Pros

Have seen them send tanker trucks to gas our cars & assist staff that lost homes when there was a hurricane. Provide emotional support options for this rewarding but difficult job. They have admitted charity case patients and provided the same great level of care provided to all patients. Although they are a “for profit” company they are far more generous in patient care than a “non-profit” religious health care system I worked for >10 years.

Cons

only let you carry 40 hours of PTO into the new year. Like many healthcare programs often short staffed. There are higher paying nursing jobs elsewhere. Night, weekend, holiday and on-call shifts required.

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.
