Pros
Benefits and multiple different shift start times for on call
Cons
ALWAYS multiple scheduled visits every night. Usually, ‘on call’ means emergencies with an occasional ‘scheduled’ visit. They have you going to the office or inpatient units to pick up supplies and/or go to pharmacies to deliver to patients in the middle of the night. These things should have already been ordered and delivered to patients by their case managers. Obviously case managers are not doing their jobs. Their territory is huge, from at least McKinney/Prosper all the way to Waxahachie or further. If you have to drive during rush hour it could take you 2 & 1/2 hours or more just to get to the visit. Also, this is one of the largest hospice companies and they still use paper to chart.
