Professional and Flexible
Care Giver (Current Employee), Middlefield, CT – May 18, 2013
Pros: support from owners/ managers; flexibility; learning about people in their difficulty
Cons: very little compensation
Visiting Angels is a family owned and operated franchise, which is part of its charm while providing its philosophy of support, not only to the clients and their families, but to their Care Givers as well. They do their best to provide services and feedback. They also provide flexible time and case-load for the workers if there are other obligations.
They – more... hire workers who have already had years of experience in the healthcare field.
What I have enjoyed while working with the clients is, their variety of backgrounds and stories, and through challenges, which were at times difficult, I have learned what I am capable of doing and being while being a part in the clients' lives. – less

St Pete, FL office
CNA (Former Employee), St Pete FL – May 15, 2013
Cons: everything & then some
Poorly run. One of the owners constantly makes poor decisions & disrepects family's wishes. Payroll dept. constantly makes mistakes with your paycheck then tries to blames you. Client billing errors always in favor of the company. Company bills the client for CNA hours then refused to pay the CNA. Employs CNAs who have been arrested. Case managers appear – more... to be unhappy with management. Pettiness, gossiping & childish behavior among CNAs, to the point of contacting the owners & complaining about other CNAs. Unprofessional. This is what happens when someone buys in to a franchise without any background in home healthcare. – less

Not a bad place to work--if you don't mind working hard
Certified Nursing Assistant (Former Employee), MD – May 8, 2013
There is job security in that there is always someone needing help somewhere. The "somewhere" might just not be convenient and the hours are unpredictable. Otherwise, a nice company to work with on part time basis.

Visiting Angels
Traveling Certified Nursing Assistant (Former Employee), Ocala, FL – April 20, 2013
Pros: flexible schedule
Cons: when the client failed to pay the office, you were not paid either
A typical day well, Visiting Angels is an employment agency for nursing personnel. With that said, you compete for jobs. It is based on your availability, and where you wish to travel too. You can have as many clients as you want or as little work as you want. The schedule is based on client requirements. I would say that you learn to deal with different – more... people, because as you know no one is the same. And it was important to take notes so that you could please the client.

Management, well the owner was the manager. He used to have a saying, if you said no, too many times then you would not call be called for clients. You knew how well you were doing by how busy you were. Co-workers, I did not see them too often.

The hardest part of the job was not being prepared for the situations that you were walking into. I remember that I arrived at a home and the client’s family member wanted me to remove my shoes. Well if I had know that she did not want us to wear shoes that we were wearing to the house I would have brought my booties. They are shoe covers that you see in hospitals. The other thing that I found difficult was when I had no time to get to the next client’s home, without be late. I do not like rushing out, then rushing in. Because I felt it was not professional to the clients.

The most enjoyable part of my job was helping my clients. I received the most caring award. I wanted my clients to know that I care, that we were there for them. I did whatever that was in the scope of my position. If they needed to go to the doctor, or if they needed to shop, I was there for them. I asked what they wanted; it was not my job to tell them what to do. Assisting them was the reason that I was there. I was an extension of them for the things that they could not do or did not want to do. Examples are house cleaning, making their lunch. – less

Not truthful to perspective employee in interviews and orientation
Caregiver/Housekeeper/Dog Care giver (Former Employee), Dallas, Tx – April 12, 2013
Pros: no pros
Cons: too many to list ... poor decision to work for them. feel duped!
Applied to this company and was hired a week later after 2 interviews and successful orientation. Career Builder ad stated that both full and part time openings were available and some 4 hour shifts. As requested by the admin, I gave my availability Mon-Sun 7a to 7p. Was told the more flexibility the better the hours. Well, my first 3 weeks of assignments – more... only totaled 12 hours a week (3 4-hour days a week.) I believe this Visiting Angels office defrauded me by advertising one thing and giving me another. PRN and "fill-in" work was not discussed in otientation. The client home I was placed in was FILTHY, smelled of dogs and there was so much clutter it could be classified a fire hazard. It appears the family are "Hoarders". I saw dog hair and mud everywhere. Unsanitary cooking conditions. I would not use their restroom either! I was traumatized by the filthy living conditions. – less

Loved Clients
caregive (Former Employee), West Allis, WI – April 4, 2013
Pros: client interaction
Cons: unfair/ racist( my opinion from their actions
owners were unfair,seemed to put a dollar amount over the need of the client or caregiver. Had to deal with racial remarks complained managers fell to follow up. Only received hours based on skin tone in most cases. The opportunity to work with clients was the most rewarding part because you know every little thing you do mes the most to alot of them
