Update: It has been over 2 months since AAHCS said they would contact me in their reply; they have not yet contacted me. Please see initial review below.

AAHCS is generally lacking in proper communication and has an odd way of offering shifts. As a new-to-practice, graduate nurse, I was offered work in long-term care communities during the COVID-19 pandemic, which requires lots of education and training to properly manage.

I did not know who my manager was, or that I was actually an employee, until I asked information why I was receiving text message offers for these strange shifts. When I asked my manager directly a couple questions about basic logistics, they failed to reply all three times despite saying that they were "responding now". I declined to work shifts as I did not consider the circumstances safe for me as a new-to-practice nurse.

By good fortune and personal networking, I was able to work the job I originally applied for, with very trustworthy management and staff handled outside of AAHCS. At this point, AAHCS simply provided paychecks, which were always timely and accurate.

AAHCS has to take a few measures, particularly in clear and accurate communication with its employees, before I can recommend them as a safe employer for practicing nursing, especially for graduate or new-to-practice nurses. Until then, please be cautious and stay safe.

Note: This review was sponsored by AAHCS in exchange for nominal monetary compensation; however, the compensation is being declined on principle.
