Pros

Patients and families deserve compassionate care, and many frontline staff genuinely try to provide it. Hospice work itself can be meaningful when properly supported. This company is not it at all.

Cons

Management culture prioritizes metrics and productivity over staff well-being and realistic workloads. Communication is inconsistent, expectations change frequently, and support is often lacking when challenges arise in the field. Staffing issues lead to burnout, high turnover, and unnecessary stress on clinical employees. Concerns raised by staff are not consistently acknowledged or addressed in a meaningful way. Again manengent in Wesley chapel Florida have no idea what they are doing. How dare they pretend to care about patients they are nothing but a number and bonus in managements pockets. Disgusting. So many way better hospice agencies please don’t choose this company. You will regret it for your loved one that is a dollar bill.

Pros

Being able to build relationships with my patients and relieve the patients and family members of the difficulties with going through end of life care.

Cons

Poor pay management between new and current staff. Unwanted overtime. Not getting reimbursed for time spent on the road before and after shifts. It is possible to be gone from your house for 12 hours and only be payed for your 8 hour shift. Milegage starts after your first visit and ends at your last visit. You will not be payed for the start of your day or for the end of the day. You only get two holidays off and you are required to pay your holiday out of what little PTO you earn. There is no encouragement to stay long term. Seniority does not benefit you in any way. Little to no useful training. You will not be trained on how to use the equipment your patients may need. There is a ridiculous amount of management for what little field staff there is. They will say that you will cover a specific territory, then be expected to cover outside of that territory. You will not have a set end time of your day. Your end of shift relief may take up to 1 hour to be able to get to you. You are often unable to commitments on shift days. Company will often make promises that are not able to be met by field staff.
