Scottish Nursing Guild Anmeldelser 533

It is a pleasure to be part of the SNG team, the team always makes you feel appreciate, always kept up-to date on changes and always there 24 hr for advise

I have worked with The Scottish Nursing Guild now for aver a year. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with them. I love the flexibility of choosing my own shifts round my family life. I always get paid on time. I would highly recommend Scottish Nursing Guild.

Have worked for the Guild for 3 years now and would highly recommend them as a Nursing agency.

Even when I had a serious car accident and was hospitalised they sent beautiful flowers which was a lovely gesture and several follow up emails to make sure I was ok and recovering well.

The pay is fantastic!! And I feel well supported in all I do

Nearly 7 years i have worked for this fantastic company, best decision i ever made. i am always treated with respect and everything they do it completed to a high standard. i wouldn't work for any other agency

I have over 22 years experience in Palliative care. I have experience as a phlebotomist and a swapping for Covid. I was told it's not in an acute settings or in a medical ward therefore l would not have the required qualifications as a HCA. I mean really are you looking for HCA staff or not? No wonder the health care system is all over the place if they have a agent like SNG hiring staff. I think SNG needs to look up the meaning of Palliative

Scottish Nursing Guild can make up all the excuses in the world. A Healthcare assistant is a Healthcare assistant. Going on to any medical ward, palliative care ward or Care of the elderly ward, it is about having compassion with dealing with patients. We don't hand out medications as HCA's. I actually think SNG have not got a clue about what really happens on any ward. After all it' is an Agency and therefore run by Administration. Clueless

I had been with the SNG for over 17 months, and generally had had no issues. Recently however I have had to spend 1 month chasing up payment owed to myself and the experience has been dire to say the least. I have yet to be paid, I am assured on every call to payroll it will be ‘paid as soon as possible’, yet here we are 1 month later and still no payment. More annoyingly is the fact that it is down to me to keep chasing this, no one I have spoken to takes responsibility to ensure I am paid. This has drastically reduced my confidence in the Guild as a trustworthy employer.

Great organisation to work for, always on hand to give support 24/7 if you run into a problem. Value their staff and that is reflected in the rate of pay and other incentives. Easy booking system using an app. Only criticism I’d have would be the length of time from application to sign off, it appeared there was a miscommunication regarding my PVG that resulted in a delay. When highlighted, it was dealt with that day and I was signed off within the week. I’ve now worked 6 shifts and I’m really enjoying working for SNG. Grateful to be part of their organisation. Would recommend 100% - various people I work with in the NHS have applied.

Apparently due to the fact I work in a medical observation unit as well as doing nursing bank shifts in both medical and surgical wards I do not have enough experience to be clinically governed to be on the agency? Although I am able to take bloods, iv, meds, dressings etc. this is not enough?

Following this poor response from guild I'd also like to add my ward is open at night. And we're a medical assessment unit so we do look after extremely
Unwell patients.with a wide variety of patients so I don't understand where your excuses are coming from

Please update this. I got a phone call today and was interviewed. But due to lack of hospital experience, I was turned down and advised to reapply after 6 months. I may only be working in Hospital settings for a month. But, I received a number of training to prove my qualifications as band 3. I also worked as HCA for over 5 years prior working in Hospitals and has RQF Level5 qualification. Stop attracting people by putting up incomplete requirements on your website.

Would not recommend.

Very happy working with the guild hours flexible excellent pay and bonuses gives you an incentive to work extra shifts. An added bonus for me is that it is so nice to be appreciated and thanked for doing your job.

Great company to work for , excellent rates of pay. Easy to access shifts would recommend.

My 5 STAR pick is my valuation considering your response to Individual Issues as it affects the staff.
In the area of CPD of Individual staff your give a push to always be Informed on individual career and upgrade to meet present professional requirements or demand.
Your Prompt Payment is an encouragement to exploit the unknown on the field of assignment.

So far the rest of the team is very good except the payroll team which had put us under a tight corner of after working we should suffer also to get our pays by the strictness of PDFs. It’s not easy really. We will be happy if the rule can be loosened for our benefits as well. Thanks

Excellent performance.
Professionalism at its best.

Brilliant company to work for. Great communication. App is perfect for booking shifts etc.
payrol department could be improved

Love the staff. Always helpful and at the end of a phone if needed .

Professional, efficient and overall positive experience so far since working with SNG (Jan 2021)

Thank you team!

Love this agency, professional, caring and encouraging.
