Encore Rehabilitation, Inc

athletic trainers salary completely depends on how your physical therapy clinic do. you will be under one of the clinics to send your athletes/patients to, and asked to send 4 patients a month (remind you, we are athletic trainers). we don't get paid through our job as an athletic trainers and we are more of marketing position for physical therapy clinic - I was told to put my personal phone number on my face and go walk around the school I work at and shake hands with everyone that I don't know the name of and let them know what we are here for. No OT or weekends pay but we do clock in. PRN pay rate is lower compared to other company that hire PRN athletic trainers. Kids at school sustained me at this job.

If you’re wondering about the pay, it’s $13/hr. But you don’t need experience. So do with that information as you please. I didn’t stay there long because although the job is easy the pay along with management just wasn’t for me. There is no actual trainer. Just a person that has been there the longest. But also, when you train you’ll hear one thing… but soon after, when that way isn’t working they’ll belittle you in front of your peers and want you to change it. The work place is not diverse and once you start working you will see why. Most of your day will be spent listening to side conversations all the while the accounts are almost 2 months behind. I’m still not sure what my job description was. The patients you handle throughout the day aren’t that bad. The worse part about this job is that you’ll never know what’s going on and people tend to be gossipy and if you don’t partake they’ll assume you’re rude… overall if you have other options take them. 

They don’t pay as much as their employees are worth and they are implausibly slow to give fair raises, this goes company wide: from the billing office to the clinics. Who does get compensated greatly for the work those of us at the clinics do, however, are those folks who aren’t doing the work of treating patients or at the front desk but the regional management who expects the world of us but doesn’t give much assistance back. Overall it was still a good experience in terms of actually getting the experience to go onto something bigger afterwards, building relationships with the patients whom you’re getting to see “get better”, great coworkers in the PTs/PTAs, and having a fair work/personal life balance. The burn out still hits quick.

My typical day would start with clocking in, checking appointments,fax,e-mail, voicemail for doctor orders for therapy for the day, prepairing for first appointments, checking voicemails,printing therapy schedules for the day for in\out patients,pulling charts for scheduled appointments for the day, prepairing rooms, customer,charts and supplies for therapist. Applying heat therapy or perform needed deep tissue ultrasounds. Prepair and clean wound care whirlpool, coordinate and assist therapy exercise with patient. The hardest part of the job was experience patients with sever pain. The most enjoyable part of the job was to see the increasing progress of the patients back to a functional life.

What is the best part of working at the company?
0 stars if I could. Workload was entirely too much for my position. I felt singled out by upper management specifically the management over the regional office staff.  Asked for training and had 0 communication. Asked for leadership training when I was initially hired for leadership to grow my knowledge, and had no communication whatsoever. Ridiculous.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The workload was not worth it all. I came home everyday to my spouse over stimulated and under appreciated.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The clinic I specifically worked in was wonderful. The therapists were amazing!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A day at Encore was like working drownin in a pool.

Greet patients of all ages and disabilities with courtesy and 		professionalism as they enter the facility with respect to their mobility needs.   
·	Verify insurance eligibility and initiate all necessary paperwork to ensure 	approvals and authorizations are obtained before the patient arrives.
·	Utilize a multi-software system to schedule patient appointments, patient 	demographics, insurance information, signed consent forms, and billing Information. 
Arrive, delete, and cancel appointments utilizing the main software. 
·	Receive physician referrals and promptly schedule an initial evaluation 
- My most enjoyable part of the job was seeing the patients getting healthier over time.

I love my job title; however not the company. The home office (Decatur, AL) is very unorganized and when they need something from you it is either late or they need it by that day. I have never had a success with the HR department. I will say all the therapists are knowledgeable and extremely great at what they do and I have learned so much from them, which has been the driving influence for me to stay with this company.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing about this company was “best” to me. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They don’t care about your pto. They never have anyone to cover you so you can actually use it. There is a ton of favoritism which is super obvious. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic. If the region manager likes you- you can break all rules. 
If she decides she doesn’t you get in trouble for stupid things every day. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Sucky. I thought it was going to be a good job but the people especially managing department is so fake.

There a far better companies to work for than Encore. Management roles throughout the company are mostly held by family members of the owners, and are not judged by the same standards as others. The corporate office is hard to deal with, as they act like you are bothering them if you have a question or need something. Just try asking for time off even though you have earned the PTO, its like pulling teeth to get it approved. Even then you have to answer 20 questions about why you need off. I've seen lots of turn over while employed at Encore and I'm one of the luck ones that got out.

High standard of quality healthcare with many individuals who have been with the company for more than 10 years. I have been with Encore over 20 years and I love it! I have made many friends throughout the company and I feel very confident in the rehab we provide, no matter where the clinic is located, simply because our employees are kind, caring people. Our owners, Paul and Paige, are therapists themselves and they understand the needs of both patients and employees. They really care and take an interest in each person.
