When I started this current home health assignment, my friend Kristen told me to ask about if the company provides a home health kit. This is a GREAT question to ask during interviews as well as if they have recommendations for what to pack in the kit. My company told me they were planning on…
Now that I have been working my first home health assignment for a whopping 1.5 months, I’m basically a pro. Totally kidding, however, I have learned how to prepare for potential HH interviews!
