In their own words

"We provide nursing, rehab services and hospice care for geriatric patients in the home, who oftentimes are recovering from illness or surgery or in the last stages of life," says Amanda Jennings, senior account executive.

About the culture

Encompass uses an internal job posting program to advertise leadership position opportunities to all employees so they can apply for the positions before external applicants. Last year, 74 percent of supervisory positions were filled by existing employees. Encompass offers three types of health insurance plans and two dental plans.

Employees say

"I enjoy the people I work with. I love that we all have the same common goal -- to take care of patients and bring good to our community."

"I have the flexibility to manage my own schedule and choose my areas of focus. Also, I absolutely love working for my boss. He is kind and incredibly supportive."

"I love my patients! I love going in to their homes and learning more about them. And I love the flexibility to make my own schedule."
