I work in a long term care home that’s a Private company in Canada and is worth Billions of dollars. They would rather lie to us and say that the food gets saved for the residents when the leftovers get thrown in the trash. Staff ask at the end of meals if there are any leftovers if we could have some because most of us can’t even afford to buy food. That way instead of it getting thrown into the garbage it actually goes into a person’s mouth.

They cut down the food budget by $700 for the residents and they don’t even give us enough chocolate chip cookies to even give every single resident a 2 bite cookie. We have 45 beds and we get a dozen cookies made.

A billion dollar company would rather throw away food, make portions small, and not feed staff.

I hate it here.

While at the public hospital they feed staff and if there are any leftovers they make sure the staff is fed.

Private companies that are more focused on shareholders and keeping the CEO’S network at 11 million CAD is more important than fed residents and fed staff.

Then they wonder why no one goes into healthcare and why they can never retain staff.
