seem more concerned with "making a statement" in their role rather than focus on staff and patient care. The 2 are strongly linked and that isn't noted. Communication is TERRIBLE. Training and support was nonexistent.

I loved working here when I started. The work was hard but you felt appreciated and the work load was fair. In the past two years it has gone completely downhill. The workload is INSANE and no matter how much you try to problem solve, ask for assistance, etc your needs  fall on deaf ears. There is no back up when short staffed, full timers are guilted into working overtime, and the workload grows and grows with no relief in sight. I leave my job unsatisfied at the end of every day and dread going to work on a daily basis. I’ve never been so disappointed in any of my past positions. 

Very hard work, but rewarding career.  Ample hours always available. Wages are reasonable but should be more for the amount of hard work.

typical day is personal care on several residents feeding, bathing, grooming, spending quality time with residents, toileting, assisting registered staff with daily tasks, reporting and documenting on residents care.

Hardest part of the job is being short staffed

Most enjoyable part of the job is making residents comfortable and seeing them happy and smiling

This long term care home has been through significant changes in approximately the last 6 months.   A new management team has been put in place and they seem to be the right team for the job.  Many positive changes have been implemented.  The entire staff care deeply for the well-being of the residents and work tirelessly to provide excellent care.

Healthcare anywhere is challenging, although Management is working hard to follow Ministry standards, provide quality services to the residents and ensure staff retention is maintained through staff incentives. my experience was a positive One !!! Change needs to occur on a higher level for the issues in Long Term Care to improve anywhere !

Wasted 5 years of my life.

Management had no accountability. Because of them nothing changed or got better. Constant staff shortage. Yet no interviews were done and if they were they hired the worst.

Heartbreaking for residents to constantly be under staffed. 

Very demanding company to work for, ongoing management changes.  Many rewards to be gained, extra training and education to take advantage of.  Flexibility is needed.

Good hours, management could be better, I think when they get there ship running better, it will be a great place to work again. The staff is really the heart of this company and they do try very hard.

Caring for the residents is a benefit, making sure they receive the best possible treatment is the best part of my day. Working with not enough staff makes a shift more difficult to complete.
