Pros
To date I have found LHC Group to be an honest, fair, and financially responsible company that offers its employees a good benefit package and competitive wages. Upper management makes themselves available to their employees at all times. The company provides education for all employees and requires that they stay current with such in order to provide the best care for our patients. Management has gone to Washington on numerous occasions to advocate on behalf of our elderly. LHC has always insisted on doing business ethically and according to governmental guidelines (even when it appeared that other agencies were gaining an edge by NOT adhering to those same guidelines) For this, LHC has earned my respect.
Cons
Heartbreaking to see positions eliminated due to Medicare cuts. While education classes are certainly necessary, they are sometimes too long and are a burden to already overloaded schedules. Perhaps breaking some of the longer classes down into 2 shorter session would be an option. LHC is always ahead of the game with the latest technologies and systems, but the Con here is that we are ALWAYS training on something new.
