VitalCaring Group

I started at Vital Caring in July 2024 with no office experience. I was given direct support from senior leadership every single step of my orientation. Following that, a peer mentor was arranged for me and that person remains my contact over a year later. The support during training is unmatched compared to my 15 years of Home Health nursing experience amongst several competing organizations. 

Admittedly, I am a question-asker and not shy to reach out with questions and concerns. My leadership, peers, and team in EVERY department has received an objectively silly question from me that may prompt an eye roll in other organizations…here at Vital Caring, I have received NOTHING but support and genuine caring in every single interaction. From payroll to HR to interacting with our local branch team-every single person on the team has been incredible. 

The culture within the company is something that makes me proud to come to work everyday. I worked for April Anthony’s previous company and while it’s hard to verbalize it properly, there was a huge void left when she exited the organization. Now, working with her again-the spark is back and that special *something* she brings to an organization is able to shine!  

With that, the accessibility to leadership is something I’m not used to experiencing. I have been given praise directly from our CEO and CFO who read and respond to emails swiftly and are involved in the organization at the branch levels regularly. There is no “C-suite mindset” here-simply senior leaders who believe in the mission and work beside the team to make this an amazing place to work. 

Within the Ocala branch specifically-we have  quarterly team building events that have included: escape rooms, holiday parties, color parties, dinners together, and more. We have weekly in-person case conference with our entire team to help foster a collaborative environment. We also have once monthly celebrations (anniversaries, promotions, birthdays, graduations, etc). Home health should NEVER feel lonely and detached from the team and our branch puts intentional effort into fostering a culture of caring and togetherness. 

As someone who has worked with seriously toxic leaders-I REFUSE to ever become one. I lead the team with intention, kindness, transparency, and a willingness to look within when challenges arise. 

I take great pride in my position here and firmly believe our team is the best around! 



What is the best part of working at the company?
I have been a nurse for 23 years.  Vitalcaring is by far the best company I have ever worked for. They stand by their mission statement, their integrity respect the patients, families and employees. I can’t say enough positive things about Vitalcaring. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When I first started our office was new, the hardest part was not having enough patients in the beginning to stay busy. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Morale, integrity, they listen to their employees. They really support the staff while being consistent in providing guidance and education on any weak areas we may have. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I get up, gather what I need for the day and begin seeing my patients as I set them up the day prior. Finish my day and go home.

Company DOES NOT pay out PDO, limiting employees to a maximum of 40 hours at any given time and if you earn more than that they pool it away in a "extended illness" bank, which means you basically lose all access to it. If you turn in a proper notice,  they will not pay out your remaining PDO that you earned. They never have supplies available in office meaning field nurses are up a creek with wound care due to the poor shipping of supplies,  they greatly limit the amount that can be spent by a patient, regardless of medical necessity. The management only cares about their earnings, and care more about admits than being able to actually see existing patients. They'll assign 20 people to you in a day, despite 8 being about the most you can realistically see, and then admonish you for missing visits. 

Half the field nurse staff turned in their notice in one week due to the horrible mismanagement of the company. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Administration does not work effectively. They do not provide a collaborative work environment. They will lie to you and about you. Not a trustworthy company. No team work . No orientation program they put you in a room and assign you videos for 5 days and there is no one who can answer any of your questions. Administration assigns too heavy of patient loads approximately 8-10 patients daily. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Administration will tell you one way to perform a task and then later change it up to make you seem incompetent 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Horrible culture. Huge turnover rate

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The patients are great . Leadership is awful

What is the best part of working at the company?
The area is understaffed due to the excessive amounts of travel required from the field nurse. Low pay. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Understaffed, travel about 150-200 miles per week, lack of support from office. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressful, lack of support, must watch your pay stubs closely, company “forgets” to pull state taxes and sis not inform workers, pay is lowest in state

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Begin seeing patients at 8am. Office will add patients to your schedule without alerting you. A lot of backtracking to see the patients office added. Many nurses work until 7pm.

I highly recommend working for Vital Caring 
Management is extremely helpful and supportive. My coworkers and work as a great team. The hours are great and benefits are really good as well. If you are looking for a home health job that is rewarding , are a team player and want really good compensation Vital Caring  is the home health/hospice company you want to work with. They hire exceptional staff that have a passion for helping others and making a difference if patients lives. I have 30+ years as a PT and honestly this is the best company I have ever worked for!!

Initially, the role offered a flexible and engaging work environment. However, over time, patient assignments became increasingly spread out geographically, with limited consideration for travel time. The expectation to not only manage one’s own caseload but also cover for other nurses calling out—without reciprocal support when taking personal time off—created an imbalanced workload. Communication among staff was often lacking, and management appeared to be out of touch with day-to-day operations. Although the position was advertised as an 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. role, the actual hours were highly dependent on patient availability and scheduling, often requiring extended hours.

I’ve really enjoyed my experience at VitalCaring. The leadership team genuinely cares about employees and works hard to create a positive, supportive environment. HR and payroll teams have also been great to work with and is always willing to help when needed.

The company is continuing to grow, which makes it an exciting place to be, and there are a lot of good people here. I’m surrounded by supportive co-workers and leaders who are respectful, approachable, and team-oriented.

The PTO benefits are a huge plus, and overall it’s just a place where I truly enjoy coming to work each day.

 A typical day involves coordinating with clinicians, managing patient information, answering calls, scheduling, and helping with communication between staff and patients. 
The day is usually fast paced and makes your day go faster.
What I have learned is that you have to have great communication  and team work with the nurses and patients.
We have great supportive management and is always there with any help or needs that come our way. 
I love working at vital caring and all the staff. They make you feel at home.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I was taking care of my patients 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working for managers who accepted patients that wasn’t hospice appropriate. And management was terrible.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very stressful, unfair and hostile work environment.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Not bad if you where able to do patient care that was appropriate
