Team Wellness Center

Typical day, providing therapy to the adult population, complete intakes (walk ins) and complete case notes. There is little training and expectations are not near reasonable. They do not care if you are properly trained and will start you out with a case load which partly builds from walk ins and current cases. When you get clients that come in every week at the same time, their appointment can get pushed back, rescheduled or they have to wait because they will double book an intake over an existing appointment because intake assessments pay more.  This agency is FOR PROFIT, if you are passionate about helping others, this is not the agency. This is run by the productivity and money. They require you to have the CAADC-DP credentials but, they do not give you time to work on them (CAADC-DP, QMHP). This agency has a high turnover and working with colleauges that reported they were already written up in their first 90 days (maybe to make the "sign on bonus" not apply due to disciplinary action?) for productivity was disheartening. There are cameras in the hallways that are fed directly to upper management, some of the practices with clients is unethical but, continues. Some colleauges were passionate but, limited time to collaborate with treatment plans for different disciplines. The hardest part of the job is the agency seeing the clients as numbers and not being interested in truly helping them get better. Felt some of the clients were overmedicated with controlled substances (Adderall 30 mg 2 x a day- 60 pills per month) knowing there was a good chance they were selling them to get other drugs. If you speak up about it, you will have a target on your back. Most enjoyable part of the job was some of the colleauges were a pleasure to work with and the clients.  

Gained excellent knowledge of housing acquisition process for persons eligible for subsidized housing.  Gained extensive knowledge resources availible for individuals and families in need of permanent supportive housing.  Successful track record of placing individuals with co-occuring disorders and other health challenges into integrated communities.  A typical day consisted of team meetings with housing staff and individual meeting with clients clarifying client needs and linking members with housing that assured success on long term basis.   Housing specialist typically transported and advocated members at housing appointments. Case management included assisting member with application process.  Planned appointment with housing managers and viewing of housing that matched income levels.  Management reviewed and authorized funding for client assistance.  Housing specialist tracked member progress through electronic medical records linked to Wayne county mental health EMR systems.  Difficult days often occured because of scheduling conflict or conflicts with individuals securing documents needed to complete application packages. The client gaining their desired outcome was by far the most satisfying aspect of the job.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?

Leadership is the problem they pay you less money for the work they have you doing. They don't care about their employees and their employees mental health when the purpose of the business is to help with mental health. No one stays employed long at this job, majority of everyone quits because its honestly not worth it. The therapist are great and so are the doctors but the people they have in leadership positions are not good at caring about their employees or doing whats best for the business as a whole. The hours were crazy and everyday things changed without prior notice. A couple of the leadership makes business moves off emotions instead of logic, there is no growth and definitely raises are only 30 cents even if you've been there for years. They don't even acknowledge when their employees are doing good or even make them feel appreciated. They work you until its nothing left and then let you go!!

Team is a great place to work!  I've read the handful of bad reviews here and know that the reviewers are/were lazy slackers with little work ethic.  They spend time behind their closed office doors without clients, or lollygagging in the break room, or they stand around socializing and are inconvenienced when they have to see a client or render a service.  But look at the employees who are making a difference in people's lives.  Everyone of them are enjoying the work, collaborating with others to provide thorough services, putting in the extra hours, and going home at night feeling fulfilled. And they know that the clients appreciate their efforts! And the job is much bigger than just worrying about the "me me me."

Working for Team requires flexibility because things are always changing in healthcare.  Management understands that changes are difficult and they try to help people from becoming too stressed out.  The expectations can be high and people who aren't willing to work hard do not last long in the company.  But, people who put the time in are well rewarded.  They offer bonuses and promote internally.  There is a lot of room for advancement.  Some co-workers are negative about the company but it is usually just the people who are lazy that complain.  I've learned a lot about my field working at Team, and like that I can get supervision for my license hours.

Overall it was a learning experience. They were in a process of extensive growth and change which at times can be challenging. They had hired two dentists at one time prior to having a need for 2 dentists. Their efforts to have a mobile and stationary clinic from the start created challenges with costs overruns and tension with 3 providers (2 Dentists, 1 Hygienist) effectively utilizing 3 operatories since the mobile van was highly nonfunctional. With more knowledge, experience and time now with one dentist/one hygienist in place they should be better prepared if and when they decide to include mobile dentistry into their otherwise tight but adequate budget. 

I would not recommend applying at this company at all! Especially if you are in the medical field, apply somewhere else! The higher ups have their “favorite employees” while they will be unfair to other staff members. Do not trust or believe a word any of the supervisors or directors say, because they will change up their answer the very next day. You will not be happy or be able to achieve any higher goals at. This place needs to change the name to Recovery Lane, since the only medical they have at the Eastern Market location, was me and whoever the NP was. They will not train you properly or guide you correctly. They will micro manage you if they honestly don’t like you. 

Overall the company is very disorganized, expect you to do the work of three people do not pay nearly enough for a full licensure, no basic training, not proactive but reactive management, management talks down to all staff. Some managers have no experience in the field they are over. Impossible job expectations, Do not apply here… save your energy and find a more reputable company. This is an all quantity, no quality company as you are working to line the owner’s pocketbooks…. Owners care less about clients or staff. Colleagues felt the same so there is high turnover.
