Worst place to work. They are unprofessional and they charge you to hire you but lie and say they are charging for CPR classes. They send you to Nasty clients with no gloves and they also do not tell you what type of home you are going to they just send you anywhere.

They make you pay for your own background check, motor vehicle check, tb test, drug test, and training. Yes even training. They will pass around a "sign in sheet" during the class. Make sure you read it. It says that you will be deducted for all of this at the bottom of that sheet. Felt like I was working to pay them.
