Veterans are recognized for their service, but the caregivers of veterans are rarely thought of as needing help. Fortunately, the United States Department of Veteran Affairs has programs to assist caregivers of veterans monetarily, emotionally, and physically.

As PBS has always said, "the more you know," the better. The healthcare industry is awash with value-based care rhetoric, and the power of data-driven decision-making to transform care delivery and reimbursement. But without the context to meaningfully engage with each person AS a person - patient, health plan member, healthcare provider, caregiver - we are perhaps missing the "value" point. And this miss has implications across cost, quality, and experience Triple Aim goals.

It may sound simple to build a single page app these days with so many tools such as AngularJs, Knockout, Backbone, etc. But very little is said about transforming an existing app into to a single page one.
I'll talk about how our team of 4 built the next generation of 8tracks.com. And how we used Rails + Sinatra + BackboneJs and Mustache to solve problems such as routing, SEO, legacy urls, legacy browser support and some other challenges.

Infinity Hospice follows the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO). The NHPCO offers professionals in hospice care a ‘Guide to Organizational Ethics in Hospice Care as a resource to hospice programs and professionals” (NHPCO, 2016). The organization’s core policies are driven by their values and mission statement. Infinity Hospice priority is to enhance their patient’s quality of life and help them live in dignity and comfort. They offer ‘dependability’ to the patient and to their loved one during their time of need for 24/7 care. Infinity Hospice Care’s mission is to bring comfort and value to our community. Our core values guide our team in providing the best family hospice and palliative care possible. If you and your family find balance with our mission and core values, we encourage you to speak to us.
The organizations second core policy is having a trusting team of experts. They have an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, counselors, and volunteers who work together to support each patient and their family. To accomplish this, Infinity Hospice provides the following hospice home services:
Medical care
Pain management needs
Spiritual counseling
Bereavement and grief counseling
Medical supplies and durable equipment
Every two weeks, all professionals from each discipline meet to discuss cases to find solutions for the challenges to the patients care. The third policy is ‘a strong desire to make a difference in the lives of others.’ This organization understands that at times caring for an individual and providing a supportive system to their family will mean going above and beyond care standards to deliver excellence. Infinity Hospice policy is committed to making the patient’s life better through the following actions:
Assess each patient’s pain and comfort during each in house hospice visit
Attentively listen and take action on family needs
Continually search for creative ways to enhance your loved one’s quality of life
Nurture the desire to make a difference in our team’s lives by supporting a healthy work/life balance
Unavoidably in healthcare there are policy implication and barriers that arise in care. Infinity is driven to enrich the lives of those who are at the end-of-life. However, barriers to Medicaid, Medicare and in the state of Nevada, Culinary Health insurance all have their own policies in which patient eligibility often factors into their quality of life. Social workers could greatly improve the effectiveness of policy and service efforts designed.

There are Major Challenges for Community-based Providers in the Growth of the Senior Population
Why an organizational assessment? -- Anticipated growth of 60+ population -- Limited funding availability for community-based services to seniors -- Fragmented provider system -- Were we truly a one-stop shop up to that point??
New Communications Systems: Focus groups New forms of technology Customer service training: do you have what they want; can you deliver it when they want; if not, then what? Quality management New prospect response and followup systems
