Pros
Being a "Corporation" you get a few benefits like cost of Health insurance (which has gone up) & 401K.
Cons
Home Health should not be a Corporate Run Business.... Not the way Amedisys is. Numbers is the focus around here daily. They want as many new patients coming in, however dont want to spend the money to staff it. Working your fingers to the bone to get things done daily with no help, no thank you, no compensation, nothing. Just more emails on what's not getting done the way they think it needs to be (which will change tomorrow, by the way). Field clinicians are worked so hard & are expected to work more when they are off for the day doing the laptop paperwork. Training is all done electronic & nothing other than a question & answer session. Redundant paperwork is killing trees for a company thats "paperless" . The management turnover is so fast, you never know who to answer to & you can bet that what you were told to do last week has already changed, so they can fuss about how you are not doing things the right way today. Its like working with your hands tied behind your back, with expectations of working miracles. Not happening & no, I dont think it is "working in the other 500 offices" either! It seems to me that it looks like its across the board all full of drama & chaos in all offices. Never been so depressed & felt so incompatent as I do here, even though i should be thankful I have a job when so many others out there dont. It just makes it hard to be a cheerleader for a company that really, behind the scenes, doesnt care much about their employees.....
