Parasitic & Toxic to Health Care - Speech-Language Pathologist RehabCare Employee Review

Pros

I worked with several great teams of therapists, and several good managers. However the "good" managers weren't doing what the upper management wanted, and usually weren't long for the position.

Cons

The company under-reimburses you for mileage driven for work. Employees with years of experience and specialty training are not valued and are treated as replaceable (even when the company can't cover a vacation for a therapist). Speech is treated as an add-on when they have an SLP, when they don't, it's not necessary. Productivity is the driver above patient care (keep patients at highest levels at all times). Management refuses to discharge patients who are not receiving skilled services. Upper management promises building management things that are unethical. Continuing education reimbursement is below market, requires use of PTO, and doesn't include travel/hotel for conferences. PTO is below market as well (about 16 days total including holidays/Con Ed days for a 5-year, FTE employee).

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.
