Pros

There are no pros for this company at all. The only good thing about this experience is the long-lasting friendship that I had made with my client.

Cons

The only reason why I am still working here is because of my one client. I hope all other locations are completely different. The owner is heartless and only blows up your phone when she needs a shift filled. That is why I only take on my regular client. This company is filled with lies. If I try to pick up last minute shifts I am told that the location is nearby..... When I am on my way to the clients home, it is so out of the way, over 45 min away. Absolutely ridiculous. Paychecks are never on time unless if you go and pick it up. I live far, and have to drive all the way here to drop off Florida Hospital notes. If they happen to lose your notes they hold your paycheck. I have also requested for a copy of my home health aide certificate. Which by the way, I have never received any appropriate training. So I don't know how I am technically certified. I don't even know if we have a registered nurse to help train us. Corporate and joint commission really needs to step in and take a look at this location. When I was hired I never received training nor any rules and regulations. Being sent out blind is careless. I would never recommend this company to any family in need of a caregiver.

Pros

No pros very horrible company to work for. I would not recommend this company to anyone. Very careless people. No communication at all.

Cons

FirstLight Home care is a very horrible place to work at. When I first started there I was told I was going to be paid a certain amount hourly then when I received my first paycheck, in which I didn't know that it will be coming in the mail, my pay rate was way lower then what they told me it would be. Not to mention you get paid on Friday your check will not come in the mail until Monday. The communication is very horrible and they can care less about their employee's. I wouldn't even recommend them to be giving home care to your family members.
