Maxim Healthcare Services (Home Care)
McMinnville, OR, USA
Our Transition Team is a supplemental care unit of skilled nurses whose primary function is to quickly and efficiently get cases home while primary nursing staff are actively recruited. The team also supports the local office by covering potential missed opportunities.
Transition Team nurses provide care for all authorized hours in a home during a provisional period between 1-90 days. During this time, our office staff will be recruiting to identify full-time, replacement home healthcare nurses. The new caregivers will have an opportunity to train and shadow in the home with the Transition Team caregivers prior to working independently with the patient. Once the replacement nurses are trained and have a schedule, the Transition Team are then phased out of the home.
• This supplemental care model improves quality by placing highly-trained temporary staff in the home, shifting to
equally-qualified long-term staff....
