My experience working here was extremely disappointing and stressful. The workplace culture felt negative and unsupportive, and leadership within the office lacked professionalism and effective communication. Interactions between management and staff were often handled in a way that felt dismissive and disrespectful.
There appears to be a significant amount of staff turnover, which in my opinion reflects deeper issues within the work environment. Many employees felt uncomfortable raising concerns because they did not feel they would be heard or treated fairly. When issues arose, staff were often addressed in a one-sided manner without the opportunity to explain their perspective.
The environment often felt tense and hostile, which made it difficult for employees to feel supported or valued. Over time, the stress from this environment began to impact my mental and physical health. My family noticed the toll it was taking on me, and ultimately I had to make the decision to leave for my own well-being.
Work-life balance was also a challenge. Employees often felt pressure to put work ahead of personal or family responsibilities, which created additional stress and anxiety for many staff members.
Based on my experience, this workplace lacks the leadership, communication, and supportive culture that many employees need in order to succeed and feel respected. I strongly encourage potential applicants to carefully research the work environment before accepting a position.

I've been with AMH for [almost] 6 years. During this time, I've been through several members of Leadership, several Clinicians, & several members of the Support Staff. The team we have currently is, by far, the best team I've ever worked with, making this the best company I've ever worked for.
Leadership is very informative & collaborative. The support staff I work with is amazing. My colleagues & Leadership team are supportive.
Aside from that, AMH offers great benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, 403b, PTO, Bereavement, etc.) & resources (Reads Uniform Payroll Deduction Account or Above & Beyond Awards).
One of my favorite things about being a part of this company is that they promote from within, when they can, based on experience, education, and dedication to the organization. For example, I started as a Medical Assistant and have had 3 promotions in my 6 years.
Of course, there are days when I go home stressed out and overwhelmed. We work in healthcare, after all. The most difficult part of the job is picking up extra responsibilities when your team is short-staffed. Although it's not required, the efforts are appreciated & valued. However, the reward is the way we make a positive impact on the community and the patients we serve every day. 
No matter where you work, you'll deal with challenging situations. It's about personal growth & how you choose to handle those situations.


From the start, expectations were set out clearly for the work flow and protocols to provide patient care. I feel equipped to easily refer to protocols when I have questions, and I am comfortable reaching out to my supervisors for clear direction and support. 
I am the type of person who does things by the book, and at AMH the book is written, available, and all but served on a silver platter. 
If you're willing to learn the workflow and protocols that are required (i.e. best practices) for providing care at this FQHC, you will be fine. 
I do not anticipate the patient schedule ever being overloaded. I feel supported in being allotted the amount of time needed to provide quality care. 
I am happy with my co-workers and supervisors. When communication with each other is clear and open, we are able to support each other to work well as a team. 

Almost a year ago I took a leap of faith and moved to NC from out of state and interviewed with AMH. From the interview to my day to day job this company has been amazing and so supportive. Leadership truly cares about each employee and wants to see everyone succeed in their goals. It's also heartwarming to see a company have a mission statement that they truly follow and believe in. We work with patients regardless of their ability to pay and that also extends to the staff who work here. 
It is definitely difficult to find a company that truly believes in their staff and is willing to listen to them. This job is difficult but also rewarding. Leadership understands how hard this job and any job in healthcare can be; they are always willing to listen and improve to make each day better for staff and the patients we see. 

I really enjoy working at AMH. I have been with the company since the new ceO took the job. People get support and stuff they need. There is also a lot of help from other leadership team members. When we have bad people who aren’t doing their job, management works with them. If they do better, they stay and if they don’t they’re gone. As someone who works hard, I like this. It makes me feel like I matter that they aren’t making be put up with a bad apple for a coworker. They also just did open houses where the CEO and COO come out with other leaders and asked us how we felt like things were going and they actually fixed stuff. The company feels more like we are one big company now. Before Shantelle took over, we were just a bunch of small forgotten clinics

What is the Best Part of this company ? The patients that desperately need to be seen are actually treated better than the employee’s and get seen -no matter what.
The most stressful? Very unprofessional training! Disrespectful and non-stop work gossip. Burned our employee’s manipulative and full of discontent.
What is the work environment like? Greedy and numbers How many patients can be seen to get more grant money.
Typical Day? Very Toxic and unhealthy work environment 
If you are looking for quality , long term employment I honestly can not recommend this place. Beware ! There are so many great companies to work for! Don’t walk away from this one……run! 

The only good thing that I can say is the benefit package is great. This was the most stressful work environment I have encountered, and I have been in the workforce for 25 years.  I have never been so disrespected by an employer in my life. I was lied to several times by management, and lies were told about me by management. This company does not care about the employees. For the sake of the patients that desperately need quality care, I hope they fix the very obvious issues they have and begin to treat their staff with basic human respect.   

What is the best part of working at the company?
The patients.  Other than that there are no other positive attributes about this company.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with HR. She is the most disrespectful, unappreciative person I’ve ever had to deal with. She has the personality of a wet mop. She treats adults like they are children she is all about her not about the employees.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
This company is all about making money at the cost of patient care.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Boring and monotonous. They love beating a dead horse.

This is the most toxic company I have ever worked for.  Most of the people I worked with were fantastic, and the patients are great - but management is a nightmare.  The current C.O.O is the one running the show - you can forget the CEO knowing anything that is going on. Leadership is more focused on what color folders and keyboards staff has than actual patient care or issues that are going on in the clinics. Greedy, entitled, manipulative, and hypocritical are the only words I have to describe leadership. The more they grow their company - the less they care about the patients and their staff. Toxic work environment to say the least.
