Pros

Excellant pay. Select University has many online classes you can take for professional development. Small team environment.

Cons

Benefit premiums are costly & not great coverage either. Goal are not clear. Back biting and micromanaging is highly encouraged. Beware of the DBD.

Pros

Pays better than hospitals around it...

Cons

This is easily the worst run hospital you will encounter. Anyone above a CNA, RN, or RT is basically completely inept at their jobs. Supplies are always running out. You are always short staffed. Management has no idea how to fix any problems AT ALL. In Springfield, MO alone we've seen about 5 different heads or HR quit or get fired, 4 CNOs quit or get fired, 3 CEOs quit or get fired, 6 respiratory department heads quit or get fired, countless nurses, RTs, and CNAs quit or get fired...in 5 years!! ...and this is in a small 54 bed LTACH with better pay than anyone around it. This shows there is A HUGE underlying problem here with Select. That problem put simply is awful, awful, AWFUL management. My advice: Don't work there unless your PRN. Never take a full time position at any Select. I promise you, you will regret it.

Pros

1.) Nursing staff in facility was helpful and friendly for the most part. 2.) Therapy staff is ok but often overly competitive with each other due to productivity expectations. 3.) Adequate pay for region.

Cons

1.) Poor leadership in management with little to no support for employees. High turnover of DOR position leading to therapists picking up the slack without support from upper management. 2.) Completely unethical productivity expectations (90% is not realistic for quality clinical care). 3.) Barely any orientation to buildings I worked in. NO orientation to documentation system provided. Spent 2-3 hours watching modules on policies of company instead. 4.) No consideration or compassion toward employees whatsoever. They really only care about money and could care less about employee work-life balance.
