More about Angels Care Home Health
They report sites in 11 states, including Iowa, and list 1,001-5,000 employees. Their own postings say the company is nationally recognized as a Great Place to Work. Work/life is the score that holds up: about 4.2 company-wide and 4.5 among the few RN reviews. A current in-home caregiver called the schedule flexible and the environment a good place to work. Across 205 Glassdoor reviews the company sits around 4.1, with roughly three-quarters saying they would recommend the employer. The RN-filtered set is only three reviews, and those put the job around 3.2 overall, compensation around 3.4, and career opportunities around 2.9.

Iowa is a compact-license state with a flat income tax near 3.8%. We do not have posted pay for this Ankeny role yet.
