Cypress Health Region

Working for the Cypress Health Region was like working with a family. I worked with managers and employees who were eager and willing to always improve on providing better care and service to our clients and the community. It was an honour to work with so many wonderful and caring people. I had many opportunities to work in different offices within the health district. I feel like my opinion mattered and my work ethic was appreciated.

There is no more than two full time employees employed by this Company at one time in my region. Therefore, most employees are part time or casual, which gives zero incentives to work rurally, and has zero insurance coverage.  Yet they over work their employees to the extreme. This causes low employment of qualified, leaving rural Emergency Coverage low or nil!

Employment in the health region was very stressful and it showed more and more after about a year and a half of employment. My review would be based solely on management during my employment as a housekeeper. Some of the more sensitive situations were handled with more of an intense 'by the book' attitude, and less in a way where compassion for others could have made all the difference.

It appears management have little concern about the employees. They took the 'care' out of health care. They are always looking for mistakes and reason to bash employees. Then they wonder why employees have a poor attitude in the workplace. Used to be a positive, respectful workplace however it deteriorated over the years.

My review of the Cypress Health Region is not a positive one.  Their workers are overworked, underpaid and treated with disrespect.  They provide an unsafe working condition, their focus is not on their residents, and they do not follow proper HR procedures.

To name a few flaws.

Management and fellow employees always respect their clients and employees. Always helpful when asking questions. Always responsive to needs of equipment or time to accomplish tasks.
Very good place to work.

There was a friendly work environment. Once you've been there a while there is a strong sense of comradery. Providing quality care is paramount. If you do your job well and get along with people there will be many laughs to be had.

Many issues with the health region, as well as other staff. Advancement was only through the union, which made it difficult to progress from one position to another.

The pay is great for a single parent, the opportunity is high to have full time hours even when you start casual. Lots of opportunity to get overtime as well.  The benefits were great as well.

I thrived in the structured and demanding job. It was a fast passed rewarding environment. You needed to be well balanced and knowledgable in a everything, mistake were not excepted.
