Pros

COFK is great for flexibility; however the micromanaging is a bit over the top. They are constantly checking your schedule and dropping admits, evals, screenings and drive by visits at any available time openings.

Cons

Micromanaging, suggestions to add more severe ratings to evaluations, no work life balance consideration, unethical behavior recommendation from top down, leadership team is drill sergeant style, lack of community connection, physician offices complain about marketer and low referral rates. Supervisors expect 8-10 re-evaluations a week all over the city and surrounding areas. No training no support

Texas Medicaid consist of many rules which can be perceived as "micromanaging". Home Health in Texas is a highly regulated environment. Following the rules and laws to ensure compliance will always be a top focus of COFK. Survey results from Texas DADS was perfect in the fall of 2014 with no survey violations of state standards or deficiencies, a rare occurrance for the size of organization COFK is. Unethical behavior is never tolerated. 90.1% of all employees of COFK in a recent survey trust their management and leadership of COFK. Overall, employees rank the culture and ethical behavior at levels to exceed 90%. COFK uses extensive protocols, sufficient assessments and original assessments. Finally, COFK offers a full scale transparent HIPAA compliant IT tool with electronic patient records and tools for therapist and the use of paper is not required due to extensive capabilities of the COFK COMPASS/SHAREPOINT Clinical program. Recommendations from surveys and employee "stay interviews with existing employees" do not reflect the nature of this posted review or the recommendations of management.

Pros

Excellent Company and excellent pay. Management works hard to build communication. The management supports therapists in various situations including compliance problems that occur with families. The company however is limited on the alternatives available to enforce compliance by families. Routine office meetings for therapy leads is routine with good communication. Some therapist complain about the inconvenience then complain if they don't have a meeting. The Company is working hard to identify and separate those therapist committed to the culture and support of the patients. The patients are the customer and management recognizes that. The Clinical Outcomes is the most exciting elements of this organization. Very much on the leading edge of clinical innovation!

Cons

No job or company is perfect. Would love to make more money. Medicaid drives reimbursements which ultimately creates compensation. Would like to see more fun company events.

Pros

There are wonderful people working in the office and their efforts create a general sense of teamwork. It's a generally positive environment that rewards and praises hard work. Geographical monthly meetings with other therapists are fun and a great way to harness the multitude of Medicaid changes. The management actually listens to employees and takes their advice.

Cons

The management does not support therapists in compliance situations they encounter and does not avoid intimidating non-compliant families. The pay you get when you start won't change for several years. Bonuses and pats on the back have kind of dwindled. Occasional office meetings are inconvenient and a waste of time.
