Pros
Meeting great patients and building rapport with them. I find it very rewarding when they are so happy to see you and look forward to seeing you again.
Cons
First and foremost, the hiring staff lie to you. They say the job is from 8am-5pm but they will never tell you about the overwhelming amount of paperwork (laptop documentation) to do on each patient. You find yourself bringing work to your home. You won't find the time to have adequate rest or attend to your family's needs. Worst of all, you don't get paid for the extra work you're doing after hours. You only get paid per visit. Regular visit pays you $35 and they expect you to stay for a 1/2 hour but sometimes you're there for an hour. A start of care pays $85 but resumption of care that is similar to a start of care pays $45. Granted, it will an extensive amount of documentation but the pay is really not even worth it. In addition, the training involved was very, very poor. The company has a very high turnover rate. I should've read the negative reviews prior to applying for the position. The environment can be very hostile to a new employees.
