Make a difference to poorly people’s everyday life

Pay & no recognition. Big turnover of staff

The training is the best I’ve come across and it makes me proud to work for Barchester.

Barchester seem to have a sink or swim attitude.

To much stress to much pressure to much paperwork not enuff support

Helping older people to live their daily lives

Never enough hours in the day to do the job properly,constantly understaffed

The staff and residents

Short staff no time to give residents quality time

I love been a carer and looking after patients . I love interacting and seeing them progress and some go home .

I feel we aren’t praised enough and rewarded enough it always seems to be the same people that get rewarded when we do so much .

The colleagues I work with and the residents I look after are all the best people

The pay, the hours and working weekends

The hours of work

No communication and the carers treat cleaners like dirt no respect n we often are not cleaning up after residents it's the staff we clean up after no team work
