Problematic Practices + Disappointing Training - Care Assistant Cardea Health Employee Review

Flexible and can be independent

Lacking resources at times but it’s is a community based system

- Servicing marginalized communities and establishing relationships with the residents - Good networking opportunities with other agencies. Decent support from other agencies - Scheduling: 4x8’s or 5x8’s are considered as full-time

- No support from management and lack professionalism - Very toxic environment - No growth in professional development - Overworked during shifts and rare opportunities for OT - Always short staffed, only hire incompetent people and only hire people based on who they know. Definitely a lot of favoritism, especially if you’re white. - Only one nurse during PM shift and weekends and managing 175 residents - Lack of training and need to confident - Lack of protocols and run into a lot of ethical risks - No part-time positions available - No supplies to adequately provide services such as wound care, ostomy care, or during medical emergencies
