Program Description: Take control of your recruitment and retention strategies by
creating organizational differentiators and creating an “army” of recruiters. This program guides you in creating a strategic recruitment
and retention plan that will cut out the middle “men” (expensive newspaper ads, boutique websites and major job boards) and help you reap
better results by arming your team with the tools, training and rewards needed to bring needed talent to your homecare and hospice organization.
With the right “walk the talk” behaviors, you can also compel top performers to “stay.”
Program Objectives: Upon completion of this program, the viewer will be able to:
- Discuss how and why to embrace agency differentiators
- Identify reasons to adopt a "DIY" recruitment strategy
- Identify ways to practice good recruitment and retention "hygiene"
- Discuss how to use Continuous Performance Improvement to fuel wanted
retention
