Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, recorded live at the BAYADA Preceptor Summit, the hosts sit down with Kaylee Wilson, RN, and Divisional Lead Preceptor for BAYADA's Northeast region. Kaylee shares how one of the nation's largest home health organizations builds preceptor programs that actually retain clinicians—and what smaller agencies can learn from their approach.Kaylee's own experience shapes her work: as a brand-new hospice RN, her travel nurse preceptor disappeared after just two weeks, leaving her without support. Now she ensures no clinician at BAYADA experiences that isolation. Her role involves training preceptors, supporting new hires through skills labs and custom resources, and conducting weekly office check-ins to catch struggling clinicians before they quit.BAYADA's approach stands out: they actually train their preceptors through a two-hour program before anyone works with a new hire. Preceptors receive reduced productivity expectations during training, retention bonuses tied to new-hire success, and ongoing support from Kaylee's education team. Offices nominate potential preceptors, then vet them through documentation reviews. If someone needs additional development before precepting, they get it.The conversation covers why even experienced home health clinicians need to "learn the BAYADA way"—even though every agency operates differently, even with the same documentation systems. The hosts share their own experiences of being thrown into precepting with zero training, highlighting how common (and damaging) this practice is across the industry.Kaylee emphasizes that BAYADA's annual Preceptor Summit, leadership conferences, and recognition programs combat the isolation home health clinicians often feel. When you're visiting patients alone all day, it's easy to feel like "just a number." These systems ensure clinicians feel valued and supported from day one.For smaller agencies without BAYADA's resources? Kaylee's advice is straightforward: prioritize communication. Check in regularly, ask what clinicians need, and invest in people who can become great leaders. They'll pass that support down to the next generation, creating a culture that naturally retains talent.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Recording live and in person for the first time at the BAYADA Preceptor Summit in Boston, Dan, Lisa, and Dan get real about navigating holiday scheduling, managing last-minute patient cancellations on Christmas Eve, and the vastly different experiences of salaried versus pay-per-visit clinicians during the holidays. They share practical strategies for submitting PTO requests early (think September for December holidays), setting patient expectations in advance, and why showing appreciation for your scheduler can make or break your holiday season. The conversation also dives into what agencies can do to make clinicians feel valued during the holidays—from meaningful gift cards to well-planned parties where attendance isn't optional.

Despite having no prior home health experience, Liana leveraged her 18+ years of clinical expertise and determination to create an agency focused on filling care gaps she witnessed in hospice and assisted living settings.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Suit & Scrubs, hosts Brendan and Lisa welcome therapist-researchers Zee and Juhi to discuss their groundbreaking study, which surveyed 372 home health clinicians (PT, OT, and SLP) on job satisfaction and retention. The research, soon to be published in Home Health Care Management and Practice under the title "Beyond the Visit: What Makes Home Health Clinicians Stick and Tick," reveals that while scheduling flexibility rates highly across all disciplines, documentation remains universally frustrating—except for clinicians using cell phones, who report significantly higher satisfaction. The study found notable differences between disciplines: OTs are the least satisfied (representing only 8% of the home health workforce), while SLPs rate their job satisfaction highest despite facing larger territory challenges. Through candid discussions about workplace isolation, the importance of mentorship, and knowing what questions to ask before accepting a position, the episode emphasizes that retention isn't just about pay—it's about the daily tools, support systems, and flexibility that allow clinicians to thrive in an already demanding field.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Send us Fan MailJosh Tennant, an 18-year PT veteran, joins hosts the two Dans and Lisa to share how he went from the home health grind to working just three days a week through smart Bitcoin investing. After 15 years in home health, dealing with endless paperwork and evening patient calls, Josh discovered that even with regular raises, therapists are falling behind because real inflation (6-8%) outpaces our 3% salary bumps. Five years ago, he started buying Bitcoin at $35,000, and it's now worth $122,000. He explains that Bitcoin is different from sketchy cryptocurrencies because only 21 million will ever exist, making it scarce like gold. His advice is practical: start small with automatic weekly purchases (dollar-cost averaging), use hardware wallets for security, and think long-term (5-10 years minimum). You can even invest through Bitcoin ETFs in your Roth IRA. Josh now uses his Bitcoin as collateral for tax-free loans, which fund his part-time lifestyle without selling his holdings. Bitcoin started as just 15% of his portfolio, but now makes up 75% as his confidence grew through education. His main message is that therapists work too hard and remain financially stressed, but with proper education and strategic investing, financial freedom is actually achievable. He's offering to share resources and help fellow therapists who want to learn more.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Send us Fan MailIn this engaging episode, hosts Dan Haggerty, Brendan Kirby, Lisa Thompson, and Dan Catuccio welcome Josh Evers, a med-surg nurse turned home health professional with over 250,000 social media followers. Josh shares his transformative journey from seven years of hospital nursing, including three grueling years as a COVID nurse, to finding his true calling in home health after his wife literally filled out his application. What began as social media experimentation during the 2020 quarantine evolved into viral success, with some videos reaching 20 million views and earning public recognition. Josh passionately defends home health against "soft nursing" stereotypes, sharing powerful stories of meaningful patient relationships, including a patient who arranged for pastors to pray for Josh's autistic son and the deep connections formed over years of care. He candidly discusses the exhausting reality of balancing content creation with full-time nursing and family life, emphasizing that family always comes first. If his son wants to go fishing, the camera equipment waits. Josh's authentic personality shines through as he describes the independence and fulfillment of home health work, stating he wouldn't return to hospital nursing for any amount of money because he's finally found a job he truly loves. The episode highlights how home health allows for genuine patient relationships, personal growth, and the flexibility to pursue creative endeavors while maintaining meaningful healthcare work.

Dan recounts his transformative 5-year travel therapy journey that took him and his wife across multiple states, earning six figures by age 28 through a combination of hourly rates and substantial stipends, while experiencing diverse clinical settings from Alaska to California. The discussion covers the pros and cons of salary positions (offering stability and benefits but less flexibility), pay-per-visit arrangements (providing autonomy but requiring self-advocacy), and 1099 contract work (maximizing tax benefits and control while sacrificing guaranteed income). Key takeaways include the importance of negotiating for fair compensation regarding drive time and complex cases, understanding how different pay structures truly impact your bottom line, and choosing employment arrangements that align with your life stage and personal goals.

Send us Fan MailHome Health Suit and Scrubs Episode 21 Part 2 focuses on the practical realities of home health work and what truly drives clinician satisfaction or dissatisfaction. A significant portion examines the much-touted "flexibility" of home health careers, revealing the gap between marketing promises and daily reality. While home health does offer genuine flexibility - like adjusting daily schedules around family needs or personal appointments - it remains a demanding grind requiring 30+ points per week plus extensive documentation and driving.The hosts highlight important discipline-specific differences: PTs typically see 3-4 patients daily with heavier documentation that can be done at home, while PTAs often see 6-8 patients with longer face-to-face hours, making the job less flexible despite similar productivity requirements. Territory management emerges as crucial - Dan's ability to complete patient care by 2:45 PM depends on having reasonable drive times between patients, a feature not all agencies offer.Low census periods are identified as a central breaking point, particularly for pay-per-visit clinicians who can't pay their bills without adequate patient volume. The hosts discuss how agencies sometimes respond by expanding territories, requiring longer drives without additional compensation, which often triggers job searches.The episode provides practical retention strategies, contrasting effective approaches with common mistakes. Effective strategies include kudos point programs (Lisa describes earning 100 points per recognition, redeemable for quality items), drive time compensation, and genuine check-in calls from managers. Ineffective approaches include inconvenient appreciation events (ice cream trucks during work hours without productivity adjustments) and generic company swag.The conversation concludes by acknowledging the strong job market for healthcare workers - Lisa notes getting multiple job offers immediately, while her husband in tech struggles to get responses. This market strength gives clinicians leverage but also emphasizes the importance for agencies to treat their staff well, as replacement costs and disruption from turnover are significant.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Send us Fan MailHome Health Suit + Scrubs Episode 20 Part 1 dives deep into the challenge of identifying clinician dissatisfaction before it's too late. The hosts, speaking from experience managing hundreds of therapists, discuss how to spot the early warning signs of burnout and job dissatisfaction. They highlight that previously reliable, high-performing clinicians who begin missing productivity targets (dropping from 30 points to 29, then 28) are often mentally preparing to leave, especially when combined with increased absences and reduced engagement.A major theme is the critical difference between supportive and punitive management responses. Dan shares his personal experience of receiving an email reprimand after missing productivity for the first time in years, despite having valid reasons like conducting vestibular assessments and specialty work. This punitive approach contrasts sharply with the recommended supportive check-in: "Are you okay? I noticed you missed productivity this week - is everything alright?"The episode also explores how administrative decisions can inadvertently push good employees away. Lisa describes how her productivity requirements were raised from 27 to 30 points after consistently exceeding expectations, effectively giving her a $10,000 pay cut while increasing her workload. This type of "punishment for excellence" is identified as a major driver of quiet quitting.The hosts emphasize that major workplace changes - company mergers, EMR system changes, or policy modifications - are particularly vulnerable periods when agencies typically lose staff. They stress the importance of proactive communication and support during these transitions, including potential productivity leniency and additional compensation to help clinicians adjust to new systems.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Drawing from her extensive background in both acute care and home health, plus her current leadership role managing therapists across rural Florida territories, Tracy explores critical issues including optimal supervision ratios (maximum 3-4 PTAs per PT), communication strategies that achieve zero missed visits, discharge planning dilemmas when patients want extended care despite meeting goals, and the complexities of working across multiple EMR systems. The conversation reveals practical insights about setting patient expectations from day one, managing homebound status compliance, and the reality that PTA visits may actually be more valuable than PT visits due to increased patient contact time, while emphasizing that successful PT-PTA partnerships require proactive scheduling, unified messaging, and regular communication to ensure both regulatory compliance and optimal patient outcomes.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Working in a unique community-based program with six-month patient follow-up, Liz reveals the extensive scope of social work services that many therapists don't realize.Beyond basic referrals, Liz provides comprehensive financial support, including grant applications, recently securing $1,100 monthly COBRA coverage through a neurological condition grant. She handles Medicaid applications, disability claims, connects patients to community resources, and provides ongoing mental health counseling that's often inaccessible to homebound patients. Her extended timeline allows for meaningful rapport building and real problem-solving in patients' actual environments.Team communication emerged as crucial, with shared patient updates providing valuable clinical insights across disciplines. The therapists discussed what makes home health special: treating patients in their most comfortable environments and addressing meaningful goals in real-life settings.Liz's key message: "Never be afraid to consult... everybody just wants to be included and treat someone as part of an interdisciplinary team."

Send us Fan MailThis episode is an absolute must-listen for anyone in home health looking to expand their horizons! Our guest, Teresa Davis, takes us on her incredible journey from a speech-language pathologist who was initially terrified of home health to becoming the Executive Director of Hospice and Palliative Care Services at Accent Care in Chicago. Teresa drops serious knowledge bombs about what speech therapists bring to the table - think respiratory therapy for COPD and Parkinson's patients, breathing techniques for anxiety management, and how they can complement PT goals in ways you probably never realized. But the real magic happens when she shares her career transition story, revealing how every time someone told her "you can't do that," it became fuel for her next big move - from clinician to rehab manager to business development to executive leadership. Her philosophy is pure gold: treat the whole patient, prioritize customer service, be a servant leader who gets in the weeds with your team, and never stop learning. Teresa is honest about the daily challenges we all face in home health - from creating your own materials to obtaining additional testing for homebound patients - but she also shares game-changing solutions, like mobile swallow study trucks, that most of us didn't even know existed. This conversation is packed with practical insights and career inspiration that even Dan C. said he's going to rewatch. And, we're already planning a Part 2 to dive deeper into her leadership transition strategies. Whether you're a treating clinician wondering what's next in your career or a manager looking to lead with more impact, Teresa's story proves that your clinical background is your superpower for leadership roles. Make sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, check out www.careinmotion.co for resources designed for home health professionals, and get ready for an episode that might change how you think about your career possibilities!The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Send us Fan MailWow, Episode 10 of the Care in Motion Podcast was so fun! We got to hang out with Dan and Lisa, the creative minds behind some of the most popular home health social media accounts out there.Dan told us the hilarious backstory of how "Rose" came to be – picture him sitting in his car, drowning in startup documentation on a beautiful day, thinking "I have to make fun of this ridiculousness!" His first healthcare post blew up with 4,000 views; the rest is history. And that voice? It's just something he's been doing for decades, inspired by conversations with his wife (who's also a PT) about their workdays.Lisa started Home Health Chronicles after noticing nobody represented the home health world on social media. Despite being self-described as "shy" and "not that funny," she jumped in headfirst, creating memes about our daily struggles. Her content has evolved to include those anonymous confessions that sometimes make you go "Wait, that's Medicare fraud!" 😳The best part? Hearing how their content has created this amazing sense of community. Dan shared stories of people playing his videos at the start of meetings to lighten the mood, and Lisa talked about how her page gives isolated clinicians a place to feel understood. They've both been recognized in public – Dan at his daughter's soccer game and in Costco (of course!), while Lisa is just starting to put herself out there more.It was a genuine conversation about using humor to cope with healthcare challenges while creating connections in a field where you don't always get to see your coworkers.

Send us Fan MailHome health physical therapists regularly face unexpected disruptions or "curveballs" that impact their carefully planned schedules. The Care Motion podcast participants discussed several types of these disruptions, including traffic accidents, patient emergencies, and last-minute schedule changes. Their collective wisdom emphasized prioritizing personal safety first, maintaining clear communication with all parties, being flexible with scheduling, taking a step back when necessary, and planning strategically for known absences. Despite different payment structures (salary vs. per-visit) affecting how therapists respond to these challenges, the core message remained consistent: Effective communication and adaptability are essential, along with accepting that some days won't go as planned and learning to "roll with it."The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.

Send us Fan MailThe third episode of the Care in Motion podcast addresses documentation efficiency for home health clinicians. The hosts—Dan, Lisa, Dan Catuccio, and Brendan—share their strategies for timely documentation. While their approaches differ (Dan C. completes most documentation in patients' homes using voice dictation, Lisa prefers documenting at home between 2-4 PM, and Brendan finishes notes in his car between visits), they all emphasize establishing upfront expectations with patients about documentation during visits. Key recommendations include using technology effectively, documenting subjective information within the first five minutes, utilizing templates, taking 5 minutes after each visit to capture critical information, and knowing when to decline additional patients to prevent documentation backlog. The hosts stress that timely documentation is essential for quality patient care and encourage clinicians who struggle with documentation to gradually start small by implementing these practices.The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians.
