Autorenporträt

As a young girl, I knew I wanted to grow up and make a difference in the lives of other people. What I had not planned on was the difference others would make in my life. My name is Jeffie, and I am the owner of a for-profit home health-care agency that I started from the ground up. If given the opportunity to do things over in my life, I would change only one thing, and that would have been to start my own home health-care agency years ago. I began a lifelong adventure in the health-care field starting as a nursing assistant and then becoming a licensed nurse and finally becoming an administrator in the long-term care industry. I served as an administrator for nearly twenty-three years before leaving. I was not ready to retire, yet I did not want to relocate to another city just to continue doing what I enjoyed doing. For years I watched how other divisions of health care operated and was intrigued with the home health-care area. Unlike the long-term care industry where I was strong and knowledgeable, I had great difficulty piecing together information needed to open a home health-care agency. I put months of hard work into researching and reading everything I could find. Once I had a good knowledge base for the home-care industry, I talked things over with my family, and I knew I had their support and commitment to help me-so I decided to go for it. Because of all the struggles I had trying to get information on opening up a home health-care agency, I decided that no one should have to go through all the trouble I did. If left me with no choice but to write this book. If your dream is to open a home health-care agency, I know the information in this book will be very beneficial and I wish you the very best in your endeavor. In this book I have included several forms that I developed for my agency along with the employee handbook outline and admission booklet contents. You may use them to help you develop your own booklets with written permission. I do know you will benefit from this book immensely in helping you to open your own home health-care agency. Each chapter may seem small, but the actual work done to achieve the goal is great. Much of the information provided in this book is done simultaneously. I do not claim to have included all the steps in this book that may be necessary, and requirements will vary from state to state.
