Branch office, pleasant staff
Registered Nurse (Current Employee), Belpre, OH – March 25, 2013
Pros: work schedule, appropriate staff/patient ratios
Cons: minimal incentives, pay raise freeze for past three years
This office is conveniently located, staff work well together. Coworkers are pleasant and willing to work together to deliver quality in home patient care. Due to company cutbacks, a few key positions have been eliminated. Office management staff are located several hours from the office.

Antiquated, Stuck in the Past , Cheap
Past (Former Employee), USA – March 7, 2013
Pros: some friendly people
Cons: i wouldnt have them work with my family medical needs
A company that was built up in the heyday of DME when Medicare paid $100 a month for a bedside commode. As times have changed, tis company has done very little to keep up with it. Their store managers are overworked, underpaid, and dont care about the business except if a manager is coming to visit. Appearances dont matter to the company, their stores – more... look like something from the 1970s. In summary its a country bumpkin company. I mean, they have old pc's with the old tube monitors in their offices, many are still operating on Windows 98 and half the people dont even know how to operate those. The company needs to be bought by a modern company or something or invest – less

Bad work enviroment
Location Manager (Current Employee), Seneca SC – February 17, 2013
I love the field of Medical Services of America; which is DME. However, my manager tells me to discipline my employees and when I try to she overrides by decisions. This has left me without any respect from certain employees. Also, I am location manager who is also holding 3 other positions in the office. The compensation is horrible!

Freedom
Respiratory Clinician (Former Employee), Johnson City, TN – January 20, 2013
Cons: jealous office staff
Not a bad company to work for although the territory is too large to be managed by one clinician. The pay is ok but the mileage is very low and the amount of driving is not worth the wear and tear on your personal vehicle.

Local Branch of MSA needs serious improvement
Patient Service/Customer Service Rep (Former Employee), Ardmore, OK – January 5, 2013
Pros: getting to help the best patients in the world.
Cons: the boss, the co workers
I am sure Medical Services of America as a whole and as the corporate company is an excellent place to work but come to a local branch affliated by them in Ardmore, OK and they just suck. The local branch is called Arbuckle Medical and they are just horrible to work for. The boss there Bryan Scott is a horrible manager, if you haven't worked there long – more... don't expect him to be on your side on anything. He likes to stick up for people who have worked there longer and doesn't do anything if you haven't worked there long. Think twice before deciding to work for these people at this place! – less

Medical Services of 1973
Account Executive (Former Employee), Eastern United States – September 24, 2012
Pros: large coverage area
Cons: poor management, inadequate staffing, and health care from the past.
This company mat have been in business since 1973, but they have yet to realize it is no longer 1973. This company is so out dated that they could never compete with competition such as Amedisys, LHC or Gentiva.
They spread out staff so thin in order to save a dollar, that they loose in the end. Sad part is that they do not even realize what poor decisions – more... they are making.
Management is unprofessional and unable to preform strategic planning it requires to maintain a professional work atmosphere, as well as professional patient care.
Marketing budgets are nearly nonexistent at $250 per month. Forget doing a luncheon with a physician office (which is what it takes to get the business). Company requires that you obtain a W-9 from any location even chick-fil-a to purchase anything over $25. You have a $7 budget per person to buy food items with.
No marketing budget to purchase promotional items, or collaterals. When you work for this company it is a total embarrassment.
It could be a good company to start out with to get home health or sales experience, but not somewhere you would ever be able to make a career.
If you are not a person who enjoys changing jobs every six months, then this company will not be for you!!
Company will not reimburse what they owe you in a timely manner. It was nothing to be owed $1,200 at a time just in expenses that were spent out on the companies behalf. So if you need your payday and can't afford to foot the bill for your employer, I would also look elsewhere.
Save yourself a headache! – less

Don't expect to get rich here if you are a nurse
RN (Former Employee), Myrtle Beach, SC – June 22, 2012
Pros: caring middle management
Cons: low pay for skilled nursing
Pay is lower for home health nurses than all other home care agencies in the area. Promise you a substantial raise in three months if you will take the job at a low rate, and then they give you a minimal raise only. Benefits are okay but expensive.

Cons: people and low pay
This company knows nothing about home care. They are so antiquated with their software and systems. I wouldn't let them take care of my grandmother/grandfather.

Company with great potential.
Location manager (Former Employee), Ridgeland, Hilton Head and Beaufort, SC. – December 15, 2011
Pros: unique in its category of business.
Cons: pay scale and short staffing.
Obtained a lot of knowledge with the training this company provided. With the potential this company has it could greatly benefit from having more staff, incentives and a larger pay scale.

Would not recommend
Account executive (Former Employee), Roanoke, VA – August 31, 2011
If your looking for a job that can be a challenge then this is it! The downside is that once the challenge is over and you want more it doesn't happen! Advancement isn't there and the pay and benefits aren't enough!
The corporate office will keep adding more and more to you but don't even give raises even when your evals are excellent! I will miss my – more... co-workers but not the drama and backstabbing! Jumping thru hoops well you better be good at it and prepared to do it daily all day long!
Goodluck bc u will need it!!! – less
