Invo Healthcare

I had an overall good experience here! 

Pros: This is a great place to go if you are a student getting your BCaBA or BCBA. I met with my supervisor a lot and I felt they were genuinely invested in ensuring I learned a lot. I always felt that client safety and ethics were the first priority (I’ve heard horror stories from other businesses). They have both in clinic and in home currently and I was allowed to select if I was willing to do either. They just rolled out travel time pay which is great and they already had mileage pay which isn’t a lot but combined it’s better than other companies. Training is also paid and upper management as a whole seems willing to make changes if needed which is nice (ex. Adding travel pay, changing clinic schedules so that there is a time for RBT breaks throughout they day). 

Cons: there are a lot of cancellations. This is more of a field problem but at my branch if there was a cancellation, you wouldn’t get paid. Many RBTs left because they couldn’t get enough hours. We are onboarding more clients and the cancellation policy is being adjusted but it’s still an issue. They also just started rolling out raises for current employees. Many experienced RBTs are angry because they are making less than a new RBT. They created a new rating system to determine pay but then will turn around and pay a brand new employee more. I will also say there are high expectations (as is any RBT job). BCBA’s are there to provide support however this job at any organization can be draining when you are working with aggressive/loud/crying clients everyday so certainly keep in mind that this field is not for everyone 

As a RBT, I have worked at other companies but this company was the first that I felt that they were there to truly support me. I am place in a fully isolated special education classroom, although I know other RBT's for Invo are in part special ed part general ed classrooms. My supervisor comes in weekly to check in, answer questions, show us how to implement specific treatment methods, etc. 

Although this may seem small, my last job was not particularly professional. My supervisor, although a lovely person, would come in maybe monthly to help me and did not provide enough supervision hours as required as an RBT. I have felt that it was my responsibility to not only uphold professionalism but to create it in my work environment. I do not feel that is in my job as a new hire nor is it safe. Invo has draw very clear boundaries and expectations of all staff which has helped me tremendously in being able to provide the highest form of care and services to my client. 

I have learned how to put my RBT certification into practice, think on the spot, identify trigger in my client, adapt with new behaviors, implement treatment/intervention plan, collect data, and more! Hardest part of my job is the biting, screaming, spitting, public peeing, and pinching that burns me out the most. 

I cannot recommend Invo Healthcare as an employer. While the company talks about valuing its employees, my experience was the opposite.

Leadership frequently made decisions without transparency, communication was inconsistent, and employee morale suffered because of it. Hard work and strong performance often went unrecognized, while expectations continued to increase. During periods of organizational change, employees were left with very little information about what was happening or how it would affect their jobs.

The compensation structure also became frustrating. There were inconsistencies in how bonuses and recognition were handled, leaving many high-performing employees feeling undervalued. Rather than rewarding results, it often felt like decisions were made without considering employee contributions. No room for ANY GROWTH

Work-life balance was challenging, and support from leadership varied significantly depending on the department and manager. Many employees carried heavy workloads while navigating constant changes in priorities and processes.
If you’re considering joining Invo Healthcare, ask detailed questions about leadership expectations, organizational stability, career growth opportunities, and how performance is measured and rewarded. There are talented people throughout the organization, but in my experience, the company’s leadership and culture made it difficult to feel valued or optimistic about long-term growth.

I was sent to work at a high school as a 1:1, which wasn't my first choice, I started working on 8/28 and was given mediocre training and had a caseload of 7 children which quickly grew to 12 within a short amount of time. At the time of hire I was the only Aide working at the school whereas others decided to not even show up. The children on my caseload were in grades 9-12 with majority of them in 11th grade spread out between two buildings and 6 periods of classes in different rooms. The school was horribly run and the superiors that were in charge treated the children like they were their friends and couldn't control them which resulted in fights, children being disrespectful to staff and was pure chaos. I was stressed out and very vocal about the whole situation and had to contact Invo regarding the situation and expressed my frustration to the school staff many times. Finally, more Aides came to work and I happily informed them of the types of kids they were working with and introduced them. The managers started micro-managing staff and nitpicking at everything. Eventually, I was let go and quickly replaced with another Aide. I did not receive any support from Invo at all.

I have been with Invo about 2 years, and I absolutely love this company.  A typical day for me involves working on projects for the schools and the therapists I support. I have learned so many vital, resume-building skills such as SaS skills, Salesforce, and reading/updating contracts.  I have had the chance to sharpen my existing skills in spreadsheets, customer service, and clinical management.  The company culture is one of growth and learning.  I have been very lucky to work with people that mentor and train, instead of dictate tasks. Our whole whole team is better because of the culture of growth within the company. I love my co-workers, and the relationships I have built with them and the clients we serve makes my job feel meaningful.  I feel like I am making a real, positive difference in the world instead of just collecting a paycheck.  Invo is a company that genuinely cares about what we are doing--furnishing schools with vital related services and mental health professionals.  I get to work side by side with brilliant people that teach me every day and make me personally better. 

I really loved Invo when I first started because compared to other school-based ABA companies on the island they provided their RBTs with much more support. I really liked having a whole team at one school. But since I have started there have been some issues. The support system seems to be lacking now.  They are no longer to negotiate contracts and/or pay. In my first year we were guaranteed 35 hours a week and they did not uphold their promise. So far I have really liked all of my supervisors and they do make sure you get supervision for those working towards BCBA certification. There are a lot of pros and cons working for this company, but as far as school-based in Hawaii, Invo is probably the best option. They do not allow RBTs to take breaks because it is not required under Hawaii state law.  They also do not provide sick days for full-time employees because Hawaii law does not require it. When working with kids, you definitely want some sick days, because you will get sick. Overall they are okay to work for. They do offer sign-on bonuses and bonuses' for recruiting new hires. They also give you a bonus when you renew your contract.

Invo-progressus Healthcare was by-far the most professional and well-organized agency I've ever worked for. Management is always availableand willing to help. Its easy to love these wonderful people. They seem to hire staff members who mirror their spirit of servitude and compassion. The entire team is kind and honest. I cannot overstate how warm and appreciated I felt when I worked for this team of talented human beings. They really value their staff here! There is so much room for growth and management will help you to get there. They believe in humanistic components  and they always try their very best to accommodate a schedule that is compatible with your personal needs. You will grow tremendously with this agency and you will certainly learn everything you need to learn in your working title. Don't pass-up an opportunity to work with the best! If I were to remain working in my title as an RBT in the behavior health field, I would definitely choose to do so as an employee at Invo-progressus. Working at Invo made me feel like I had purpose. It was an honor to be part of such an amazing team of professionals.

The management is clearly inept at proper scheduling and employee management. Communication was not efficient and done in group emails instead of group text messages. Hours were not dispersed evenly and I saw some over worked and others not able to get hours. I witnessed management back stabbing employees in-front of others. The kids that were there for therapy spent 6-8hrs a day in small rooms with no naps despite being very young. There was a small gym room without a lot of toys and kids only got 1-5 minutes playing before forced to sit back in the room for “therapy”  Behavior therapists without understanding of Autism traits. Kids pushed to the point of crying and tantrum out of exhaustion and frustration. Other kids with developmental delays losing points because it takes them longer to process their answers or do tasks, instead marked non compliant or avoiding. I would never send my kid there.

Invo has been an extremely supportive, fun and educational environment for me over the past 10 years. Like all providers now, they are having difficulty hiring however, they revamped their entire training program in order to increase recruitment and retention. They have adapted with the times and continue to be a supportive environment with plenty of career growth opportunities. BCBAs have a lot of autonomy here but with the support of experienced supervisors. We have weekly 1:1 calls with our supervisors to discuss case conceptualization and other caseload/clinical topics. We have the support of the peer review group, insurance department, recruiting, marketing, IT, client services and our training team. Working here has allowed me to focus on clinical tasks while I depend on the other departments to support me. It is truly a team effort at Invo.

I was expected to be at the clinic at 8:30 AM and couldnt leave until 6pm (later if a clients parent was late) and was only paid for the time I was with clients (8 hours). If a client doesn't show or is late, you dont get paid for that time. RBTs and BCBAs are expected to work outside of session times without pay. No mental health support was available for RBTs or BCBAs. RBTs were treated like custodians and clients were in the clinic for more time than necessary just to make more money for the clinic. "Breaks" could not be more than 7 minutes without having to do 15 minutes of paperwork. Management took advantage of RBTs and BCBAs, they'd make you feel guilty if you had to call out for personal reasons but would expect you to accomodate them if they wanted to go home early. I loved working with my clients and most of my co-workers but I was not supported by INVO as a company.
