Helping Hand

This was a great, all around experience. I was able to develop skills in an area of which interested me, which is building maintenance. The buildings were 128 years old, so there were many interesting and unique challenges. I essentially supervised myself, as there were only four employees total. I would report to my supervisor in the morning, she would give me a list of tasks that needed doing by the end of the day, then I would add my own weekly tasks to the list and create my entire work day. Self supervision requires a strong work ethic, so I had to learn to complete most of my tasks single handedly and not let myself become distracted. I was also allowed to take breaks whenever I felt the need, which fit perfectly with the job, since every day saw a different challenge.

Helping Hand has recently been bought out by another company. I do not feel I can give an accurate review for it currently. 
However Helping Hand was a family atmosphere and everyone  was reasonably easy to get along with. The Therapy was excellent. The Children were treated respectfully and with care. 
Continued education was provided by the school and kept current. There was however a lot of turnover for different reasons.  Some were college students and left when they graduated. There was a lot of turnover when new management came in.

Our student population is tough to navigate if you aren't already familiar with students who have significant autism. However, the staff and support from fellow staff makes it worth coming to work every day despite the challenges. Admin offers support the best that they can and are easy to talk to about concerns. It feels like admin tries their best to figure out solutions. The only downfall is that the school can sometimes feel like it's run like a business, where money takes priority over student and staff safety. 

A day at work consist of care for developmental disable patients. Grooming, feeding, and spending the day doing activities of their choice. Such as listening to music, playing games, watching T.V, going out in the community, and exercise. I learned that taking care takes patients and a loving heart. The most enjoyable part of my job is seeing my clients enjoy themselves during our everyday tasks.

A typical day at work consisted of cleaning, cooking, bathing, and running errands as needed. The hardest part of my job would have to be is the non consisting hours. The most enjoyable part about my job is that I get to take care of others that cannot take care of themselves i get the enjoyment of being there as if its one of my own loved one. I enjoy being able to help others.

This agency continues to improve trying to do what is best for the employees.  This helps so we can do our best for the clients and students! Overall I feel supported and try to support my team!

Helping Hand Center has been a very rewarding place of employment. Working with children with or without special needs has been a life long passion of mine. The staff has been very supportive and I don't want to leave them, but I am moving to Ca to be closer to friends and family.

Owner and Management has not a clue what they are doing. Company is very poorly run, many clients are left unattended last minute due tue poor management and the company being mismanaged. It’s no wonder that they have any clients at all. They charge three to four times what they pay the staff, absolute disgrace.
