Brookdale Senior Living Careers & Employment - Working at Brookdale Senior Living

I would leave because the way they talk to people . Management only talk to you to butter you up to pick up doubles or split shifts. We have staff meetings every month to literally talk about the same thing from the month before. When they need people on the floor you’ll think management will step up and take one for the team. Nope they will push and push for somebody to do a double or come in early. Then you get complaints about wanting a day or 2 off catch up on sleep.

Stop putting people who belong in nursing homes or ltc’s in alv’s. Then get mad when something does go right with the patient. I understand you want to raise your census to get more money. But if you’re not going to train us properly don’t get mad when we do the best we can. And if your going to have more nursing home residents then actual assisted residents give people an adequate pay raise and not 50¢.

Make people friendly policies. In the middle of a pandemic, when all facilities are under staffed, Brookdale is undertaking a Paid Time Off reorganization. This effectively requires associates to lose PTO or try to find a way to take time off when departments are overworked with understaffing.

The honest answer is that it really depends on what location/state that you're in. I'm not understanding the people saying it only takes a few days to be hired, considering that you have to setup an interview. After that, you wait for HR to call you, that was my experience anyways, and it took them almost 2 weeks to call. There was paperwork that had to be filled out after the initial interview also, which held things up. Once hr called they setup a date/time for the drug test. After that it was getting $35 background check. A week later hr called to setup another meeting for tax paperwork/SS & ID. This has taken over 6 weeks and is the longest I've ever waited to start a new job. It all depends on where you're going to work and how badly they need you at the time.

Great less asking of questions
