Program Description:
“Lead With Purpose: Transforming Home Care Through Intentional Leadership” is a session built for every level of a home care or hospice agency — from executives and clinical managers to field nurses, home health aides, and coding and office staff.
The session opens by confronting a hard truth: leadership is not a title, it is a behavior, and it shows up — or fails to show up — in the most consequential moments of patient care. Through a powerful opening story about a home health aide who hesitated to escalate a patient concern because her questions had been dismissed the week before, attendees quickly see that leadership decisions ripple directly into clinical outcomes, quality scores, and regulatory risk. The session then introduces the CARE Framework — four pillars of intentional leadership (Clarity, Accountability, Resilience, and Empathy) — and walks through how each pillar is practiced differently at every role in the agency, from the bedside to the billing office. A dedicated segment connects leadership culture directly to CMS-measured performance, showing that OASIS accuracy, HHCAHPS scores, rehospitalization rates, and staff turnover are all downstream of how leaders behave day to day. The session closes with an honest conversation about burnout, six practical sustainability tools leaders can implement immediately, and five specific Monday morning commitments that every attendee — regardless of title — can take back to their team. The goal is not inspiration for its own sake, but a room full of people who leave with something real, something named, and someone in mind.
