Pros

The patients are by far the best part of this job. If it wasn't for them I would have lost my mind. Also, my fellow aides make my work experience better.

Cons

The pay is terrible. It is almost insulting to make so little and be asked to do so much. The distribution of labor is horrible between therapists and aides. They ask aides to do their job most times and we merely get a pat on the back.

Pros

Great hands on experience compared to other clinics. Heard that at other clinics, aides just clean and 'make the clinician's life easier' but at this location if youre willing to learn and take initiative, you can assist patients through their exercises under supervision of the licensed therapist

Cons

The only thing is the pay, but it's an entry level job so makes sense why.
