New Year, New Challenges, New Solutions:

What Our Clients Are Saying

• Employee engagement efforts are a strategic priority that have helped our organization distinguish itself as a leading national hospice provider and employer. Simone Healthcare Consultants has helped AseraCare assess employee needs and perspectives to improve communication, increase satisfaction and reduce turnover in the workplace.

  - Andrew Sholly
  Vice President of Human Resources, AseraCare Hospice, National hospice provider with 50+ locations in 19 states

• Interim management is a worthwhile investment. Simione Healthcare Consultants helped rebuild our hospice program and supported the transition from interim to full-time replacement with the highest level of professionalism. They bring so much experience. You can underline that three times.

  - Michael Counter
  President, North Country Home Health & Hospice, Littleton, New Hampshire

• Simione Healthcare Consultants was instrumental in helping our agency evaluate its three business lines with a combined census of 400+, assessing operations, finance, sales and marketing efforts. Even when you have a strong organization, you have to recognize when you need outside help to achieve new levels of performance. The Simione team did a tremendous job, working side by side with our staff and building confidence through teamwork. Our experience greatly helped with retention, because team members said they felt engaged in the processes that they had helped to improve.

  - Holly Isom, RN
  Administrator/Director, Riverways of Ozarks Medical Center, West Plains, MO

• Our goals as part of a health system were to improve the care delivery model and consolidate two home care agencies. Simione Healthcare Consultants was a tremendous resource to help restructure clinical operations and business functions. We have enhanced team performance with more clearly defined responsibilities for intake, QAPI, survey readiness, and daily clinical management of patient care.

  - Angela Williams
  Vice President, Post-Acute Care, Aultman Healthcare in Your Home, Canton, Ohio

• From the start of our referral management assessment, we had a strong sense that Simione Healthcare Consultants really knows and understands hospice. They were highly professional, collaborative, honest and discerning about helping our team develop a new mindset for streamlining the referral process and gaining efficiency to support hundreds of referral partners in hospitals, nursing homes and physician practices. We’ve made great progress with hospice eligibility, the physician experience, intake, job design, and team communication. Simione’s expertise has contributed great insight for our upcoming EMR conversion, and we are poised for a greater efficiency and a new era in hospice to serve our eight-county region.
