Case Study: Vesretta Home Care, LLC, NY, NY
​
Registered Nurse Entrepreneur successfully Launching a New York Home Care Agency with Expert Consulting Assistance from Emmanuel Consulting Agency.
​
Introduction: This is an inspiring case study that highlights the successful launch of a home care agency with the assistance of our consulting firm. This case study aims to encourage and inform other Nurses and healthcare entrepreneurs who may be facing similar challenges in navigating the complex landscape of regulations and requirements.
​
Background: Our client, a Jamaican born Registered Nurse in New York City, whose passion was in helping elderly in the home and who selflessly was the caregiver of her aging mother was inspired to start her own home care services. She had previously engaged another consulting firm to assist with starting a home care agency from scratch. Unfortunately, the previous firm failed to deliver the desired results in obtaining proper licensure, establishing a sound business structure, and meeting regulatory compliance requirements. Frustrated and unable to launch the business after significant financial investment, our client sought a fresh perspective and turned to our team for assistance.
​
Our Approach: Understanding the regulations and complexity, we took a comprehensive approach to address all aspects of the home care agency setup. Our expert consultants worked closely with the Nurse providing guidance, support, and the necessary resources to overcome the previous setbacks. Here's how we assisted our client:
​
-
Business Documents: We meticulously reviewed and refined all business documents to ensure compliance with industry regulations, including licensing, and correcting employer Identification Number. By tailoring these documents to our client's unique needs, we ensured a solid foundation for the agency.
-
Policies and Procedures: We developed comprehensive policies and procedures that aligned with industry standards and regulatory requirements. These documents covered essential areas such as client care, employee protocols, and quality assurance, providing a framework for smooth operations.
-
Creation of Forms: Recognizing the importance of streamlined processes, we created a range of essential forms, including intake forms, consent forms, and incident report templates. These customized forms helped streamline administrative tasks and ensured accurate and efficient documentation.
-
Training and Coaching: To empower the agency's president with the necessary skills and knowledge, we provided tailored training sessions and coaching. This included in-depth guidance on compliance, leadership development, and effective management practices.
-
Office Space Setup: We assisted in setting up a professional and fully functional office space, considering factors such as ergonomic design, efficient workflow, and compliance with safety regulations. Our goal was to create an environment that fostered productivity and comfort for both staff and clients.
-
Mock Survey Readiness: Understanding the significance of regulatory inspections, we conducted a mock survey readiness assessment to identify any gaps and ensure compliance with state and federal requirements. Our team provided detailed feedback and recommendations to address any areas of improvement. We prepared the Nurse for questions by the surveyor and with learning resources for continuing education.
​
Results and Outcome: Through our collaborative efforts, dedication, and expertise, our client successfully launched their home care agency. They achieved the necessary licensure, established a robust business structure, and met all regulatory compliance requirements. Our client's frustration transformed into enthusiasm and confidence as they realized their dream of creating a high-quality and compassionate home care service.
