I am back stronger than ever

Thank You for all your replies.. I loved them. The day I wrote that depression, turn tail and run back to the nursing home crap, I received 5 new patients for home health. I have been doing this for almost a year now and it's wonderful. I will make about $70,000 this year alone.

Good news part 2... I am in transition to opening my very own "special needs care center". I have contacted medicaid, carestar, blah..blah and the wheels are moving. I have a busniess partner I found through home health and we're in the process of getting a home rezoned.

we plan on taking on 12 kids per day, 6am to 7pm, 5 days a week..We love home health but hate the smoke, perverts, bugs, lazy ppl letting us raise their kids and food that has actually gotten up and walked away..NASTY...

We plan on hiring 2 nurses and 2 aides, law states 3 kids per nurse. We will have speech and pyhsical theraphy. A movie room filled with bean bags, lunches and dinners, snacks..you name it..How most nursing homes should be..

the thing is..we are conflicted about billing.. how do we do it? group? Yeah, u think we would know this but it seems to be an insider secret. I also have a cousin who has 18 hrs a day available and I want to treat him as a pool agency would but also don't know how to bill for it. Heck, i could pay 2 nurses $20+ an hr and skim $7 an hr from the top like agencies do and pull in a grand or so a week on their work alone...any help here, my IP medical biller is clueless..said it couldn;t be done, but when asked how pool agencies do it, they got quite and ran away....

Any who..this 12 kids per day will be in access of over $15 grand per week...plus..they get treated how they should be..and.....they come to me.....any pointers...shoot em my way....thank you...Love being a nurse...Brenda

Have you considered an assisted living facility? A lady I know who is not in the health field just sold her furniture business to buy and run an AL facility. APPARENTLY YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO BE A NURSE!
