Pros

The only one offered are your coworkers

Cons

This company sees it's employees as machines. It has a high productivity expectation. They cater to the facility they are contracted with over following ethical guidelines. They push for patients who are not therapy appropriate to be placed oncaseload, completely ignoring evaluating therapists recommendations. They have horrible communication from the upper management down. Disorganized scheduling constantly leaves therapists scrambling to make up for incompetence on the part of management. But that may come from the rehab technician being called upon to complete the program director's work versus helping with patient care. I will also say that this company does not believe in orientation of new employess. You will have to learn the system on your own and that typically happens as you are being chastised for missing elements in documentation. The company is cheap. They rarely grant raises. I met a therapist that had received 5 raises over a span of 19 years! They also prefer to hire assistants in the rehab director position which makes little sense as they try to direct therapist on how to perform their jobs, when in reality the therapist has to supervise their director in order for them to complete treatment. There is a high turnover here because therapist burn out from the mental stress of the job. When facilifies complain the management will back the facility over their own team. This is a very discouraging company to work for. To hear new grads say they don't want to be therapist anymore because they feel used is just sad.

Pros

Almost everyone is friendly. This company has treated me better than any company I worked for since I became a PTA. This company seems more fair and ethical than most of the companies I worked for as a PTA. The nursing home employees get along better with the RehabCare employees than I have seen when a different rehab company was providing the rehab workers at a nursing home.

Cons

Census level changes quickly and often. Since I am PRN that means many of my shifts are cancelled or cut short. There is usually not much notice. The locations that need my help tend to be 10-22 miles from home. Occasionally I work at some farther than that. The company is disorganized. There are many error in the programs on our iPads and delays in getting certain types of pay on our paychecks. I do trust the company to try to correct these errors. We are paid only twice a month. The company is overly concerned with productivity. The employees who have benefits say they are not good.
