Company Description:

If you're making a career in health care, why not choose one of the fastest growing segments in the industry: home health care. And if you're serious about home care, consider Gentiva Health Services, an industry leader.

With more than 30 years of clinical excellence, Gentiva Health Services has been at the forefront of home health care-leading the industry in the development of best practices, standards for customer service and opportunities for our associates.

Our mission has been, and will always be, to improve the health and well being of our patients and their families. It is upon this foundation that we've built a company that has set a high standard of care for the home health business. We call it The Gentiva Difference. We hope you'll simply call it a great place to work.

The Gentiva Difference may mean something different for every associate. For caregivers coming from a hospital environment, it may mean the flexibility to balance home life with work; for seasoned home caregivers, it may mean never having to compromise on care again; for first time managers is may mean the additional training offered by our own Gentiva University; for newcomers to home care, it may mean an opportunity to work at a job that matters and to truly make a difference in people's lives; to all, it means finding a place to build a meaningful career in a lively, supportive environment.

Our Gentiva Difference takes many forms:

• Stability. Our large patient base means that at most locations, there is plenty of work available. This is good news for caregivers who want dependable weekly hours with an equally dependable paycheck.
   
• Security. We've been an industry leader for 30 years, which translates into financial security and ongoing plans for growth.
   
• Reputation. Once you've worked for Gentiva, you'll see that we've set the standard by which other companies measure themselves. Whether you seize the many opportunities that Gentiva offers for building a career trajectory or eventually move on, you'll be well trained and well positioned to grow in new directions.
   
• Leading Edge. Whether it's piloting new care techniques or installing state-of-the-art information technology systems, Gentiva stays on the leading edge. This not only creates an exciting environment full of progressive thinkers and innovators, but provides opportunities for you to stay up-to-date and stretch yourself in new ways.
   
• Education. Being able to grow in your job increases not just satisfaction, but opportunities, which is why we make continuing education accessible to all our associates. Our Gentiva University offers more than 120 programs, ranging from in-services to online courses on our Intranet. We also offer support with professional accreditation and recertification, and in some cases, tuition reimbursement.
   
• Customer Service. Delivering superior service to our clients, customers and patients takes priority at Gentiva. Not only are we ranked at the top of the industry, but our customer satisfaction results year in and year out, typically average between 92% and 97% "very satisfied or above."
   
• National Reach, Local Touch. We offer the vast range of resources of a national company along with the camaraderie of our local offices. You'll have access to experts, technology, databases and support across the country while working on teams in the community in which you live.
   
• Robust Benefits. Our compensation and benefits packages are competitive in the industry, and feature a choice of options-depending upon position and number of hours worked-including medical, dental, and vision, 401(K) plans, life and disability, and stock options.
