Great team and family evironment with the overall goal of giving people their lives back
Rehabilitation Liaison (Current Employee), Florence, SC – June 5, 2013
Receive referrals (1-10/day) and review chart clinical data for appropriate criteria. Complete detailed evaluations for facility MD review prior to transfer. Communicate with discharge planners, physicians, patient and families regarding the acute rehab process, patient acceptance and or reason for denials. Initiate insurance precertification process – more... if required. Provide in-service to new physicians and discharge planners that are unfamiliar with acute rehabilitation and the guidelines required for admission.
**Hardest part of the job: the ability to multi task in a fast paced and at times, high stress environment.
** The most rewarding: Without a doubt is the experience of witnessing a patient fight to get their life back after a tragic accident or devastating illness. – less

Fun work place
Student Physical Therapist Assistant (Former Employee), Scottsdale, AZ – May 30, 2013
Pros: fun staff and new patients everyday
Cons: little to no manual therapy
I enjoyed this environment. Fun staff and different patients everyday. I always had to come up with new fun exercises and loved doing so. The most enjoyable part of the job was seeing improvement in the patients. The hardest part of the job was being creative with exercises and ways to make treatment time work. I would have loved to be able to perform – more... more manual treatments. – less

Quantity over Quality is the motto
Therapist (Former Employee), Glendale, AZ – May 3, 2013
Pros: some nice patients and co-workers.
Cons: working weekends and the negative culture.
The best part about working in this rehab factory is that any other job feels like a dream afterward. Mandatory overtime and high caseloads prevail. Simply too many patients for staff to handle effectively. Management is uncaring and dishonest. They work employees like dogs and in general, do not respect them. The patients themselves(the appropriate – more... ones anyway) were delightful. Some were far too sick to be there, but therapists were to drag them to therapy anyway to meet their "intensity". The environment was rife with backstabbing and tattling amongst employees. SO happy to have moved on! – less

HellSouth
Current Employee (Current Employee), York PA – April 23, 2013
Pros: no weekends
Cons: everything from job schedule to pay to benefits
This is disturbing, to see all these comments on this company. I unfortunately have seen it all first hand a little to late. Management is horrible, they do not care about anything but numbers. Policies here are worthless and patient care is questionable. This place is so understaffed its disgusting. I would never have anyone I know have care here or – more... work here for that matter. You dont get paid enough for everything you do and all the gossip....do not tell anyone of your life because its used against you in the end. There should be a warning sign here that says:WORK OR RECEIVE CARE AT YOUR OWN RISK! – less

Terrible place to work I don't recommend it
Nurse (Former Employee), Huntington West Virginia – April 19, 2013
Cons: just terrible place to work. high turn over for the nurses
This place is so under staffed. They don't care about the staff or patients. They just keep cutting staff to patient nurse ratio to keep the bonus for management. No supplies ever you have to scrap by with what you have. I wouldn't take my dog there for care. The nursing staff is so incompetent that's very scary. Would never recommend anyone going there – more... to work. Very dangerous on your licenses if you wanna keep them don't work there. Management don't give raises. It's all about the census an keeping there numbers high so corporate don't know what's really going on. Very scary to put your licenses on the line. DON'T DO IT. Very sad for the employees that are there because there not smart enough to go else where. Sad sad sad scary scary scary!!!! – less

Excellent starter job for recent graduate
learned how to manage time effectively

If you want to keep your license DON'T WORK HERE!
RN (Current Employee), Petersburg va – March 28, 2013
Pros: pay
Cons: not safe at all for pts or employees
CEO just FIRED (GOOD RIDDANCE). He lost the company MILLIONS by bringing the SAME ACUTE patients that are not rehab able. Nurse/pt ratio 6/7/8 in day shift with one tech for about 20 pts. On top of that you are basically your own charge nurse and tech. You attend team conferences, do admissions, rounds with the MD and wipe buts at the same time. If – more... you're a good nurse and you want to make sure everything is complete before you leave, you can on most days leave 3 to 4 hours AFTER your shift ends. Everyone has a back injury lifting those heavy pts without the proper lifting equipment. Upper management is on a witch hunt against nursing. Whenever there's a problem, it's nursing's fault. The is no team work between nursing and therapy. If the pt's pulse ox is 85 and you're trying to give them a breathing tx, you better get it done before 9 so they can get to therapy or you'll have your but handed to you. Still working there until I find something else but don't waste your time or hard work getting your license to work there. I hate being a nurse because of HELLSOUTH!!!!! – less

DO NOT WORK HERE! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!
Runaway Slave (Former Employee), Aldie Va – March 21, 2013
Cons: everything
I LEFT A GREAT COMPANY TO COME WORK FOR THIS DUMP!
MANAGEMENT IS UNFAIR IN EVERYTHING THEY DO FROM SETTING SOMEONE UP TO LOSE THEIR JOB (WHICH HAPPENED TO ME) TO GOSSIPING ABOUT EMPLOYEES TO PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES.
THEY ARE ALWAYS UNDERSTAFFED NO NURSE SHOULD HAVE 10 PATIENTS WHEN MANAGEMENT CAN STEP IN AND HELP WITH THE PATIENT WHILE THE CNO VSH – more... SITS ON HER BIG FAT AZZ ALL DAY. ONLY TIME SHE COMES OUT HER OFFICE IS TO SPY ON THE EMPLOYEES. WHEN SHE'S NOT THERE SHE HAS HER RELATIVE THAT ALSO WORKS THERE SPY AND REPORT – less

Bosco – March 30, 2013

I agree with your comments. I didn't know that the CNO had a relative that works there. Wonder if that staff member reports to the CNO. A big no no. But wouldn't surprise me knowing hellsouth. I hope you find a place that treats you with dignity and respect....all the traits that hellsouth of aldie, va lacks.

Corporate doesn't know any thing
Prefer not to say dt risk of being terminated (Current Employee), Aldie va – March 14, 2013
Pros: nothing
Cons: everything
Don't work here. Management is all about money and revenge no one pulls the rein in on the management. Unless you are spineless and willing to break the law you won't last here. Management style is to instill fear and there is no job security. Ask at your interview how many staff have left the department since it opened 2.5 years Ago that will tell – more... you everything – less

Agree with you. Am still a current employee, but don't know for how much longer. You never know when you will be on the chopping block. Trust no one there!!!!!

afraidtosay – May 20, 2013

This particular facility is known to be terrible and has a bad reputation within the corporation. You have to be pretty bad to be the worst of a horrible company
