RehabCare Employee Reviews about "flexible schedule"

Pros

Flexible schedule loving patient

Cons

No pay raises not much gratitude for therapists or assistance for daily job duties being told constantly you are not productive.

Pros

Nice facility to work at. Flexible hours and schedule. Electronic documentation

Cons

Mangement always pushing to " capture the minutes" even if inappropriate. Poor follow up from upper mgmt., not timely in getting back with staff ( weeks to get an answer). Little support to build up caseload with no concern of losing contract. Company constantly asking more of staff but not willing to compensate for the extra time.

Pros

Nice culture with direct coworkers, direct supervisor is a big reason why I stay. Flexible work hours (I work a flex schedule)

Cons

Upper management sets impossible policies and is borderline unethical. Benefits not very good. Often hires new grads over seasoned employees because they don't want to pay them. This makes a group of people who are all new and have no guidance. Constantly feel like it's upper management vs. therapists. Lacks that feeling of unity.

Pros

Nice facility to work in. Great therapists with supportive upper management. Flexible schedule and time off. Great technology to assist with your job.

Cons

Sometimes hard to recruit or keep employees due to a weak benefits package

Pros

Flexible schedule allows time for children/family

Cons

High productivity standards prevent you from keeping your patients needs first.

Pros

Great co workers and schedule flexibility

Cons

I get patients "dumped" on me. All the patients that everyone else doesn't want, I get because of seniority. No recognition given to anyone who goes over, above and beyond their job description.

Pros

Rehab Care offers a Competitive salary. RehabCare offers a very flexible Schedule. RehabCare offers an opportunity to be creative and start new programs. RehabCare local staff are friendly. Flexible schedule

Cons

THis Job was advertised as "full time" @ 32 hours. To qualify for full time benefits, you only need to work 32 hours every 13 weeks. I wanted to work 3 to 4 days a week but instead the position required me to be there 5 days a week, often getting sent home after three or four hours due to low census. Had I stayed on, I would not have qualified for full-time benefit status.

Pros

Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule Flexible work schedule

Cons

If you don’t care about losing your license, this is the place to be! Bottom line all the company and supervisors care about is productivity. There is no proper training regarding the documentation program that is used but best believe from day one they are harassing you to make sure you are seeing all your patients on your caseload for the time allotted and no less. They call you unprofessional for not giving a proper notice of resignation but they fail to understand working for a company like that seems to be more immoral and unethical. In no way would I recommend someone to work for this company however if you do make sure to research your facility. Unfortunately I had no information regarding the facility and risked it. Unethical! All about business! Unprofessional Pay not that great

Pros

Flexible work schedule Great staff Communication

Cons

No Pay raises Lack of equipment for elderly population

Pros

flexible schedule and that is about it.

Cons

I just signed on with this company. Uprooted my life and relocated across the country. Was told I would be working full time 40 hours, with a STR population such as ortho and stroke patients. However that is not happening and the patients are horrible. Not rehab appropriate whatsoever. I am being told I cannot discharge and need to find other areas to work on even tho all areas have been assessed. I have also been told that when patients are not ready for therapy, due to having to be cleaned up by nursing or not having finished eating or whatever the reason, that I have to clock out and not get paid for that time because of productivity. That will not happen - Patients should be ready. They are there for rehab so they can go home and return to their lives! In terms of productivity, they do NOT take into consideration discharges, writing up evals, documentation, meetings with other therapists or nurses. They also try to make therapists more productive by giving them ipads however it makes us less productive. It is the worst idea ever! You have to use your fingers to navigate screens and a million drop down menus and prewritten goals that are not even in the correct tense. Changing all of that takes forever! And if you do not have a keyboard you have to use your fingers to type on the mini screen. It kicks you out a million times a day while you are typing. And you are not allowed to use any computer to document. Charts are not ready when doing a chart review for an eval, you have to hunt down people for hospital records. There are only 2 (yes 2!) walkers in the entire facility that is not even half full. The company keeps saying it is because they are new. Well shouldnt you be prepared for the clientele you are going to serve before you open your doors? You also have to wait for nursing to give you a wheelchair for new admissions! I went into a patients room to complete an eval and there was no walker or wheelchair to be found. I had to take one of the two walkers in the facility and then had to wait for nursing to bring a wheelchair since they are the only ones allowed to obtain wheelchairs. All of that should be done and in a patients room before a therapist walks into the room, especially if the company is worried about productivity. They also have fancy equipment found in an outpatient setting that is not appropriate whatsoever for their patients. Its horrible. No adaptive equipment. Everytime a therapist requests basic items like a dressing stick, the answer is always the same - We are new and just working on it. Unacceptable, and all of that should have been squared away before admitting patients. Give your therapists basic items to perform their job! Everything I was told by the recruiter was a lie. Do not work for this company, they will tell you anything to get you in the door. Based on my personal experience working in snfs, I still feel like therapist should unionize like the nurses. This is just insane, unethical, and slave labor.
