Pros

The job seemed hopeful and swemingly professional.I took pride in my work and was well liked by the residents.They offered benefits and a steady 40 hour work week

Cons

After a possitive quarterly evaluation I was fired for "Workplace violence" by the daughter of a worker that was written up for cussing me out days before. A month prior I was targeted by the chef who "found" things to write me (five times in two weeks) up and fast track my dismissal I filed a complaint with the regional manager and the write ups were deemed unfounded. The rumors were that I was being targeted by "the click". When I was told I was being fired they said it was because the girl felt "threatened" by me I asked if there's was no violence or cursing or any physical contact by me (I actually liked working with her) if I could see the accusations that were cited for my dismissal they sited "Hippa law" as why they couldn't explain how or what specifically I did to get such a harsh reason for getting fired.

Pros

Fifteen years ago, I joined this Rehabilitation company looking for more than just a job-I was looking for a place where I could make a meaningful difference. What I found was an organization whose mission aligned with my own values; helping people regain confidence, independence, dignity, and hope, during some of the most challenging times in their lives. From my very first day, I realized this was more than a workplace. It was a community of compassionate professionals united by a common purpose-supporting and guiding patients to achieve goals that they may have thought were out of reach. Whether it is assisting someone in taking their first steps after surgery, helping a patient return home safely and independently after an illness, or simply regain a lost skill, these moments continually remind me why our work matters so much and reinforces my commitment to this profession and especially to this organization which continually encourages me and empowers me to challenge myself and expand my capabilities. What has kept me here for the past 15 years, is not just the opportunity to build this career, but the opportunity to be a part of something bigger than myself. Powerback Rehab has fostered a culture of compassion, innovation, and continuous improvement. This company recognizes that when employees grow, patients benefit, and therefore communities become stronger. My decision to continue growing with Powerback Rehab is rooted in a simple belief. When you find a place that allows you to make a difference, supports your development, and shares your values, it becomes more than a workplace, it becomes a source of inspiration.
