Hello My Caregiving Family,…read more There is too much thing I would like to talk about from today's meeting. I highly appreciated to come together and share together. I really felt as a member of Home Instead Family :) You are more than an employer or company. Your feedback, comments and advice are like a light for me to find my path. Each of them is priceless.

I love Alaina and her ideas as well. She is very energetic and making people smile.

I told them and they stated "not to talk about other care aides because we don't know the story and maybe the client was just "confused" .... No, this client was not always confused. She stated it happened numerous times. . The staff member leaving early many times was a family member of one of the "higher ups." In office. I was just Wanting CLARITY, I did not like my client being taken advantage of. After being told by my manager that I can ask anything, "please communicate all your worries we are here to support you, at anytime, no matter what it was'" QUOTE. I Had clients AND HOURS taken away because I cared too much numerous times I was told. "I WAS TOO INVESTED". too stressed out, and needed a break from the client Translation: I was placing clients happiness and needs above the company's policies and catching things they were doing that I felt were not serving my clients best interests. Let's just say if you put your clients needs and wants first and above anything else and you make sure they all love you and adore your care, you'll get fired. And forget buying them a coffee with your own money, or accepting a coffee from them because they insist on buying you one, or even a small gift for their birthday, Those are considered "gifts" and are not Allowed. When I was interviewed they made it sound like it was amazing. 'You are there to make your clients feel happy and do extra things, we are nothing like Fraser health, we do so much more." Worked there 9 months are got tossed out like trash. They don't care about clients like they stated, "we go above and beyond" No they don't ... they care about profit and making sure they follow every single rule, despite it not being in the client's best interests. I'm very disappointed with how they treated me. I went above and beyond for my clients. They fired me with no warning. Without even a conversation about it. My care designer didn't even contact me to explain why. Absolutely heartless...and all right after one of my clients husbands died and she was attached to me and this is the last thing she needed, losing me as well. I appreciated the hours and then trying to pair clients personalities to the care aides. But after this misinformation being told I can communicate and talk about" anything "and then being fired for it??? I'm just stunned. And highly disappointed. They protect their company above anything else. Nothing was dealt with properly when I had questions, the care designer previously would tell me one thing, and the other staff would contadict it. Clients care plans needed things added and removed, wasn't done. Suggestions id make to make the clients lives easier, no,"cant be done" so many loose ends. Leaving us confused. I also relayed that certain care aides needed clarity and was told not to discuss other staff. It was so strange how certain things were hushed when all I was trying to do was make sure we were all on the same page, we weren't. I just had my clients best care in mind. I was treated unfairly. I was not told why I was terminated. I will never recommend nurse next door to anyone and I really liked my clients and I wish more care aides were as full of love and heart like I was. Many of their aides are there to do bare minimum and leave. Many eat lunch alone in clients home and don't sit with the client. Texting on their phones. Falling asleep on the sofa, leaving early mid shift and coming back later. letting the client walk to their barn by themselves and falling in a stall between horses, while the aide sits in the house. So many stories I was told about, by clients or their family. Care Aide stated they washed the clients floor when they didn't even touch it according to client and family member. When I brought it up to my care designer .they stated "we will deal with it and maybe family was wrong. I said I know it wasn't washed because I washed it 3x to get the water to run clear! I was told" don't gossip about what other aides do or don't do", when I called the gossip being honest and calling out lies. That same care aide that let a client fall in their barn and didn't wash the clients floor and writing in the notes that she did, she still had a job after puting a client's life at risk?...explain that to me.. So much favoritism. The Aide that allowed my client to fall in his barn, he had balance issues and should never have been allowed to walk alone that far. Yet I, who cared for my clients before my own needs, got fired. That's where I went wrong, you have to get " in there" in order to have serious wrongs you've done "overlooked". I was actually over qualified with my certificates and years of experience. But I stayed, because I loved my clients.
