Hospital and SNF referrals are the fastest path to filling caregiver hours.
Identify the gatekeepers Discharge planners, social workers, and case managers. Get their names and emails.
Make their job easier Same-day intake, proof of insurance and licensure ready, and a 24-hour callback guarantee.
Stay top of mind Visit monthly. Bring data: average start-of-care time, fill rate, and client satisfaction.
