A study of hospice administrative competencies and delegation of functions by program stage of development in
Abstract:
There are definable stages in hospice program development which require significantly different administrative competencies. In many instances, as programs move from one stage to another, there may need to be significant changes in administrative functions, delegation, and perhaps even changes in personnel. This article reports a study of hospice administrators in Michigan in which they determined not only which stage of development they believed their hospice program to be in, but also what essential competencies they needed in managing the day-to-day operations of their hospice programs.
