Gentiva reviews

Poor upper management, say one thing but do another.

The raises and other benefits are awful/non-existent. They are greedy. Unrealistic expectations, especially for the salaried field staff. I would be told to drive an hour one way and do a 2 hour admission at 4:58 PM when I was off work at 5 PM and not on-call. They said well, you’re still on the clock. Horrible on-call shifts for people who also worked all day. Didn’t allow time to sleep and I felt unsafe on the road. Awake for 30 hours or more on the freeway with not even 10 minutes of peace to close my eyes. I felt used and abused. I felt pushed into doing the role of marketer (who make much more) and not being allowed to spend time with patients and their families. I had a cardiac episode while admitting a patient at a hospital. RN Manager witnessed it and was in the ER with me. He insisted I drive 45 minutes to complete an assessment and made me leave AMA from the ER, despite me saying I didn’t feel safe to drive. He removed my IV and didn’t notify the ER staff. This was 1 month into my employment and I should have ran. Often cheated on my mileage and other reimbursements, too.
