What this episode covers
We’ve been asking the wrong question. Instead of “When should we bring in home care?” We should be asking: “What if we brought it in before it was needed?” In this episode of the Your Health University Podcast, host Jamie is joined by Brigette Harrell, Director of Facility Operations at Your Health Primary Care, to reframe the way we think about home care—not as an end-of-the-road solution, but as a strategic lever that helps seniors stay independent longer, avoid hospitalizations, and live with greater dignity. Together, they unpack the misconceptions between home care and home health, share deeply personal stories, and offer a blueprint for how facilities, providers, and families can build proactive systems of support. If you're in healthcare—or simply care about someone aging—this episode will make you think differently. About support. About leadership. And about what it really means to age well.
