Great benefits, patient focused care, supportive management.
STAFF NURSE (Former Employee), Chattanooga, TN – March 8, 2013
Pros: great benefits.
Cons: very labor intensive
Assessed patients, administered meds as ordered, provided care to patients, conversed with family, Doctor's and other inter disciplines to meet patient needs. I learned to multitask without giving up quality of care. Management was supportive across the board. Teamwork was a must. Very labor intensive due to the fact that most patients were totally – more... dependent on nursing staff to meet all of their needs. Watching the patient go home and coming back to visit later. – less

Fast paced work environent with a lot of responsibility
Office Assistant (Former Employee), Louisville, KY – February 19, 2013
Pros: not micromanaged, nice facility
Cons: sometimes could get quite slow
A typical workday for me was to come in and start any print projects left from the day before. When the US Mail arrived I would help in getting all of that sorted as well. We would make two mail deliveries per day, and I covered a floor at our building and a floor at our 4th sreet office. At one point I was also the meeting coordinator for the entire – more... building, which consisted of setting up projectors and laptops in various meeting rooms, as well as keeping a schedule of who requested what where. I was also one of three people who regularly conducted new hire orientation on Mondays. This consisted of preparing orientation packets, and conducting a powerpoint presentation and tour of the building. – less

The worst place I've ever worked
Histotechnologist (Former Employee), Hollywood, fl – February 17, 2013
Pros: the manager was very nice
Cons: nasty coworkers
The people here are bullies who take great pride in being mean. Their not professional people. The patient care attitude is nowhere to be found. I have never worked in such a hostile environment in my 25 years of healthcare experience.

The cheif mangement is mean does care for employes. There was rummor going around that 3 nurses are getting the axe, I went toi talk to the cheif mangement . Her comment was llook for anouther job. That was so mean. She should say I would look into this mater. I had 13yrs and 9mths there hardly ever missed work. I would work overtime every time time they would ask. This took place at Kindred of Oakdale PA.

Fast paced CBO
Commercial Biller/Collector (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – February 11, 2013
Pros: cafe on site
Cons: high benefits
• Billed all commercial insurance companies primary and secondary
• Called insurance companies for claim status, appeal status, and eligibility/benefit issues

The manager was easy going and easy to talk to and get along with. The supervisor didn't know – more... what he was doing and couldn't answer a lot of questions. There were good employees and some employees that did not do anything but gosip. – less

Kindred SLand
Respiratory Therapist (Former Employee), Sugarland – February 6, 2013
Pros: parking, food, nice food not over worked for the most part
Cons: manager
Nice facility, food is good. Coworkers are good. The manager not trust worthy. So if you can come to work and not have any expectations of the director and do your job, collect your paycheck and go home, you'll be good to go.
