We are proud to celebrate 60 years of supporting safe, high-quality care delivered where people feel most at home. Since 1965, we’ve helped organizations raise the standard for community-based care, long before home health and hospice became the essential services they are today.

This milestone is a reminder of how far the field has come, from house calls to hospital-centered care and now back to innovative models that honor comfort, independence, and patient choice.

Strong growth starts with strong relationships. Consultative professionals understand that genuine success stems from trust, credibility, and meaningful connections.

In competitive settings like physician offices, consultative sales turns conversations into collaboration. By focusing on value and shared goals, sales teams become trusted partners who help physicians strengthen their patient base and improve outcomes.

We are grateful to St Christopher’s Hospice and Heather Richardson, former St Christopher's CEO and now consultant to the hospice and World Health Organization, for joining CHAP's Healthcare Leadership Workshop and for sharing her time, experience, and perspective with our community.

From our first meeting with Heather and St. Christopher's in London, it was obvious we needed to have her be a part of our Leadership Certification. Heather’s insights reinforced something we hold close at CHAP: strong leadership and meaningful collaboration elevate the quality of care, and when we learn from global leaders in hospice and palliative care, the entire field moves forward together.

Thank you for being part of this conversation and for advancing compassionate, person-centered care alongside us. We look forward to more opportunities to learn, connect, and grow together.

Accreditation should open doors, not create barriers. Yet too often, agencies face compliance burdens without support. CHAP is different.

For over six decades, we’ve been the only accreditor focused entirely on community-based care. We understand what agencies need—not just to meet standards, but to grow, improve, and lead.

Free access to CHAP’s standards: because quality shouldn’t be locked behind a paywall.

Direct access to CHAP’s Director of Accreditation and Quality Teams: so you get real answers, not just regulations.

Data-driven insights: helping agencies strengthen operations, improve care, and stay ahead of payer expectations.

Accreditation designed for real-world care delivery: flexible, innovation-forward, and built for the future of home-based healthcare.

Accreditation should be a roadmap to success: https://hubs.ly/Q03MD7rz0

According to a survey by The John A. Hartford Foundation, Age Wave, and The Harris Poll, 91% of older adults agree that their healthspan (the years they can live in good health) is more important than their overall lifespan.

Why does it matter?

This finding reminds us that aging well isn’t just about adding years; it’s about adding life to those years. Older adults want to stay active, independent, and engaged for as long as possible. That means healthcare should focus on treating illness and preserving function, mobility, and quality of life.

Age-Friendly Care at Home helps make that possible by aligning care with what matters most to each person; so they can live better, not just longer.

Every conversation with a referral source tells your story. The way your team speaks, listens, and builds trust can be the difference between a new partnership and a missed opportunity.

What are your teams saying when they’re in front of referral sources? Are they showing what makes your agency different? Do they have the confidence and language to turn conversations into lasting relationships?

CHAP Growth Solutions’ on-site Sales Certification Training provides your team with practical tools and proven strategies to enhance communication, effectively handle objections, and foster partnerships that drive growth.

Make 2026 the year your team transitions from discussing growth to achieving it. Give your team the skills to turn every conversation into a connection, and every connection into results.
