Christian City

Usually, I get the residents up in the morning for breakfast,assist them with their hygene, and sometimes assist them with their medication. By working with the residents, I have enhanced my compassion with people and I learn new things each and everyday.In my opinion, I think the management is excellent! They work with the staff to build up a better team and a safe environment. With that, my co-workers do encorage teamwork and we all help each other to deal with everyday-problems. The hardest part of the job is when unexpected incidents occur and when you become emotionally attached to the residents and they just pass away. It breaks my heart to see them leave, but I know that they are in a better place. The most enjoyable part of the job is when you get to interact with the residents and get to know them better. I also enjoy taking them to activities. This job is extremely exciting and I have different surprises everyday!

A typical day for me would be making sure that all of my duties and residents are very well taken care of.
I've learned that it's best to be as well prepared and organized as possible.
Over my eighteen years of service, management has definitely remained consistent .
I have developed some of the most important and loving relationships with most of my co-workers.
I would say that the hardest part of my career would be the emotions that comes with losing one of my dear patients.
And the most enjoyable part of the job would be to see the beautiful smiling faces when my patients see me coming through the door.

Working here my schedule was never getting off at the time promised,  job duties always changing due to others now doing it, safety of staff being disregarded,  upper management not supporting staff and not listening to staff.  Staff being harassed to work doubles everyday and receives disrespectful behavior from youths and upper management allowing it.  I would not recommend this job to anyone who doesn't want to be disrespected, under paid, have missing hours and having to wait a month to be heard about it,  and worry about personal safety. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Some decent kids and coworkers, pays okay.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Kids that disrespect staff and nothing is done about it, your life doesn't matter to management. The children are always right.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressful and back stabbing women who will tell lies just to keep their jobs.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful and no support from management.

while there are some good people at Christian City, the follow through on the mission is very poor. Despite what they report, students do not receive adequate therapy, or support. Its a shame, because it is a beautiful campus with some very good hearted people who work there, but upper management cares more about money than making a difference in the lives of children. donors should investigate further before spending a dime supporting and I would not recommend the children's village as a place to work. poor training, support and follow through. 

Christian City has been serving children and families and senior adults since 1965, and they are continuing to expand to serve more people in more ways.  It is an exciting, progressive culture and embraces the values of the Christian faith.  Employees work hard and know that their work has an impact on the lives of those they serve.  It is not a perfect place, but it is a great place to do meaningful work.  And those who work hard and effectively are rewarded well.

Christian city pay is horrible and the management sucks. There is no leadership and no room for growth. The administrative and human resource department is horrible and will play crazy in a heartbeat.

Christian city was a place of my internship and it was great experience and l loved every minute at the site, l was able t gain most of my experience because l shadowed the site administrator of and other top managment personel in order to know how things work in their department.

Job security is in your favor if you began working here before the year 2000.  There's a lot of backstabbing and nepotism fully functioning within the good 'ol boy buddy system.

Great company to work at, but no room for growth. Friendly and fair managers that were willing to help. Pleasant and laid back environment. The technicians came to work prepared to work each day and willing to help others. Company supported employees with up-to-date training.
