Welcome to The Home Care Experience!
After decades of working alongside the home care and hospice industries, we—Amy Taylor and Troy Brooks—have finally taken the leap into podcasting. Why? Because we have stories, experiences, and insights that we believe will be valuable to professionals navigating this ever-evolving field. Our goal is simple: to share knowledge, build a community, and have some fun along the way.
The Story Behind the Podcast
Troy and I met back in 2004 through the Texas Association for Home Care & Hospice (TAHC&H). At the time, I was deeply immersed in home care financials, while Troy was tackling regulatory and legal issues. Over the years, we kept finding ourselves dealing with the same clients, facing the same industry challenges, and having conversations filled with practical advice and plenty of humor. Eventually, we realized: why not turn these discussions into something bigger?
So here we are, launching The Home Care Experience with T&A!
What You Can Expect
Industry Insights & Expert Perspectives
Home care and hospice are ever-changing industries. Policies shift, regulations tighten, and businesses have to adapt quickly. Through this podcast, we’ll break down what’s happening in the field, share best practices, and offer insights from both a financial and legal standpoint.
Real Stories from the Field
Home care is deeply personal. Whether you’re a caregiver, a business owner, or an industry professional, you know that the work we do impacts lives every day. We’ll feature guests who have firsthand experience, from agency owners to compliance experts, sharing real-world stories that highlight the triumphs and challenges of this space.
A Sense of Community
One of our main goals is to bring the home care community closer together. In Texas, we’re lucky to have a strong network of providers and professionals who support one another. We want to expand that network and create a platform where experiences, ideas, and advice can be shared freely.
Why Home Care Matters
One thing we always emphasize is the unique nature of home care—it’s personal. Unlike hospitals or nursing facilities, home care brings essential services directly into people’s lives, ensuring they can receive care where they feel most comfortable. Patients thrive at home, and those who dedicate their careers to this field are making a real difference.
But let’s be real—it’s not always easy. From changing regulations to financial challenges, providers are constantly navigating obstacles. That’s where we come in. With decades of combined experience in accounting, compliance, and operational strategy, we want to provide guidance that can help home care professionals succeed.
Who Will Be on the Show?
We have a great lineup of potential guests, including:
- Industry Leaders & Experts from organizations like TAHC&H and HHSC
- Agency Owners & Entrepreneurs sharing their success stories
- Regulatory & Compliance Specialists offering guidance on industry changes
- Caregivers & Clinicians bringing firsthand perspectives on patient care
This mix of voices will ensure our episodes cover all angles of home care, from financial management to legal compliance and the day-to-day realities of running an agency.
What’s Next?
We’re starting with monthly episodes, with the flexibility to release special editions when urgent industry news arises. We’ll also be listening closely to our audience—so if there’s a topic you want us to cover, let us know!
As we move forward, our goal is to make The Home Care Experience with T&A both educational and entertaining. Whether you’re tuning in for compliance tips, business strategies, or just a good story, we want you to feel like you’re apart of a larger conversation.
So, grab a cup of coffee, hit play, and let’s dive into the home care experience together!
