Consulting for Home-Based Therapy

Prepare your home health professionals for accreditation and audits and help your agency navigate the complexities of in-home healthcare.

Running an agency comes with a lot of risk.

Changes in federal and state laws and constant changing policies and systems means your agency has to constantly keep up with requirements. Add on top of that the complex nature of in-home therapy, and it can be difficult to know how to help these healthcare professionals navigate ever-changing environments.

Whether it is ethical or legal issues, safety issues in the field, or supervision and staffing challenges, your work may seem never ending.

Protect your staff and agency with evidence-based consulting

You and your agency provide home-based services to the most vulnerable members of our communities. Your staff need your support to continue these services. Whether you are looking to improve practices in documentation or creating a safety protocol for community providers, consulting can help you create a culture of mindful practice throughout your agency.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I help agencies just like yours navigate the risks of home health so your staff can be prepared for any situation. As both a home-based professional and researcher, I know the challenges you face when you see your clients in their homes.

Areas of Specialty

Safety in home health

Home healthcare brings a number of uncertainties and safety issues. Help your staff feel prepared for a variety of risks when seeing their participants in the home.

Ethical issues in home-based services

Home-based clinicians aren’t just making decisions off of ethical guidelines: they also have to consider cultural issues, legal issues, agency policies, and moral issues. Give your staff the tools they need to make better decisions even in the unusual situations that can come up in community mental health.

Burnout Prevention for healthcare professionals

Home health professionals are at a high risk for vicarious trauma, secondary trauma, and burnout. Invest in the wellbeing of your staff, your participants, and ultimately your agency by exploring potential solutions for staff burnout and high turnover rates.
