Fulfilling work
LPN (Current Employee) – Cullman, AL – September 24, 2018
I greatly enjoy working for this company. Our office has a great staff from the office personnel, to the field nurses. I enjoy seeing patients in their homes. Our patient care managers are good at listening to the needs of field nurses and helping in any way they can, be it making calls, dropping off supplies to us in the field, or seeing patients when we are super busy. Our clinic director has an open door policy and is always willing to listen to any complaints, needs, ideas, or concerns. This job does require charting at home and making calls from home to set up your schedule with individual patients. But it also affords a lot of independence and flexibility in your schedule. I see on average 8 patients daily, but it ranges from 6-10 depending on census. The scheduler in my office is very conscientious of our mileage and tries her best to keep it down for us daily. I look forward to growing with this company and highly recommend it.
Pros
Flexibility in schedule, building relationships with patients and families, Pto.
Cons
Occasional long days, wear and tear on vehicle
Company that Cares
Home Office (Current Employee) – Home Office – February 11, 2019
Great culture - leadership truly cares about their employees and their patients. Company provides me with a great salary and benefits. They understand the importance of family and offer the work like balance that I need.
Pros
Work Life Balance
Cons
Communication/Marketing needs improving
highly qualified motivated staff
Pharmacist (Former Employee) – Lafayette, LA – February 5, 2019
I enjoyed working at LHC Group Pharmacy. I have a great deal of respect for the pharmacy administrator. I worked with a highly qualified staff who were more then willing to mentor on a regular basis. The hardest part of the job is working with 23 different facilities with 23 different medical and nursing staffs.
Pros
easy availability of vacation and time off
Cons
none
Physical therapy could be more respected
Physical Therapist Assistant (Former Employee) – Decatur, IL – February 3, 2019
The hardest part of this job is the driving, as they cover seven counties and you expected to cover those areas. The most enjoyable part of the job is the families served which required physical therapy.
Pros
Pay, paid time off
Cons
Not team oriented, poor benefits
Good company, but only a few benefits.
PCT (Patient Care Technician) (Current Employee) – Lafayette, LA – January 28, 2019
A good company, but not enough benefits and no room for advancement.. need to promote what increases in pay!!some employees have enough hours, some too many and others not enough.
Pros
Great hours
Cons
No benefits
Very busy and fast paced office with a relaxed environment
Scheduling Coordinator (Former Employee) – Texarkana, TX – January 24, 2019
Very good teamwork and family type group. We all worked well with and helped one another. The mission to care for ou patients was clear and carried out effectively.
Fair company with unrealistic productivity expectations
PTA (Former Employee) – Salem, OR – January 23, 2019
I’m a Physical Therapist Assistant and have worked for LHC in Salem, Portland and Grant’s Pass Oregon. I initially hired on full time in Salem however was forced to drive up to Portland for work when census dropped. Soon after that mandatory vacation days were required to be used by clinicians due to overstaffing. I became aware of PTA need in Grant’s Pass and proposed to management to send me down there to help out instead of burning my vacation days. Eventually I was transferred to Grant’s Pass full time.
All of the LHC branches were similar. Pay was decent and mileage paid. Benefits available if desired. Management was average. Expected productivity was unrealistic and on the verge of violating labor laws. For PTAs 7 visits a day 5 days a week was required. When productivity was not met a write up from management was added to employees file. 7 visits a day is very difficult to achieve due to the large driving radius and long rough dirt roads. Productivity is much different in rural areas vs urban however corporate refused to recognize this or adjust accordingly. After seeing patients all day clinicians were required to complete all notes that night and call patients before 7pm to set up next day’s schedule. I was paid per visit and most companies are making this standard. It is not generally advantageous to the clinicians as drive time, treatment time, documentation, phone calls, chart review are all grouped into one rate. The compensation per hour doesn’t translate and clinicians end up working more than 40 hours without being paid overtime. As a result the clinicians more... are not happy, office morale drops and quality of care suffers. I have not worked for LHC for years so I’m unsure if they have made changes. If not it will be difficult to maintain quality clinicians. less

Fair wages and good benefits
Occupational Therapist OTR/L (Current Employee) – Lafayette, LA – January 14, 2019
LHC provides fair wages and competitive benefits for full time staff. Free CEU’s through LHC training website. Local/regional management can be vindictive and accusatory without hearing all sides.
Pros
Flexible, fair wages and competitive benefits
Cons
Poor management
typicall large company
Coordinator (Current Employee) – Louisville, KY – January 8, 2019
flexible work hours in certain departments and work from home options kept me here as long as I was. There have been many buy outs in the company and therefore many lay offs. No job security
Pros
remote work, flexible schedule
Cons
work is boring and repetitive
Physical Therapist
Physical Therapist (Current Employee) – KY – January 2, 2019
No work/life balance, not reimbursed for all of your work time, no career ladder or opportunities for advancement, all clinicians are burnt out, high turn over rate. Would not recommend working here if you enjoy free time
review
LPN Home Health Nurse (Former Employee) – Knoxville, TN – December 29, 2018
home visit, vs, medication review, labs, education, wound care, and ect. Charting and order view with doctor. Shots. weekly meeting. Lack of to inform with field staff of visit changes. Adding visits to your schedule without talking to field staff. On call pay not worth the time. No cell phone plan. My cell phone had increase in cost.

Review
HHA/PCA (Current Employee) – Red Hook, NY – December 6, 2018
If it wasnt for the family I work for I would gain employment elsewhere in my area where the pay is greater.
Some employees have terrible phone mannerisms and if you dont live close to an office it's a chore to get in your timesheets.
On the flip, they are fast at getting you placed and all paperwork finished. Also, very friendly in person.

If nothing else is available or looking for few extra $ on the side.....
Therapist (Current Employee) – Florida – December 5, 2018
Not worth it for therapy assistants, few and between work hours. Pay is competitive but again, only few hours per week, maybe good option for casual/extra cash job. The company does not allow for easy advancement, rather hire people from outside.
Slow paced
Rehabilitation Manager, Home Care Connections (Former Employee) – Uvalde, TX – December 4, 2018
The work is doable but the travel going from town to town is tiring and long. Everyone is friendly and helpful.
The hardest part of my job is the long travel from town to town to see patients.
The most enjoyable part of my job is working with patients and their families.

Cover my own sick days
