Pros

The residents and their families are exceptional and are wonderful to work with. The hours tend to be flexible and there are always open hours to pick up.

Cons

The higher up management was not able to run the nursing home effectively, causing the workers underneath to doubt the management and its ability to give quality care to the residents.
