Pros

Very flexible with shift times and locations (both are based off of your own preference and availability) Opportunities for OT or just picking up extra shifts in general was constant Management seemed to stay on top of answering calls and openly communicating about whatever issue you had

Cons

Lack of training Purposely withheld information about certain problematic clients in order to ensure that the shifts would covered Mildly overbearing with calls/texts about picking up last minute shifts Management wasn’t great about giving reassurance/solutions when it came down to expressing feelings of discomfort with certain clients. Seemed like they kinda expected you to just deal with whatever was going on until your shift ended. (I could see why some people would walk out on their clients mid-shift)

Pros

Get to meet wonderful people. Get to see into peoples lives, and treasure getting to know them. Ask questions, get to hear about how they got to where they are, what their philosophies are, their life stories, their advice. The opportunity for connection is limitless.

Cons

Dementia! I learned to love working with dementia patients but be warned if it's your first job with them. Don't take what they say personally. I wish someone had told me that before my first position. It's not about you. It's about them. Second! Beeoches. There are so many old ladies you're going to run into who are BEEOCHES. Don't be afraid to tell the bossman that I'm sorry, this isn't a good fit. I was too afraid to say something and ended up staying with a little old lady who was H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS to work with for two years. Former CEO of a company. Beeoch! Stand up for yourself. If you don't know how, this job will teach you. You'll learn a lot about yourself if you don't know yourself very well!
