Twelve Oaks

Working at Twelve Oaks was fun for the most part because I liked my co-workers. They were the only way I could get through my day. 

However, management sucks. No one in any of the departments is properly trained. The mentality of management is sink or swim. Most of the staff realize that and will try to help you as best they can. However, the morale there is so low. Staff tries to make it better for the patients but there is no support from up top whatsoever. They are the reason why most of the staff is wanting to leave or have left already. They've lost a lot of good people which is sad.

It's a joke there. That's why the mindset when someone complains is "Well, that Twelve Oaks for you!" Everything is broken, everyone complains, but nothing is ever done about it.

Place is so understaffed. Promised a set schedule and then it changes constantly.  Poor leadership.  Only time higher ups come out of their offices is when something terrible has happened.  They don't care about their employees,  only the money they are getting from the clients.  Pay sucks. Could make more money at McDonald's.  Most of the clients are young and really don't follow the rules. Tell your supervisor something important, and it never goes any further. Honestly they will work you to death if you are a good employee (show up and know what you're doing) Worst place I've ever worked with such Poor management thar doesn't care about their employees.  You have to take care of your employees for them to be able to be able to care for the clients.  Doesn't happen here though..

Arriving at work I check on all of my patients make sure the patients are all assisted. Then we get ready for supper or lunch depended on the shift working that day. after lunch was given and all patients were fed I would assist the patients with their daily medications and assist them as needed for the remaining time of my shift.  The co-workers were great we all got along and worked as a team so it made the hardest part of the job easier as in lifting if we had to. The most enjoyable part of my job was my patients expressing the happiness I made them feel by being there.

There is no “typical day” at twelve oaks. Things change day to day. Company policies, individual building rules, etc. I learned a lot from previous management that’s not practiced as of late for them now.  They don’t know how to manage. They have their favorites. The management is toxic. They select a few for “eyes and ears” to fill them in on employees there. Not always true and a lack of decernment in their part. The hardest part if the job is returning day after day but I love all of my residents and get to see and talk with them and it makes it just a little bit better. 

I have worked here for over a year and a half.  I enjoy it so much.  My work family is the best.  All jobs have things that people will find as a negative, so Twelve Oaks is no different than any other job.  Its all in what you make of it.  If you are a people person who doesn't judge others...you might be perfect to work here.  All staff tend to be positive and appreciate the work they do.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great support from leadership team.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Paper work

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Counselors work well together.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Encouraging patients to stay in treatment.

They cut your hours and tell you that “you can’t work more than what you were hired for” then they turn around and schedule you for a 16 hr shift when you’re use to 8hr shifts. Also All new employees don’t show up on time so you end up having to stay over every day to cover for management and management still hasn’t taken care of it..

not concerned about clients only profits  management  the human resource department was more concerned with complains from mentally deranged clients than from licensed clinicals counselors  more concerned about paperwork being correct than effected counseling  would not send my worst enemy to this place. 
    

They don't work with you on hours , they basically make you work over time and then get mad about it , they don't pay enough for what you do , I wouldn't send my dog to work here ! Definitely not a caring loving place , they dont take care of the residents like they should ! I wouldn't recommend trying to work here ! 

I over love the environment minus some of the former coworkers my overall experience at the job was wonderful and if given the chance I would go back because I love all my residents and my boss was understanding most of the time she just didn’t put up with slacking
