EHPAD Gallevent à LE TEICH

My Testimony as a Former Employee I worked at this facility a little over two years ago. My experience was marked by positive aspects, particularly some members of the nursing staff who were pleasant and professional. However, I also encountered attitudes that, in my opinion, were profoundly lacking in humanity. One event in particular deeply shocked me: I was humiliated and insulted, as was my son, who has a disability, by a fellow caregiver. At the time, I was completely paralyzed by the violence of her words. The next day, still shaken, I was unable to go to work and wrote a letter detailing the events. Unfortunately, I felt that management did not take the situation seriously. The person involved was only summoned, without any real disciplinary action being taken, to my knowledge. I had the impression that they were more interested in downplaying the events than in acknowledging what I had experienced. This deeply disappointed me and made me feel that employee suffering wasn't being adequately addressed. Looking back, I regret not having filed a complaint, as it might have allowed me to better assert my rights. Based on my personal experience, I advise future employees to be vigilant. Even when you perform your work diligently, you may not receive the support you would expect if you encounter a problem.

A facility for which the change of management brings a sense of renewal. Surrounded by dynamic, stable staff, the management strives for the well-being of residents. They are involved in the new organization to make this facility a pleasant place to live. All the staff are involved and caring, and this is reflected in the atmosphere.

Families, if you truly love your loved ones, you will not place them in this facility, where they risk being neglected by the staff, in squalid rooms, in a living environment devoid of life and joy. Healthcare professionals, if you truly love your profession, you will not practice it in this facility, which forces you to break confidentiality, to neglect your residents, to change bedsores in the dining room in front of other residents due to lack of time, to receive poor guidance from colleagues who spend more time in the break room than providing dignified care to residents, to perform your work quickly and often poorly, and to feel no joy in coming to work.

I agree with Laetitia, this place is a disaster. The management has the audacity to open packages we send to our family and give them the clothes eight days after we receive them, even though they're eagerly awaiting them. It's shameful.

Absolutely top-notch
