CROSSROADS HOSPICE Employer Reviews

Management is poor. Lots of micromanaging..not alot of explanation when it comes to change within the department. Write up are common. When you defend yourself, save your breath, management does' t care.

Company no longer in business. Staff provided good patient care.

Wonderful hospice care services provided to Dayton area. Fast paced environment. Management seems to "fly by the seat of their pants" at times, but overall has good intentions. Co-workers friendly, hard-working and "angels". Hardest part of job is coping with loss of patients after establishing rapport and relationship. The most enjoyable part of job – more... is giving the patient and their family and loved ones the best hospice care in the area. – less

values of company re: patient care are good.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Provide social services to patients and their families. I loved working with the patients and their families. They made the work fun. Management made it not fun. They have a very micromanagement style. They watch your every move and write you up with no question asked. The hardest part of the job is having to deal with the stress from management.

there management skills are terrible they are constantly changing the rules and policies that never effect the people in the office they do not back there employess EVER!!!!!! they talk a good game but work there and you will find out its all B.S. they claim to care about the people buts all comes down to the amount of$$$ they can get run from this – more... place – less

dishonest mgmnt from the start,tried to work around it but this was a mistake to take this job

Stayed out of office as much as possible. Provided direct care to patients. Case load high and spread out geographically. Going from one side of service area to the other daily. Care team was in constant change. Management team very dysfunctional, micromanaged. Got written up for every tiny little detail like being late for your call in report. Most – more... of my coworkers were really great. There were those that were self serving and back stabbing. Hardest part of the job was managing increasing case load. Most enjoyable part of the job was patients. – less

has had lots of turnover since I left, some of it was way past due

When I first started working for Crossroads Hospice their philosophy of care was above reproach. While they have struggled to maintain this philosophy, and their field staff works diligently to do so daily, their leadership has lost touch and lost sight of their primary goal and only cares about the bottom line. Worse yet, they DO NOT value their employees. – more... The work environment is punitive, hostile and write-ups are a given for just about any and every reason.
While Crossroads currently still offers a service that is a cut above the rest, this is mostly due to their caring staff. Crossroads Hospice is at high risk of becoming just another number crunching hospice that gives average care. – less

Me and my dog loved going around to the nursing homes and seeing the people.

Miscommunication. Mismanagement. Misunderstandings! The Cincinnati office is a joke! The "leaders" are too busy lunching and buying diet cokes to even have half a clue what's going on. Meanwhile they are all living together which is a great practice?! No direction no plan no tools to do your job. Embarrassing.

Once a wonderful place who cared about patients and employees. To much change in wrong direction, you MUST live to work, not work to live. No balance between family/ life and work. Employees get frequent write ups for no reason, or in my case alledged behavior as a patients medical power of attorney was used against me as employee (hostile work enviroment?) – more... Fantastic Clinical staff, Social Workers, Chaplins, Medical records personnel...poor management. – less

As a volunteer at this company, I found that the nurses, physicians, families and staff all care about the patients served by Crossroads Hospice.

The staff is friendly and very concerned about the welfare of their patients.

The staff also provides bereavement services to the families of patients.

Fabulous learning opportunity. Really nice co-workers. Loved this job very much.

I appreciated the experience Crossroads Hospice gave me .The people were very friendly and eager to help customers. The company always tried to make sure every employee succeeded successfully in the work place. Most importantly , every year the staff would have get togethers with their patients.

MANAGEMENT IS SOMETHING ELSE, I WORK MY EVERY DAY OFF ALWAY'S ACCUSE OF DOING THIS OR THAT MY PERFORMANCE WAS NEVER ENOUGH I GAVE MY JOB MY BEST MY PATIENTS LOVE ME AND I LOVE SOME OF MY COWORKER ONLY TIME WE REALLY GOT TO SEE EACH OTHER WAS AT MONDAY MORNING MEETINGS,ME LEAVING MY PATIENT ,FAMILIES

Scheduling and Staffing for 230 employees and over 400 patients. Ordering Supplies. Overseeing DME budget. Interviewing new staff. Evaluating the performance of employees. Mentoring new staff. OnCall Clinical Team leader.

Monday morning meetings.Great way to stay informed about changes going on within the co.

Professional atmosphere with focus on excellent care of hospice patients. Office atmosphere was also pleasant; co-workers were interesting and some were great fun.
My work day started with report from the DON at 1600. I would make visits, admit patients, follow patients to ER is necessary, I supervised one HHA as they moved the LPN I had worked with – more... closely to day shift. We also had back-up RN and HHA assigned each evening. My day ended by 2400, unless some calls took place late and I was required to make late visits. After 2400, I reviewed my paperwork, gave report via telephone to all staff, and faxed my activity and mileage log to the office.
The most difficult part of my job was stress at times if I had many visits and more than one death. I was attempting to transfer to a day shift on-call position. I truly love working with hospice patients, and meeting their caregivers. – less
