Pros

The pay is ok, but for the amount of work that you are expected to do...we should be compensated more.

Cons

The “team lead” of my group of nurses, has horrible managerial skills. She is unapproachable, rude and lacks empathy. If your child is sick or if you have an emergency...she expects you to “stay until she sees if it will be busy”. But the moment she has an emergency or doesn’t feel well she leaves and only tells ONE person. And expects that person to tell the rest of the clinical staff. We lost a really good nurse because of how our “team lead” treated her. Which is unfortunate because we were just beginning to build a really good team! Overall I think that before someone becomes a team lead they should demonstrate certain skills. We will never have a good team, if we do not have good leadership!

Pros

Benefits Pay Co-workers Patients That’s all

Cons

Micromanagement at its finest. Providers don’t have the authority to do what is best for patients. I have worked in prisons and it is easier to get patients care they need there than it is working for Chenmed. They have you recite this saying every morning. Something about how their goal is to give their patients “more good days.” It’s all a load of crap. Their goal is to give the CEO and the Chen family more money and more good days. They think you can see these complex patients in 5 minutes. “Just have them come back every day,” they say as if that’s not taxing for an elderly person. Just stay away from this place and keep your loved ones away too.
