No Mission, No Margin: Creating a Successful Hospice with Care and Competence - Paperback

by Patrice C. Moore (Author)

Develop a CORPORATE CULTURE that puts PATIENTS and their FAMILIES FIRST. The MONEY will follow. Hospice work is not for the faint of heart. It takes courage, commitment and accountability to succeed. When hospice is at its finest, a properly trained, passionate staff can make a profound difference in the lives of the dying. Hospice regulations have become more stringent and scrutiny has become more intense. More and more, leaders have turned their focus to documentation and the bottom line and away from the mission of the work. Author Patrice Moore has the win-win solution. No Mission No Margin is THE essential guidebook for managers, board members, and other operational executives to build profitable financial plans that focus on what matters most - the patients and their families.
