Working Hours at SOMERSET CARE

You are promised one thing but when it doesn’t fit in with what management want then your hours will change, even in the middle of a care round you will be swapped and changed.
If you have a good locality manager then you’ll have a more positive experience but if you get one who doesn’t want to pull their weight then you will find yourself working all the hours under the sun with no say in it and your personal mobile will be hotter than hot on days off with calls asking you to pick up extra shifts.

Loved working in the community. Meeting lot's of new people. Quite a responsibility administering medication and making sure people are safe in their homes. Also very nice to make time to talk to the people i visited as a little chat goes a long way.

Between 10 and 12 hours

No you are not paid for breaks

They reacted poorly and very late. Staff seen with no masks on and PPE was spare. Only allowed 2 masks per 12hr shift. Only allowed to change these after going outside.

There are no roles to work from home.
