Pros

If this is your calling, as it should be if you're entering hospice, you're really going to be satisfied by what you can do for your patients and their families. Your patients are everything, helping them is the most rewarding part of the job, but can also be the hardest part if you're not supported by management.

Cons

Poor field staff support and job training. Training for employees is not as fluid, timely nor organized at it should be. This results in highly stressed field staff. Staff aren't supported in numbers (i.e. an improperly staffed team), this results in an increased work load and decreased ability to provide proper patient care.

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.
