ResCare Employer Reviews

At this place of employment, I learned great interpersonal skills as well as how to provide high quality care to clients.

Enjoyed the work even though there was not enough time in the day to master all tasks.

IT"S A GREAT COMPANY TO WORK FOR BUT THE PAY COULD BE BETTER. BUT MOST OF ALL THE STAFF WAS LIKE FAMILY AND THE CLIENTS WERE LOVING.

Great consumers, worked with the mentally handicapped. Some advancement

At ResCare I was an support associate and I was responsible for assisting mentally handicap individuals with there everyday lives.A typical day at work helping handicap individuals with their everyday livescooking, cleaning, dressing and pcing them I had been certified to pas medicine , core a/ core b certified and, CPR certified. This was a very rewarding – more... job because I made a difference in a lot of people’s live and they made a big one in mine as well. – less

Non caring and non professional. Hard work little pay. Don't expect a raise, they don't exist.

A very unprofessional and unorganized company. Lots of gossip and no confidentiality

this was one of my favorite jobs! I loved the work I did. I felt like I really made an impact on the people I was helping. Sometimes, I was all they had. I definitely got attached to some of them.

Besides the lack of true leadership & structure, I often found myself working outside of the job description posted, like cleaning medical cart's trash cans covered in grime & god who knows what. The training is terrible with no employee training manual or handbooks

I wish them and anyone who works for Pharmacy Alternatives luck for I do not see long – more... term success there. – less

Good place to work. Benefits arent great bur clients are wonderful. flexible schedule

Lack of communication and professionalism. No respect. Under paid and over worked. $8 an hour and no raises.

Staff is wonderful and caring. There are a lot of chances to learn new skills and new information. Over all a wonderful experience.

Provided housekeeping services to clients for senior independent living
Cleaned and disinfected washrooms, laboratories, and bedrooms
Ordered inventory and distributed custodial supplies

I would arrive at the clients house and talk and listen to what she wanted done for the day. Then I would fix her breakfast, make her bed while she ate. then she would dress herslelf and then I would do up the dishes from the night before and tidy the kitchen. I learned how to listen to their thoughts, wishes and how life was treating them. My co-workers – more... were only met in the offfice and I was courteous to them. Hardest part of the job was when they were hurt or needed to be placed in the nursing home for their own safety. The other client broke her hip the night before by sitting down on the closed toilet lid and went 3 days before she had to be transported to Yakima for surgery and rehab in the nursing home.
I like helping people and treat them as though I was in their place. I treat them as I would want to be treated if I was in their place. – less

Enjoyed working with support staff and QMRP's. On a ongoing basis day to day activities were very challenging but enjoyable. It was a very good feeling when you have made a family member or a Consumer smile. Lack of Administrative assistance was very challenging. I learned to be patient and very concerned with the needs of others.

I have worked at Rescare for almost a year it definently a eye opener for those who have never taken care of another life. Everyday we do perinal care, bathing, ipp's, adl's and etc.

I enjoy greatly working for this company and being in the surrounding environment. It is always full of joy and everybody is welcoming. There never really is a dull moment.

the work place id fast paced and cleean .fun for kids of all ages

I loved working at this place cause i had time to myself as well. The hours were flexible so i could plan to do important thing around my shecdule.

I worked for this company (if you can actually classify it as that) for nearly a year. The staff at this company are beyond unfit for this field. They do not care for the clients. The upper staff are also very rude and inconsiderate to their staff and residents. I was let go in 2011 and I can't say that I was that tore up about it. I actually in all – more... honesty felt like I got a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I would never recommend anyone to work for this company unless you enjoy feeling like you are a worthless piece of garbage. However I must say I did enjoy working with the clients, however I believe they deserve much better. – less

This could have been a fun job had the company cared to remove one of the clients from the site I worked in...but a typical day at work was first packing a lunch that would be good kept in my vehicle all day with no need to heat up, then being attacked by a client who wanted food, this client would destroy the house and who ever was in its way to get – more... what he/she wanted and then the company asks you to tell her no or to make better choices then when he/she flips out they give her what she wants anyway. This client was rewarded for attacking staff and hurting people. Make sure you pay attention to the brief description they give you about the clients because what they say they do or might do, is really what they do at minimum all the time to get what they want. – less
