I love being a housekeeper

I just recently quit my job as a cleaner in a Care Home. All the cleaners there were treated like absolute sh*t by the Care Team Leaders. Everything that went wrong was blamed on us; even if it was something that the Carers did, it was pinned on us. I was working 10+ hour shifts back to back with no breaks in-between, and half the time, I was being asked to do three jobs at once. It was like the upper management saw us as machines, and not human beings. I had so many panic attacks whilst working there just from the amount of stress I was under. The Care Home has 112 bedrooms, and most of the time there'd only be me and two other cleaners. Half the time none of them could be bothered to even show up for their shift, leaving two cleaners for 112 bedrooms, six dining rooms, four lounges, the stairways, hallways, and all the dusting on top of that. One time, I was the only cleaner who'd shown up for my shift. So I was completely on my own with 112 bedrooms to clean. It was horrible. I was on bank too. Eventually I just couldn't take the pressure anymore and I handed in my notice. I spent three years in that facility being treated like I was little more than a robot. It was no surprise that the company was losing staff left and right. Guess people tend to get fed up with working for you when you're not even treating them like actual human beings.

That’s why I’ve always picked housekeeping over CNA for now anyways, but if it pays a little bit more I’ll go back to CNA… sometimes I do miss working with the residents, it’s fun and they crack me up 😂

I been a house keeper in a long term facility for 4 years . I like it but the facility expects you to do two people jobs at time when there short,plus they want you to do your job but not be seen . I just realized that Doctors and nurses are the only professions who get a decent pay and all other professions are grossly underpaid !Take taking a CNA coarse cost $800 and $1600 dollars to get certified and only getting paid $ 2 dollars more than housekeepers get paid ,

I work at a nursing home for my day job as a housekeeper director / caregiver There is a housekeeper and assisted living in there is a housekeeper in memory care and I happen to be the housekeeper I love the residents and I love my job I do not love my employees they do not treat me with any respect at all I have talked to my boss and I have talked to people but it just comes out that I have to deal with it the end of the day I know I did my job and I took care of the residence and there family
