Best Companies to Work for in BC 2008

Nurse Next Door Home Healthcare Services
Ranked # 8 (Top companies with more than 100 employees)

"We have a single mother in the call centre and her little boy spends an hour with us every day before he goes to daycare. Even during spring break we had a few little ones spend a day with us and no one minded." 

When the managers at Nurse Next Door took a look at their staff and asked themselves, “What do they need most?” they came up with the mommy shift. The 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. schedule is perfect for mothers of young children who want to be around their youngsters when school’s out. And so what if there’s a toddler or two wobbling about the cubicles during work hours? It’s part of the way the B.C. franchise home care provider chooses to take care of its own people. And when your whole operation consists of your staff serving customers face-to-face, your business is only as good as your employees.
