Warmest of welcomes, and congratulations on this next step in your career!
The ARcare umbrella is vast, and whether you are joining ARcare, KentuckyCare, MississippiCare, Infinity, InfuseRx, Education Center, Pruitt, DeltaBlue, or Think Idea Studio, we’re all part of the ARcare Family. We’re happy to have you part of the fold.
Your New Employee Orientation will take place in Augusta, Arkansas. We love starting every employee’s journey in Augusta because that’s where ARcare started. Our roots are rural, and our network is made stronger by the small communities we serve.
Orientation begins at 8:15 a.m. ARcare Human Resources (HR) will contact you with the exact date(s) of your orientation. Orientation will be held at the ARcare Training Center, located at 105 N 1st St, Augusta, AR. Please note, HR will communicate with you via phone, email, and text message.
Orientation Attire
During your orientation in Augusta, please ensure you wear attire that aligns with your role, as it sets the tone for professionalism and helps you acclimate to our workplace culture. If you have any questions about what’s appropriate, don’t hesitate to ask.
Your photo will be taken first thing at Orientation, so please be photo-ready upon arrival. This photo will be used to create your company badge. The dress code for orientation is business casual for most employees. Clinical staff may wear scrubs if you prefer. You may find the attached photo guide helpful as you plan what to wear. Healthcare providers, licensed therapists, registered dietitians, and pharmacists will also have additional marketing photos and b-roll videos taken.
