Amedisys reviews

If you ever wondered why medicare is broke, look at companies like Amedysis which are milking the health care system for all it's worth. The more you do the more you will have to do. There is no "stretching" to meet state medicare guidelines, it is straight up lies. Offices are rewarded by the numbers. Now I know a business has to make money to survive, but this company is like slave labor. I've tried to stick it out for the past year, thinking the problem was just our local office but now know it starts at the top and is a trickle down effect. Unfortunately, it's sick and dying people who are given mediocre care by an overworked staff. I cannot tell you how much I have aged in the past year. New Years resolution is to get out. Started interviewing already. To show you how sorry it is, I am the senior nurse and I've been there for a little less than a year!

Home Health should not be a Corporate Run Business.... Not the way Amedisys is. Numbers is the focus around here daily. They want as many new patients coming in, however dont want to spend the money to staff it. Working your fingers to the bone to get things done daily with no help, no thank you, no compensation, nothing. Just more emails on what's not getting done the way they think it needs to be (which will change tomorrow, by the way). Field clinicians are worked so hard & are expected to work more when they are off for the day doing the laptop paperwork. Training is all done electronic & nothing other than a question & answer session. Redundant paperwork is killing trees for a company thats "paperless" . The management turnover is so fast, you never know who to answer to & you can bet that what you were told to do last week has already changed, so they can fuss about how you are not doing things the right way today. Its like working with your hands tied behind your back, with expectations of working miracles. Not happening & no, I dont think it is "working in the other 500 offices" either! It seems to me that it looks like its across the board all full of drama & chaos in all offices. Never been so depressed & felt so incompatent as I do here, even though i should be thankful I have a job when so many others out there dont. It just makes it hard to be a cheerleader for a company that really, behind the scenes, doesnt care much about their employees.....
