Honestly the negative reviews speak for themselves. If your looking for employment look else where you will be better valued. Very immature and nit picky staff and management. Very toxic work environment, worst place I've worked so far since being out of highschool. The care as well in this home is very uncaring and very negligent to the elders. I will never work in this kind of industry again after what I've witnessed. Very disappointed with this company.
Absolutely apauled and disgusted with the lack of compassion shown by Louise who is appearently one of the top administrators of the facility. I've heard the horror stories about her from other members of the community but this was my first personal encounter and she has no business running a care facility. If that's the way she treats concerned family members calling to check up on their loved ones when the city has been declared to be in a state of emergency, I can only imagine how she treats the residence who live there a... read more
We have had dad in care at Birchemere for roughly two years now. The menu, breakfast / lunch / dinner is excellent and can be found anytime on their website. The dining area is full service, table clothes etc, with wrap around windows giving a view of the lake and grounds. Very much an 80s Ontario resort vibe...which is likely well within the comfort zone for the age group catered too. The rooms are small, quite basic, but also kept very clean by staff. Staff is unfailingly polite, notice that dad is often greeted by name by... read more
I had an interview and it wasn't clear where the interview was the job was in Gravenhurst but the interview was in Orillia this was not clear so I called to confirm so I missed my interview so we rescheduled it again for the next day. Well the day came for the interview I got a phone call telling me to forget the interview. I was brushed off over a miscommunication. They dropped me is that what birchmere is about I'm disgusted in this and upset. Sounds like there reviews were right bad place to work. Dodge a bullet I guess. ... read more
