Epilepsy Foundation Reviews

Pros

Excellent job training and review of practices and, Helpful we all had to work in different teams during orientation exercises while socializing /interacting with other new employees like myself

Cons

Residential Site I was assigned to was extremely unorganized, unprofessional management & under staffed. I was only part time but was mandated to stay every single time I worked. I would get there at 7am on Sat and wouldn’t leave till after 12am the next day and have to be back for my Sunday shift at 7am …and would be mandated to stay over time once again. I was assigned to a wheelchair adult who I was unable to lift on my own and struggled to find someone to help me lift her. She often would throw her feces at you and I would be left a lone to clean up the resident who obviously is agitated and angry I am cleaning them. The managers rarely helped and one stayed in the office all day with ear buds in and little interaction with residents. Those who were long time employees were the least helpful & often times asked a co worker who was also new for assistance. One night I had a coworker who was mandated to stay later for his shift and had vomited three times and had a fever but was refused to leave work early. They didn’t even offer to call and see if they could find a replacement —he was forced to stay 3 more hours and ended up going to the dr’s the next day.
