incentivise reduction in labour costs without compromising care and outcomes
After all the vultures get their share the actual wage paid may not be so high

I have (had ...dummy) some street cred in building teams and relationships , a great place to work
high on cameraderie and low on new age social (me me me) engineering can be
more attractive than just the hourly rate if well done.
Needs an holistic approach , meeting the multifarious needs of folks who can pay for the service.

the kernel of an idea
Needs a bright young outgoing go getter, incentivised and well paid just like any start up business

Maybe a coordinator that assists in setting up each satellite co-operative group (there's the name). Members only pay for their individual need and the advantage is they will always have the same person or group of people assisting them at cost.

Well I finished a hospital to home transition some 5 week ago. A totally disorganised bunch. Still looking for an alarm system which the insisted I have. The coordinator of my package picked it up at home herself 4 weeks ago.

But on the home front things have improved considerably. I am back up over 70KG so BMI just in the normal range.
The turn around with Mrsdron after a consult with our GP. He didn't pull any punches. shocked her. But that night she cooked own dinner and ate it. Her appetite isn't Great but having 3 meals a day.
Also taken up knitting again and we have been out to a restaurant.
Now our thoughts have turned to travel.

No after our experience. We have a private cleaner who does more in 4 hours than our package did in 10 weeks.

Interesting. Not surprising -some say the whole thing is constructed to reward hours rather than outcome.
