Pros

The entire company is well-led and well-organized from the top down, which leads to efficiency and camaraderie within each clinic and between clinics. The EMR is the best I've seen. Because we don't hire out of desperation, everyone on the team can not only pull their weight professionally, but can be a fun, engaging, respectful, supportive coworker as well. Professional development opportunities abound and they are often run in-house, which usually makes them well organized and no-cost to the employee.

Cons

Reimbursement in the state of Rhode Island is notoriously low. Perhaps if you can survive here as a private practice, you can survive anywhere, which may be why we are growing so quickly into southeastern Massachusetts.

Pros

Fast-paced environment makes your days go by fast. I learned a lot early on as someone with minimal background in healthcare.

Cons

I'm frankly baffled by the number of people claiming Highbar is not a mill. There are many locations so maybe it varies, but where I was working as an aide I was almost always trying to keep track of 2-4 patients simultaneously, which did not equate to quality patient care. Sure seemed like a mill to me. The compensation was remarkably poor given how much aides did to hold the place together. I did not have the feeling that the organization or the people particularly cared about me as an individual.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and perspective. We appreciate hearing from former team members, and feedback like this helps us continue to learn and improve. At Highbar, our care model is built around collaborative teams that include Physical Therapists and Exercise Specialists working together to provide exceptional care. Exercise Specialists are an intentional part of the care team, not traditional aides, and receive additional training and development opportunities, including regular lunch and learn sessions designed to foster growth in the field. We are glad to hear you learned a lot during your time with us. We are sorry to hear that this position did not meet your expectations in other ways. Creating an environment where people feel valued and where patient care remains thoughtful and collaborative is very important to us, which is why we regularly seek feedback from our teams and use it to inform improvements. We are grateful you were part of the team and wish you the very best as you continue in your career.
