Through the Consumer’s Lens: Redefining the Home Health Experience

Presented by Tim Altenburg, Chris Chimenti, and Mitch Comstock

Description

Home health leaders are currently caught in a tug-of-war between rising compliance demands and a shrinking clinical workforce. In the rush to solve for burnout and retention, we often overlook the most powerful diagnostic tool we have: the patient and caregiver experience.

Join us on June 4th as Medbridge’s Tim Altenburg and Chris Chimenti of HCR Home Care bridge the gap between clinical operations and the consumer reality. Drawing on Chris’s clinical expertise and firsthand experience navigating the home health system as a caregiver for his mother, the duo will discuss what care delivery really looks like from “the other side of the bed.”

This session dives into how the consumer experience relates to the hot topics keeping home health leaders up at night, including challenges like clinician retention, employee satisfaction, and patient care. You’ll leave this live fireside chat with a new framework for using consumer-side insights to drive sustainable growth and practical learnings you can put into practice at your agency.
