Is a good company to start and learn the field of home care. I appreciated the learning process and the support I had until I was required to perform more than 30 pts at week. Unfortunately, they are so disorganized with scheduling.

Would not recommend - Saint Louis

Patient Services Coordinator (Former Employee) - St. Louis, MO - January 23, 2023

Unrealistic job expectations. You could literally work 12 hours a day and still not meet the expectations that are given.Not enough staff, keep taking new patients and can’t even take care of existing ones. Company needs to start refresh and reorganize current structure. I’ve never been talked to and treated the way I did at this company. Work is too much and too stressful, they make it hard to want to work there. Cried more at this job than any job I’ve had ever.

Pros

None

Cons

Everything

Great place to work, unfortunately no patients

LPN (Former Employee) - Butler, PA - January 17, 2023

Worked as a field nurse doing skilled nursing visits. Love, loved my director and my supervisor.2 issues....1.No RN support from field case managers made me feel like a lone wolf. 2. No patients for me in area in which I was hired and ensured full time work made me drive further and further for far less patients, until the point I was working less than full time.Sadly that ended my tour with the company. I absolutely loved my job, felt supported by my director, even paying for my IV certification. Company car which I could use for personal-fleet card with low cost to enter Fleet program. I'd go back quite honestly if the caseload was in my area, and given the current climate with local hospitals aligning with other agencies, don't see that happening.

Decent place to work.

Physical Therapist (Former Employee) - Gastonia, NC - January 14, 2023

Great pay. As long as you’re busy. Documentation is the main con. High turnover with management. Somewhat inconsistent expectations. Team is great, although somewhat undervalued.

Pay, the patients

Cons

Documentation, high office turnover

Management doesn’t care about outcomes

LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) (Current Employee) - Anniston, AL - January 9, 2023

Management cares more about numbers than patient outcomes . Constantly overscheduled and all field staff are burnt out so the turnover rate is high .

Business Associate (Former Employee) - Uniontown, PA - January 6, 2023

Bad place to work run you to death, overwork you put you down and supervisor sleep in office I have seen many employees flip out because of how the management handled them and it didn’t have to go the way it did

Management with poor ethics

On Call RN (Former Employee) - Monongahela, PA - January 4, 2023

The admin team was awful though. They lied to patients and manipulated them to get them to agree to admissions; even when they did not want hospice care. There was massive amounts of turnover. They did not really seemed to care, they were dismissive and honestly really never made anyone feel like they were part of the team. I had worked for the Scottsdale branch previously and was injured and never had these issues. It was a totally different experience, so I know the company has the potential to be great. Just not that branch. It was harried.

Good report with fellow nursing cohorts

Registered Nurse (RN) (Former Employee) - Chesapeake, VA - December 28, 2022

Able to plan day effectively. Good interactions with family and patients. Management not supportive and micromanaged time put in to ensure families were adequately prepared to take care of patient. Attrition rate is high due to this. Hardest part was being acknowledged for good work. Only the inner cliques were able to be advanced. Most enjoyable moment was resignation

Pros

Development of Strong education for preparation for hospice and end of life care

Cons

Management as a whole

Hospice Liaison (Former Employee) - Dallas-Fort Worth, TX - December 26, 2022

They expected an outlandish number of in-person contacts per day, even during COVID.This was one of the worst career decisions I have ever made.Do not work for their DFW locations.

Okay workplace

SLP (Current Employee) - Arkansas - December 26, 2022

Flexible schedule. Not compensated well for drive time. Work and life balance difficult to manage. Communication among team members lacking. Corporate does nothing to show appreciation. Yearly cost of living raises are insignificant

Great place to work

AVP, Operations Manager (Current Employee) - Northeast - December 23, 2022

Healthcare overall is hard. Some of the best caregivers work here. Most of those that leave eventually come back. Company overall tries very hard to make patients and employees top priority.
