As a private duty home care CEO you're bound to lose sleep
occasionally. You have to be passionate about what you do. As
I always say, you need passion because there are easier ways to make a
living.
I
ask you, "What keeps you up at night?" Is
it your clients? Probably not. Is it your scheduler?
Probably not. The most likely cause of lost sleep is your
caregivers. To be more accurate, your worst caregivers.
Some
caregivers cancel too frequently and turn you into a customer service
firefighter. Other caregivers commit offenses that are unethical,
if not illegal. Finally, there is the well-meaning caregiver that
puts you at risk because he or she just isn't the sharpest knife in the
drawer.
Chances
are that most of your sleepless nights in the past year have been
caused by caregiver quality issues.
Could
it have been prevented? The caregivers passed your background
checks, reference checks, and drug screenings; yet in retrospect they
weren't good hires. Besides gut instinct, what else should you
have relied on?
If
you've had even one sleepless night in recent memory, you owe it to
yourself to check out our white paper on our Caregiver Selection
System. To get a free copy of our white paper, send an email
request to Diane West.
She will email you the white paper and set up a free demo.

Strategies and Insights to
Grow Your Business
Nothing happens until someone sells something. That's just
as true in home care as any other business. Yet many home care
professionals are uncomfortable with the idea of "selling and
marketing". The words conjure up images of fast-paced Madison
Avenue types hyping the latest and greatest something or other.
Every
home care executive must be a marketing professional.
You
should plan to attend...
