Salary - werkgeversreview HCA/Support Worker bij Radius Care

Friendly staff Staff try to help when they can

Management ignored my request to have orientation days in other wings They chuck you in the deep end working at an unfamiliar environment (very unsafe) Everything seems to be too rushed and busy, RN to resident ratio is UNSAFE! You need a med comp HCA to get CDs or DS drugs signed off but they are also in a rush to finish their task so RNs are also pressured (UNSAFE) Unorganised Very little support to new staff, when I first started they just gave me two orientation days, one being a tour of the facility with HS manager, and the other in the hospital wing. After that I was basically left on my own. Management ignored my messages to request for more orientation days Very little career development opportunities I also work with the agency so I have been to other resthomes as well, Radius is the worst one I have ever worked in so far.

Ability to pick up projects in different areas, very flat structure, great senior management currently, very friendly and collegial atmosphere, a very nice bunch of people working hard to improve lives of elderly.

The Auckland office is only small so it’s hard to get promoted currently therefore the pay is pretty average to low for administrative type roles.
