Voyage Care Arvostelua

How can you have such an opinion of a place that you've never worked?

You see, those of us who actually work for the company and in the building have no knowledge of you... You speak of honesty yet hide behind a fake name?

Evil wins when liars have access to platforms and can do nothing better than to spout nonsense and hide behind false names...

Elisabeth Ives

It's folk like you who don't give a rats ass about vulnerable adults! Do you suffer from mental health and spoke to management about it? No I didn't think so, so why not keep your options to yourself! Voyage Care is THE best and ARE understanding about mental health and they do help you through it.

⭐ Review of Voyage Care – Tweedlodge, Edinburgh

I have worked with Voyage Care at Tweedlodge, Edinburgh for 8 years, and it has truly been one of the best companies I have ever worked for. The level of care and compassion shown to the people we support is outstanding, and the training provided is extensive and empowering.

Voyage Care has given me the opportunity to grow, learn, and feel valued in my role. The team culture is supportive, and the focus on dignity and respect makes a real difference every day. I am proud to be part of an organisation that consistently puts people first and invests in its staff.

I would highly recommend Voyage Care to anyone looking for a career in care or seeking a provider that genuinely delivers quality care and compassion.

I have been working on the bank for over 2 years with voyage care. I have suppoted in most services including Tweed Lodge where staff are brilliant and the care and support is out of this world. I have recently decided after 20 years of working with the council to go full time with Voyage. This decision has been the best decision I have ever made. The support I have received from colleagues and management has been second to none. I was supported by Voyage through the transition period and made the decision due to the amazing teams, excellent training, support, regular supervisions, and the dedication that staff have towatds the people we support. Management are available 24/7 and will come help at a moments notice. Stephanie Barr recently came to my aid during a difficult shift and supported us to ensure we were ok and felt supported. Norma Muir and the management have been kind supportive and always around when needed. Management get involved in all activities and support with PWS and its clear they are well liked by staff and PWS.
It saddens me that when people leave Voyage they feel the need to target the service as it shows more about them than the people they bad mouth. Norma has an open door policy and will support any staff who are struggling and will offer alternatives and support. Its unfair that disgruntled ex staff who were incapable of doing their job have the audacity to slander good hard working people. I will always stand up for what I belive in and call out anything I feel needs addressed.

I have worked a voyage for 5 months it is one of the best care company I’ve worked for the training it very good and the staff and the manger are all very supportive and i always feel welcome every shift I come on I really enjoy being there at voyage care

I have worked for this company for 4+years and I have never regretted joining this company the training is second to none my manager is very supportive and encourages all her staff to do well. The people we support receive fantastic care in a friendly positive environment for both staff and residents if you are committed to providing excellent care then you will excel with voyage care

I have worked at voyage care in Edinburgh for 2 and half years. This was my first job in the care industry, the staff and the management have been the best support to me since day one. I have gone from support worker to senior support worker by working hard and learning the job thanks to the support from my managers.
It breaks my heart to see such negative reviews towards a company and toward management who only do their absolute best to make sure that the people who are supported have the best chance at everything they want and need.
These negative reviews are from disgruntled ex-employees who did not ‘care’.
This is a great place to work, and you’ll do well here if you’re compassionate, caring and have integrity.

Stephanie Barr is clearly an idiot!! Who is in the area managers pocket. Nor is this a fake profile. I lasted a month with this excuse for a care company In Edinburgh The home was badly organised and the staff extremely clique. Basic rules were being broken.
The manager held court in the office and had favourites.
In the end following a very trying day with a rude, bossy member of staff and having an accident after work, I decided I couldn't face working in such a toxic environment

My experience working for this service in Edinburgh was extremely negative and had a serious impact on my mental health. Although things started off ok-ish, the atmosphere quickly changed and became increasingly hostile. What I experienced felt like a pattern of intimidation, dismissiveness, and unprofessional behaviour coming from the senior manager. She joked & pressed her will on others, inappropriately at times with the things she'd say & her attempt at humour.

In my personal experience, she created an environment where staff felt constantly on edge. I found her attitude aggressive and unpredictable — if you questioned anything or raised a concern, she could turn nasty very quickly. It often felt like nothing you said or did could calm the situation once she became angry, and somehow the blame always ended up being placed back on you.

Several members of staff I worked with also described feeling uncomfortable or bullied, and more than one person left because they didn’t want to continue working under her. From my perspective, the other managers beneath her are aware of her behaviour but unwilling or too afraid to challenge it. The whole dynamic left many of us feeling unsupported and anxious.

One of the hardest parts for me was feeling that the people we support were not always prioritised in the way they should have been. Appointments, health concerns, or genuine needs sometimes felt secondary to whatever event or idea she wanted to push at the time. As someone who believes in fair treatment of people/staff and service users, I found this incredibly upsetting.

This was my first job in the care industry, and unfortunately it has put me off the sector entirely. I left feeling unwell, stressed, and exhausted by the constant tension. The fact that so many long-term staff have raised similar concerns suggests that these issues have gone on for far too long. I feel really sorry for anyone that has to continue or in the future, has to encounter her.

I would strongly encourage anyone experiencing the same to formally report it. No one should have to work in an environment that feels unsafe, unsupported, or damaging to their health.

Since I have started I have a lot of opportunity to learn and build my experience, the job developed my knowledge and character

I have worked for Voyage Care for 10 years and have loved every moment of my journey from deputy manager to operations manager. I have supportive managers and peers and all the support from our cross functional teams in our head office.
The people we support are amazing and it is a real privilege to watch them grow and thrive in our wonderful homes.

Working here in Edinburgh can be extremely difficult because of the toxic culture that’s been allowed to develop. The environment often feels bullying in nature and is ruled by fear, which has had a huge impact on staff wellbeing. People have spoken about feeling depressed, anxious, and even having thoughts of suicide because there’s nowhere to turn once you’ve been targeted.

If you do your job properly, rather than being supported, you can be made to feel like a problem. Serious incidents are brushed aside or covered up instead of being risk assessed properly, simply because too much paperwork might reflect badly on management. This creates a very unsafe and unhealthy workplace.

That said, many of the staff are absolutely fantastic and work hard every day to provide the best support possible. With the right leadership — a manager who had the ability to show kindness and care — this could be an amazing place to work. Sadly, under the current way of running things, that support just isn’t there.

Terrible customer service, just straight rude and treats their clients horribly and most likely their employees too

Awful, and I don’t even like leaving bad reviews but this was needed

Horrible company that doesn’t treat its employees fairly

I don’t often write reviews on my experiences with a company, but I couldn’t not shine a light on how utterly disgraceful and downright awful my time with ‘Voyage Care’ was. The people that run this firm need to be investigated immediately for their complete lack of competence. The so called ‘manager’ that was appointed to helping me and my son can only be deemed a bully- his actions towards me and other carers was absolutely atrocious!
I can only hope that others will steer clear of this organisation and seek help elsewhere.

Treated my friend who worked there like garbage during a hard time, he had just been diagnosed and then they started treating him very badly, the manager is very stuck up and runs the company like a dictatorship PLEASE AVOID!!

I have worked for Voyage Care in Edinburgh for the past two years and can honestly say that it has been one of the best working experiences of my career, this is due in large part to a management style and approach which fosters a healthy and respectful work environment. I have seen first hand the difference this service makes in people’s lives. The people we support are treated dignity, respect and kindness in all aspects of their lives. Teams work hard to meet the needs of the people they support, and I have seen real, meaningful and lasting improvements in the quality of life for the people they support.

From my own experience I have been impressed by the professionalism, the warmth and generosity of the staff members, the camaraderie, and a genuine commitment by staff to doing what is right for each person.

I have no hesitation in highly recommending Voyage Care to anyone looking for high quality, person-centred support.

I have been with Voyage, Edinburgh for over 7 years
Progressing in my role with the full support from managers.
Reading these toxic reviews from “Charlotte” and “MrNice” is the funniest as it is all LIES, please do not listen! Fake accounts that can’t use their real name - I mean that tells you everything!

The people we support are cared for by some amazing people - they care deeply!!
I have had full support from Norma and she pushes me to be better - which just so happens to have gotten me to Regional Finals for Voyage Awards - something I would never have thought I could achieve, but she always said I could!!!
I travel 40 miles to get to work because I enjoy Voyage - I could have a job across from my house with different care provider but I wouldn’t risk leaving a good thing!
I mean you can ask the Care Inspectorate what she thinks of Voyage Edinburgh .. awarding us 6s!

I've worked for this company for the last 3 years and the training and support is fantastic. Management are only a message or phone call away to help. As for the PWS i have witnessed first hand the great support they recieve and the joy they have meeting up with the friends. Im sure most of these negative reviews are former employees who are exactly that for a reason. I dont normally leave reviews but I'm shocked at what lies people can write

Worst Company i have ever worked for. If you’re in Edinburgh Scotland avoid them. The manager is the worst person you can ever deal with. She is set up to ruin people’s careers. Such a bully, inconsiderate.
