Pros

Families and residents are wonderful. Some of your coworkers are great

Cons

Management doesn't have realistic views of the job they expect to be completed. They bring in more residents but fail to hire more caregivers. Caregivers treated like they are expendable. Family members of residents fight for caregivers but are ignored if they don't threaten to move out. Expect nurses to work overtime of the clock. Hard worker beware only people who brown nose get real raises the rest get pocket change. New hires make more than caregivers hired 10 years prior. raises are usually between 10-50 cents...you will never get 50 cents though. Liked CEO until recently seems even he is going against his own mission statement.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for the time you dedicated to our residents, patients and clients at Silverado. Silverado takes pride in the fact that we compensate our associate higher than the market industry averages and provide annual opportunities for increases. We value our associates and many have been recognized for their efforts. We have many caregivers who have been recognized by state and national organizations for their extraordinary service, and many of our current leaders have been promoted and/or taken on greater responsibilities.

We value your feedback, we hope that we can continue to learn from our associates and that Silverado will continue to be a great place to work.

Pros

Very meaningful and rewarding work helping families through one of the hardest transitions in life. The role truly allows you to make a difference and positively impact residents and families every day. Supportive team environment with leadership that understands the emotional side of the work. During a difficult personal time when my grandfather was dying, the company was incredibly supportive and allowed me the time I needed to be at his bedside with my family. It is truly a blessing to be part of Silverado. The work we do changes lives by giving families the opportunity to be family again while knowing their loved one is being cared for with compassion, dignity, and support.

Cons

The work can be emotionally heavy at times because you build close relationships with residents and families who are going through difficult situations. However, the support from the team and leadership helps make those challenges manageable.
