When hospice reverts to the lowest common denominator and leaders obsess about metrics, it's time to speak. Self-inflated leaders assume clinicians give until their backs break, given no raises for years. A clinical ladder is a rainbow’s pot of gold. Others have a sorrier job and must be motivated by money. Abysmal leaders dangle extrinsic rewards for admission, hiring and EDBITA targets. “Sign on” bonuses entice people into a poor work environment. Employees’ voice equals their raise, zero.

Generic Retirement: Any Gifts?
Strange Tony,
Congratulations on your retirement. What did Generic Hospice give you for decades of quality performance? Was it a gold watch, a fancy pen, maybe a 19 gun salute? More likely it was a security escort from the building while you hauled your box of memorabilia. To honor your character the guard searched your belongings for any potential booty that might cause great financial harm to Generic. Can't harm those executive bonuses.
My new company cast stock upon the waters for Kindred executives on February 23rd. Paul Diaz received $1 million in stock. His $6 million check will trigger for payment on March 31. That's $7 million in five weeks. Gentiva's David Causby already has $1 million in Kindred stock (at today's stock close).
Good thing you didn't steal any ink cartridges, reams of paper or file folders. Otherwise that security escort becomes a one gun apprehension. Stay safe, my friend. Please write when you get the opportunity.
