Presents its August Webinar:
"Building a Specialty Program to Serve Parkinson’s Patients and Older Adults with Diseases of the Central Nervous System"
August 22, 2013
4:00 pm Eastern
With Katherine Autin and Stephen Tweed
Research conducted in the home care industry by Leading Home Care shows that older adults who are affected by early onset chronic diseases like Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and ALS require more care for longer periods of time that most private pay home care clients. By crafting a specialty program to serve these clients, and by reaching out to clearly identified referral sources, you can serve more clients, deliver more hours of service, make a bigger difference in the lives of clients and families, and make more money.
In this interactive web conference, Katherine Autin, Founder and Patient of Parkinson Partners, LLC in Louisville, KY will describe the “Triad of Care” and how you can create a program providing these three levels. She will also help you understand all of the various health care providers who serve Parkinson’s patients, and how you can reach out to introduce your home care services.
Objectives: As a result of participating in the live web conference, you will be able to…
1. Understand the disease progression of Parkinson’s and other neurological diseases
2. Understand the care needs of Parkinson’s patients
3. Develop a focused program of care for Parkinson’s patients
4. Market and sell your specialty program to clearly identified referral sources
Free Bonus: Everyone who registers for this live web conference will receive a free Home Care Owners’ Guide to Understanding Parkinson’s Disease.
