Lhc the parent company is set up to make the employees thrive. But then assured home health office in Washington near Seattle office is not.. there is one overarching manager over multiple different offices and locations. She will be the one to interview you. Everyone will seem the best almost to good to be true. And this is because it is. This manager is rude. There is no caring. She is very much only working for the company. They do not care about the employees. They are short staffed and working their clinicians passed the breaking point. If you were to go into any of the offices many people are on their last straw and want to quit. But this company draws people in with semi decent pay and truly large sign on bonuses. This would be great but you have to be with the company for at least 2 years or pay all of the money back. This company is not worth the tears that were shed to work for it. You will be micromanaged. You will be overworked and help to impossible standards. And at the end of the day when you don't meet those standards you will be degraded, not only in a private meeting but in meetings that are meant for a large group of staff. Be warned now. Your life and sanity are worth more.. They do not care about the workers or the patient. Only about the money. This company will take patients who dont need services and keep them to get the money.

Office staff seemed GREAT! Really appeared to listen and find us the "best" caregiver..... The one…read morethey sent seemed genuinely to care and be a good fit..... BUT..... 2 weeks in, she dropped my husband on the floor/bedframe while transferring him to his WC. Things happen as you learn your client and they learn you, so no injury, we moved on. However, my husband is elderly and highly subject to suggestive comments. We found ourselves fighting all the TIME when this caregiver was here. Apparently, it became so bad that I was reported as being verbally abusive... And the company decided my home was too volatile for them to be comfortable sending in another caregiver.... They never asked me why these accusations may have been made, although she was being paid to basically sit on her bottom - vape-play slots on her phone, check her RING cam, and look at ME when he needed assistance! YET..... Once this certain caregiver was gone from my home, it was realized she was "suggesting" to him that I was abusive, he would be better off without me, I was just trying to put him in a home, he could get 24/7 care in home (false) through the VA, etc.... Since this agency is no longer involved, my home is peaceful & serene again, I have competent caregivers, and there have been ZERO complaints from my husband, the new agency, caregivers, the state, etc..... This agency could have been a godsend to my family, but they need to also realize their employees are NOT the only voice that should be heard.... By the way, not sure why they say I on California, but I am reviewing the Olympia, WA location......

I've spent a few years wondering whether to write this review. But time has not reflected kindly…read moreon the experience my parents had with Advanced Health Care. My father is a decorated military veteran and the VA assigned Advanced to provide home health aid for him. He's in his 90s so the home health aid worked closely with my mother who is a compassionate, precise, and capable caregiver for my father. Advanced assigned a home health aid who stoled a large sum of cash from my parents. My mother began noticing money disappear from her purse. She moved her purse into an isolated part of the house and the home health aid kept finding the purse and started stealing from my father's wallet. Yes, that would be the father who earned a bronze star and purple heart in Vietnam. We reported the exact days and amounts of the thefts to Advanced they basically denied that the thefts were happening and told my mother that wallets or purses shouldn't be left out to provide temptation to the home care aid. They blamed my parents for not hiding valuables. What kind of agency hires people that would give in to this kind of temptation? As of my final conversation with the manager there, Advanced had no intention of disciplining the care giver and instead reported the case to social services who sent a DSHS social worker out to evaluate the mental capacity of my parents. Here is the double standard: Certain home health aids steal and victimize clients. Agencies deny the theft and blame the mental capacity of the elder. So the elder gets victimized not once, but twice. Even local police took no action against the home health care aid who took well over $1,000. I have a masters degree in Social Work and I am horrified by the lack of action. I was just home for the holidays and finally noticed that my parents no longer had large serving forks and spoons that our family had used for generations. My mother finally told me that they had been taken by that home health aid. When does this stop? When do agencies like Advanced take responsibility for hiring people that prey on the elderly instead of scapgoating their elderly clients. I wouldn't trust these people to care for my worst enemy. My parents, and your parents, deserve better.
