How to Build a 5-Star Home Health Onboarding Experience and Support New Hires From Day One

Between a rise in patient complexity in the home, more new hires entering the field, and changing patient expectations, hiring and retaining talent in the home care setting has become more challenging than ever before.

They’re joined by MedBridge leaders to walk through Well Care’s innovative onboarding and preceptor programs, how they run multiple onboarding tracks to meet new hires where they are, how hybrid learning is incorporated and structured, and how their emphasis on finding the right preceptors supports new hires.
