Consulting

No Mission No Margin

Healthcare and hospice organizations today face a fast-changing marketplace, and an ever-growing list of regulations to follow. Here at The Watershed Group, we work with a wide range of organizations to leverage these challenges into efficiencies and productivity.

Our founder and president, Patti Moore, is a sought-after consultant with over three decades of experience as an executive and consultant in the hospice field.
Her unique perspective as a former executive, combined with her compassionate style of leadership, helps companies seize upon critical turning-points to ensure future success.

Many of our consulting clients come to us during “watershed moments,” including periods of extreme growth or decline; new program development; organizational restructuring; reduced resources; or change in culture or leadership. Under Patti’s guidance, The Watershed Group tailors its consulting services to meet the specific needs of each situation.

Regardless of the challenge at hand, Patti works closely with consulting clients to:

  • Perform a detailed organizational assessment to identify strengths and weaknesses
  • Redesign the organization for increased productivity and efficiency
  • Align the organization’s mission with its vision, thus improving company culture
  • Identify and acquire the right talent for key leadership positions within the organization
  • Determine specific department responsibilities for increased efficiency
  • Identify potential threats to the business, and potential opportunities for growth

In particular, Patti offers expert consulting to hospice and palliative care organizations, whose current environment is changing rapidly. The Watershed Group helps clients weather the storm of healthcare reform.

When consulting for her healthcare clients, Patti starts with one powerful question: “What does your organization look like from the outside?” To get the answer, she conducts in-depth interviews with referral sources, physicians, donors, and community groups who regularly interact with the organization. She then looks internally by doing ride-along’s with clinical staff, interviews with managers, executive team members, and boards of directors to determine strengths and weaknesses from the inside.
