Great place to work
Receptionist/ Caregiver (Former Employee), Baton Rouge, La –
Pros: great company
Cons: unorganized
It was a great place to work but some of the management team was unorganized so it made it hard to work in the office, but I picked up the slack and moved on

Right At Home
Caregiver (Former Employee), Charleston, WV –
Pros: nice office staff, nice owner
Cons: no benefits, no overtime, no room for promotion, no wage increases
My hours on about 20 hrs a week. I did like my client and office staff including the owner are nice. Im just saying for me it was a job while I was school but the company might work for someone else.

The Illusion of a Job
CNA (Former Employee), Knoxville, TN –
Pros: you have a "temporary" job
Cons: no hours, no benefits, you grow increasingly poor
There are many agencies around the Knoxville, TN. area who will only interview to develop a roster, without any intention of placing you into meaningful employment. RAH sincerely tried to avoid this practice, but the availability of work was still limited at best. The quality of case work was very good, many clients were a pleasure to work with. Pay – more...  rate is on the average side. Without any benefits to speak of, and the pay rate being what it is, you could almost do better baby sitting close to home. Inevitably, if the franchise model for home health care doesn't change, medical professionals will steer clear of agencies and work at hospitals, or change careers altogether. – less

Funny place to work
Home Care Assistant (Current Employee), Louisville, KY –
Pros: smiles and making people happy
Cons: if something happens to them and you leave.
Taking care of seniors that are not totally independent. To be patient and relax. I worked a lone and the hardest part of the job is if you get attached to one of you employee and then they either die or you leave the company. The enjoyable the smiles and seniors talking about their history.

Decent management, but not a career oriented organization.
Home Health Aide (Former Employee), Grand Rapids, MI –
Pros: r.a.h. was able to work around my availability
Cons: i had too much availability, and worked few hours with this organization.
The management were kind-hearted, but the pay was low and advancement was an impossibility. Don't plan on getting full time hours!!

Everyday something new
Caregiver (Former Employee), Santa Clara, CA –
I was working on call. It was really useful because I applied the techniques and the knowledge I acquired from taking care my grandparents. I used to travel from place to place meeting new people and learning about my clients. hardest part of the job was to say goodbye but the most enjoyable part was that they are part of you and that I have the opportunity – more...  to learn from them. – less

Didnt feel right at Home
Caregiver (Former Employee), Litchfield Park, AZ –
They assigned me to this man's house very nice guy but i didnt understand why i was assigned there. His family members were in the house the whole time but stayed upstairs. One day i drove a thirty minute drive for them to tell me they didnt need me. They never assigned me to anyone else so I had to find a new job.

Not worth giving up my previous job for
Human Resource Administrator (Former Employee), Wheeling, WV –
I was recruited to work at Right At Home, promised better pay and benefits and training. In reality, I was shown my desk and told to start work. Was never told what that work actually was and ridiculed from the first day I was there. Day two I was told there was no benefits, they were just "thinking about having them". I stuck it out for a couple weeks – more...  trying to do what I thought I needed to do.
Owner came in one day and insisted that I work someone elses shift (in someones home over night) and I would not be getting paid for it since it must have been my fault the other worker called off at the last minute. Still not clear how that could have been.
This was the one and only job I ever quit. – less

not a long term job
Caregiver (Current Employee), Michigan –
when they hire you they give you the impression that theres sooo much work. NOT!!!

*They call you last minute asking can you work cases.and sometimes the cases are too far that the money you make per hr wouldnt even compensate the gas you used getting there

*they dont have all their facts straight,alot of times they dont know much about the clients – more...  before they send you there ..theyre all about a CHECK.They are not very informative i have to pry answers outta them

*the company gets paid the exact same amount as you do for working the case, ODD.

*They hire ALOT of people on the spot. SKETCHY!

*i believe their insurance is ala carte or some BS. Pretty much u dont get insurance. I highly doubt if theres raises

*i used this job last minute when i needed my c,n,a license renewed..i needed to work 8 hours minimum in a health care setting within two years in order to renew my certification so thisnjob came in handy

*its very unsteady random homes you get sent to..you will be lucky if you get 3 hours a week at this job seriously. They try to spread their clients out between 3-4 people instead of giving one person 5 days a week they would split those days between two ppl. – less

To be avoided
Caregiver (Current Employee), Long Island –
Pros: they don't really seem to care about background
Cons: a job factory, the clients come and go fast.
This is the sort of thing you do until you find a better job. No one stays any longer than they need to.

This is a franchised business. The owner can either be great or a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Be aware, there is no corp. office to really complain to if you are treated unfairly.

brian – January 17, 2012

Your pretty much on call with no guarentee of many or any hours. They hire you on the spot with no interview or do they explain money or hours or how it works., pretty much your left in the dark ..They require you to sign a 2 year non complete contract even though they do not guarentee part time or full time work. The client can cancel at the last moment but your suppose to give them 4 hour notice if you cant make it to a job.

Philip – April 6, 2012

Before caregivers can become employed with Right at Home of North Shore Long Island in Hicksville, NY and begin caring for clients, they go through two professional reference checks, background clearance, competency testing, and personal interviews. Applicants that meet this criteria and are selected then go through a comprehensive orientation process that educates them on policies and procedures. They are insured and bonded, and matched with clients based on services needed, client interests, and personalities of both the client and caregiver.
