Pros

Flexible work. Decent pay. Make your own hours. Can experience a variety of areas of work: home care, facility care, child care, and/or hospice.

Cons

Your paycheck will be unpredictable unless you have a steady client. There is no official pay rate. The hourly wage changes from client to client. Management makes you feel "replaceable." Frequent driving sometimes without mileage reimbursement unless youbare driving for ths client. You dont see the office staff often unless you are summoned for paperwork.

Pros

Clinical leadership provided excellent mentorship and was highly accessible for questions. Management did a great job of keeping commute times in mind when scheduling visits. Territories were well-defined and organized, which made daily planning much easier,

Cons

As with any home health role, there were occasional logistical issues or days when one wanted to dive under the covers, but the leadership team was supportive.
