Strategic Staffing for Home Health Care Agencies

Refocusing Your Process for Recruiting and Retaining Nurses, Therapists, and Home Health Aides

Stephen Tweed, CEO of Leading Home Care, wrote the book on home health care recruiting and retention … literally.

Stephen and his co-author, Catherine Fyock wrote the book, Strategic Staffing:  Finding and Keeping the Employees You Need in Home Care in 1999.  Since that time, Stephen and his team at Leading Home Care have continued to refine the strategic staffing process for home care companies. 

The Strategic Staffing Process at leading home care has five key elements:

  • Assessment - Determining the strategic position your company now holds in the recruiting marketplace.  Assessment your employee retention results and identify your strategic staffing issues.

  • Direction - Create focus and direction for your agency with an emphasis on finding and keeping the staff you need to grow your company.  Using our unique data collection and presentation process, we will help you focus in specifically on the most likely sources of referrals in your marketplace.

  • Competitive Advantage - Separate your company from its competitors, position your agency for growth, and communicate your unique factors to your customers. Define what makes your home care company unique in the recruiting marketplace, and build that differentiation into your recruiting message.

  • Marketing Strategies – Define specifically how you will get your recruiting message out to your key customers and referral sources.  Write business building copy for your recruiting materials.  Explore Leading Home Care’s newly created Web-centric Marketing and Recruiting Process.

  • Measurement - Define the numerical indicators of your success, develop a Strategic Staffing Scorecard to measure your progress and demonstrate those measurable results.

  • Implementation – Receive ongoing support from Stephen Tweed and his team over the next year to coach you and your team through the implementation of your strategic staffing plan.

Each strategic staffing plan is based on a solid, proven model that we have been using with home health care companies since 1982.  Then we customize the process to make sure it fits the size, shape, depth and breadth of your home health care company or your home care association.

If you are a home care executive who wants to grow your business and get ready for the future, then you’ll want to set up a personal telephone conversation with Stephen Tweed to discuss your exact needs.  Together, you and Stephen can tailor this process to your exact specifications. 

The result will be a strategic staffing planning and coaching experience designed to take you and your company into the future.
