In this episode of Home Health Revealed: Live from the Alliance Financial Management Conference, hosts Michael Greenlee and Sara Nigro are joined by Demetress Harrell, Founder and longtime CEO of Hospice in the Pines. With nearly 30 years of attending the conference, Demetress brings a wealth of perspective on leadership, collaboration, and the evolving role of technology in home health and hospice.

She shares powerful insights on:

• The importance of building true partnerships within the industry
• Supporting staff so they can effectively serve not just patients, but entire families
• How approaches to AI have shifted over the years—and what it means for the future of care
• Why attending the Alliance is invaluable for three reasons: learning from industry leaders (“Sometimes when you’re inside the whale, you don’t see how to float”), genuine networking that sustains, and gaining exposure to new technologies that can truly enhance outcomes.

If you want a thoughtful, heartfelt, and perspective-rich conversation on leadership in hospice and home health, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
