Conference Call for Hospice Innovators

Published

I am looking for at least 10 people who are currently involved in working with hospice - nurses, chaplains, social workers, bereavement counselors, marketers, administration, and/or volunteers - to participate in a conference call.

The discussion will be issues that will help us best get questions answered and concerns addressed for our communities about hospice. There are no strings attached, no money involved, only about 10 minutes of your time on the telephone. If you are interested, please e-mail me and we can discuss the best time and date for you to participate.

My hope is to post on this forum the positive outcomes of the call.:balloons:

Thanks

The conference call has been scheduled. You must register for the call and be on the call preferably within 5 minutes of the start time. If you can't participate in the call, the recorded session is available as a free download for anyone who registers.

I am excited to begin 2008 with this positive note. Topics will be chosen for future calls on this first episode. Relevant discussions that seem to be popular on this site include the "Profit vs. Non-Profit" dilemna and questions from nurses wondering if hospice is the right career choice.

I look forward to your attendance and participation. We can make a real difference in how hospice is presented and understood by the communities we serve if we blend some great thinking into a few minutes discussion.

Robin, thank you for sharing the conference call, I thoroughly enjoyed

listening. I thought you did an excellent job hosting and hope you get

more attendees next month. I thought Beth had some excellent input.

I've enjoyed Michael's input on this forum for some time, he usually goes over my head, but he kept it pretty basic but concise and thoughtful. I look forward to listening to the call next month.
