direct support professional

Creative-Options

Pays minimum wage. They let me know 1 day before my first day with my client that I was hired to care for isn’t going to need me anymore due to the fact that the previous caregiver didn’t want to quit any longer. Extremely unprofessional, terrible pay and benefits. Extremely long training where you sit in a conference room for 2 weeks watching videos. No communication skills at all. I found a job shortly after they told me the news and they tried calling me a month later that they may have a new client. Save the time and drive out to west sac for the non sense. 

Overall I really love working here as I get to make a positive impact on my client's life. It does take some time to get your hours though, so be aware of this. Management doesn't always communicate well, and this can be frustrating at times. The hours are amazing and it can be quite laidback depending on the client you have. I do believe that they take good care of their employees, and I really appreciate this about Creative Living Options. 

Days can very from extremely busy, to slow paced and easy going. But no matter what, you can talk to the office staff, they offer a open door policy, and treat you with kindness and respect. I love working here. I have been with CLO over 3 years, and I have been promoted to front office ADMIN staff and I am also still a PA and work in the field with the clients.

What is the best part of working at the company?
the consumer . the actual company is unprofessional. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
not enough hours , write ups for being sick which is bizarr, bullying from the higher staff , under paid , unpromising bosses, lousy staff management and NO COMMUNICATION

Was given short training period. I was fine learning as I go. But then main manager in office was working remotely then all the sudden I had three different manager telling me how to do things. None of them had the same answers or ways of doing things. I could never get a straight and definite answer on how to continue and complete tasks. 

Working with Creative Living Options was very rewarding, and I'm grateful of the experience and duties that I acquired in this life fulling position. Working with the CEO and understanding the flow and process of the company growth has enhanced my knowledge and understanding of working with the disable.

Overall, this is a decent to great place to work. I really enjoy the day to day work I do, my clients, and their honestly and willingness to grow and tech their employees.

It's a very calm work place and i have learned alot since i have been there. They have a great HR manager and CEO. The most enjoyable part of the job is working with the consumers we serve and watching them accomplish their personal goals in life.

Good company to work for if , but job security is dependent upon the client and their needs and eligibility.  poor communication between clients and family members at times.

This company hire’s people who are diverse . They love creative caring people. Everyone is so different yet all have the same caring personality. Great company to work for.
