Everyone there is very pleasant, and very helpful, from the staff to the consumers. Beautiful campus. the most enjoyable part of the job is getting to know the consumers and the impacting their lives and theirs as well as yours. It feels good to give back in such a was that you don't even realize it.

Not the place to plan a future with
Resident Advocate (Current Employee), Nunica, MI – March 26, 2013
Pros: free lunches, benefits
Cons: low pay, difficult population to work with, not very loyal to employees management is always hiring and firing new staff
I work currently in Behavioral Health. I am just waiting to look for an opportunity to move onto another job because of all the problems here. The consumer population is not ideal, really takes a lot to separate the person from the reason they are there, there are clicks, and there is a lot of hiring and firing. Seems like there are always new employees – more... coming in and going out. Management is also less than ideal, depends on who you are and if you get any favors. Overall, its a good temporary position, but certain not a place or role to make a career out of. – less

Interesting day of work
Caregiver (Former Employee), Utica, MI – March 21, 2013
Pros: individual one on one
Cons: lacks company setting
You work with your consumer and their family. Parent makes the schedule. Usually flexible isn't always in a "job setting" fashion. You do not work with the case load worker or have any contact with any people in the actual company itself.

Great manager! Flexible work arrangement.
Program Nurse (Current Employee), Monroe, MI – February 13, 2013
Pros: p.t.o. personal days as needed. great compassionate calm manager.

Difficult to keep skilled direct care staff, due to low hourly pay rate. Much time in this RN position has been spent training additional employees, who stay only short term. Good experience relating to adults and seniors with disabilities. Good experience managing a facility's medication program.

helping residents with rehab process
Resident Advocate (Current Employee), Nunica, MI – January 27, 2013
I deal with residents that have high mental behavioral problems. So my day at work is very deifferent everyday. My co workers are nice and dependable. the most hardest part is not get so attach to the residents because they only there for a short period of time. My most enjoyable part is to see smiles on their face when they complete the program.

Okay place to work
Recovery Advocate (Former Employee), Grand Haven, MI – January 15, 2013
Cons: no pay raises
I worked here for almost two years and over that time I got one raise and it was a slap in the face. The schedules suck, it is hard to make plans and get a day off.

good place to work in the medical field
Developmental Aide (Former Employee), Grand Rapids, MI – January 15, 2013
Pros: you could work at differnt group homes
Cons: lunch breaks
a typical day at work was fun and productive. I have learned that you have to be patient with others and communicate with others. The home supervisor was great at listening to the employess's. The hardest part about the job was lifting individuals that were heavy. The most enjoyable part about the job was taking individuals out for an outing in the – more... community. – less

Great place to work, loved the people that I worked with and the consumers were a blast to work with as well.
Program Instructor (Former Employee), Wyoming, MI – November 26, 2012
Pros: you will work with some of the best comsumers, and staff will be awesome in helping you with anything that you need.
Cons: the management was a bit slow in replying to response or request from the empoyee's, also the salary is very low for the type of work that is being done by the employee's.
This company is a great place to work, the process was a bit slow in relying information to the employee's, but overall I would forward to anyone who is looking for employment with the company.
