Pros

Until my last month, had abundant work with them.They offer reasonable training.

Cons

I worked full time for Senior Helpers I was given work all the time. Often overworked. One time 130 hours in a week. One day after my current client was over., I called in for more work but was repeatedly told by the schedulers, who said there was "no work" at the moment. This seemed odd, because I know they were a busy company..i have been told by many that I am a compassionate, responsible wonderful Caregiver/cna. One of the inside staff. finally told me they , the schedulers had been told not to give me any more work.this was after months of lying by them to my face! Upper management, when asked about this said they were "telling me now" about the decision! With no apology or explanation. In retrospect I have known a number of caregivers who have been treated like this by Senior Helpers. The company doesn't care if you burn out. They are in the business to make a profit I am glad I was hired and gained experience, but highly disappointed in the way they handled my termination.

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!
