Pros

My coworkers; the census has improved over the years, so we aren’t called off for low census like we were in the past; benefits and retention bonus for new hires. New staff has been staying on longer. I also appreciate filling out paperwork rather than using EMR, which in my opinion would add stress to already stressful situations. This alone allows me to focus more on the patient/ family and less on documentation. The things that are electronic are user friendly.

Cons

It gets so busy to the point where we can’t take our time with patients on our visits. We have to always be watching our clocks and then rushing off to our next visit. If we are short staffed, you rack up a lot of miles on your car, not to mention wear and tear.

Pros

Very friendly and helpful colleagues. I came to this company with very little experience and all of my colleagues helped and educated me with all things hospice care. I got promoted 4 months after being hired as a clerk into a secretary job. Best job I've ever have.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

Great organization structure. significant opportunity to growth for lateral and/or vertical transition. Great compensation for all disciplines if done right, a great work life balance

Cons

Initial hiring, orientation is relatively slow may be even boring process. organization values people too much and believes in helping growth of individual so much so that some time slackers are able to survive longer then they should. which can cause loss of motivation for highly driven team members. the way I would survive if I am motivated for the cause is do what is right for you and your patients, apart from that just wait for the right time. Biggest pain point is EMR. this organization is slow to the game but the organization is building and perfecting home built EMR product to have maximum flexibility. currently going through growing pains.
