Pros
I have very fond memories working at Cedarhurst. I still laugh and sometimes cry when thinking back on my lovely residents with whom I spent my days with. I was able to build a connection with each individual resident and I loved them dearly. I was able to work this job during my schooling, and they were very flexible with hours. I worked Part-time to Full-time, and I could work day, weekend, and even overnight shifts! The environment overall was very welcoming, and had I stayed after completing my four-year degree, I may have attempted to work my way up to upper management -as there IS room to grow in this company if you work hard towards that.
Cons
Sometimes only one caregiver to a floor-this was not ideal for the residents and the caregiver had to work many jobs at one time. Overall, sometimes understaffed which led to high stress working situations and not high enough pay to compensate for that stress.
