Avamere reviews

Understaffed, which leads to unsafe workloads for CNAs and RNs. No one who is underperforming is ever fired or let go because we need every person, which leads to the quality of care decreasing. Hostile work environment because many employees are forced to work double shifts if their relief doesn't show, which happens often and without consequence to the no-show. Company does not care for their employees. No raises for deserving employees. Very little training. Many safety procedures are disregarded concerning lifts and transfers. Not a place I would send any of my family members.

I've never been fired from a job before. Avamere has changed that for me. I really didn't want to work for this kind of company, but they hounded me after the interview and offered me such flexible hours that it was hard to say no. They ended up smacking more hours on me using intimidation tactics, so I had to leave my internship and seriously sacrifice relationships with friends and family. As soon as I became heavily invested, doing my very best work, they fired me with no warning when I gleefully showed up to work one morning. The reason? "We have the right to fire you within 90 days." The real reason I was fired is because I was given the wrong information from a senior coworker who I didn't rat out. Didn't expect such a minor issue to leave a qualified, hard-working employee out on his behind, especially since I was much more qualified and professional than my coworkers. Maybe if I'd ratted her out for an error that wasn't her fault either, I'd still have my horrible job at Avamere. I can only dream.
