PSA Healthcare Employer Reviews

I have learned much about dealing with families of special needs children. The hardest part of my job was leaving a case. I had daily satisfaction by taking care of wonderful children.

A typical day consisted of arriving at a child's home and performing a head to toe assessment upon arrival. I cared for the child throughout the night. Most were monitored with AB monitors, pulse ox equipment, and my personal assessments. I also provided their personal and individual healthcare. I learned that it is a lot of work and caring to tend – more...  to children with disabilities. The management was a good team located in Pittsburgh, so I did not have much communication with them on a daily basis. I also had the experience of meeting some really great nurses that I respected. The hardest part of this job was also working the nightshift and also being in someone else's home environment for 10 hour shifts. The most enjoyable part of the job was the clients and their individual personalities. – less

Where do I even begin? Lets begin with only men are allowed constant OT! Even when there are plenty of hours to be worked, they would rather leave the family with no nurse then pay a little more for coverage. They are rude in every way possible. They will only be nice to you to get you to work hours that arent your normal scheduled time. When you have – more...  complaints about a case, they DO NOT do anything about it. The nurses are on their own 100%, no support system at all. The pay is below other companies. Yes, you will love your job for the first 3-6 months, but it is all down hill after that. They will pull you off of a case with 0 warning and cut your full time status to 5 hours a week and expect you can afford to drive half way accross the state to fill in on another case. Im sorry, fuel isnt cheap and 5 hours will not fuel my vehicle and pay the bills. the health insurance is a joke. you pay a ton of money to be left with thousands of dollars in bills. it pays the co-pay and your stuck with the balance. no paid sick time, no vacation time. keep looking because if you do get hired, youll be looking again in a a few months! – less

I love working for PSA. I haven't seen a agency ran like them in none of my years of working. I definitly give PSA two thumbs up. EXCELLENT people to work for.

Too much turnover in management. Each new Manager requested different forms of paperwork which kept us constantly faxing to the office.

The managers & schedulers are very unprofessional and throw their nurses "under the bus" repeatedly. There is no support and they seem to employ bitter, old RN's who are at the end of their careers! They will over schedule you (5/12 hour days) if you let them and good nurses are "punished" for holding to their ethics/standards of care for the sake of – more...  $$$. – less
