Love it! The Boot Camp is fantastic!!! Best training I have ever been to!! Thanks for the opportunity!
Thank you so much for all of the information! It was truly one of the best work conferences I have attended so far in my career. I look forward to contacting you in the future!
Kurt K. and the Hospice Advisors team are the best hospice strategy and educational team on the planet. I’ve been in hospice marketing for almost 10 years, and I learned more strategies to “move the admission needle” in the 2 day boot camp than ever before! It’s the real deal. I didn’t want to write this review, because I wanted to keep Kurt’s strategies to myself and my agency, but I also want as many hospice eligible people to receive the gift of hospice. Definitely worth the investment!!!
“Really took a lot of great ideas away from you two-day Hospice Advisors Boot camp. Your enthusiasm was contagious and your upbeat manor keep all attentive and involved. Sharing your dropbox link with all the additional tools is an added bonus. Would recommend people from any level of hospice take a serious look at this seminar. Small investment and big returns – Thanks so much!

I have to say that this event was hands down one of the best program I have attended. VERY informative-Greg and Kurt are awesome!!!!! Keep up the great work Guys!!”

I received knowledge on how to grow and strategically develop a plan in order to effectively implement programs within our business.
We are from Hospice of Washington County. We learned valuable information and tools to help us with referral sources so that we can reach more people who need are services in our community.
GREAT Boot Camp. Thank you.
Hospice Advisors Boot Camp came at the very best time for our organization. The new CEO and myself are very growth oriented. But our agency needs “A Culture of Growth” paradigm shift. This Boot Camp gives us a road map with a very specific plan to roll out. I look forward to seeing the results.
A lot of helpful information. You can be a seasoned hospice or a new hospice and this class is just as valuable, Thank you for your help!!
I was able to receive a clearer understanding of hospice and the true definition of “leave no patient behind”
As a Director of Nursing it was absolutely beneficial to learn how to create of growth for our hospice agency. I can see how all will play a crucial role in the art of conversion.
I really enjoyed this experience!! It has given me many shiny objectives to choose from—-all of them bringing value to my agency. Thank you for the start of a great adventure!
Great Intensive!! I received valuable information that will facilitate our team and increase our census and customer satisfaction. This class is well worth the investment.
Hello Kurt and Greg…We made it home late Wednesday night. We are still feeling exhausted from all the fantastic and exciting information which Kurt presented. I am so grateful, Kurt kept repeating the saying, success by the inch is a cinch, success by a yard is hard. I tried to run as fast as I could yesterday, but realized I couldn’t implement it all in one day. This is going to be my mantra for the next several months. The concept of the gift of hospice really resonated with both of us. Being able to provide this beautiful service is our passion and what keeps us getting up to keep pushing forward. We would love to have an ongoing relationship with Hospice Advisor’s as you have a depth of knowledge which can help shape our future growth plan. We highly recommend Hospice Advisors Boot Camp.
“Hospice Advisors provided the tools for creating a culture of growth! I appreciated the challenges of really thinking about the why and how we do what we do. It’s one thing to make a difference but quite another to communicate that philosophy”
“This Boot Camp was very helpful – thank you”
“Conference was GREAT!! Many new tools for the tool bag”
“This session really motivated me. I attended at a time when I was about to throw in the towel. I’m new to hospice marketing and learned a lot”
“Greg and Kurt’s training on hospice growth strategy was professional, impactful and engaging. People of any level of experience will benefit from this workshop!!”
“Hospice Advisors provided the tools for creating a culture of growth! I appreciated the challenges of really thinking about the why and how we do what we do. It’s one thing to make a difference but quite another to communicate that philosophy”
“Great training with lots of takeaways. Focused training that touched on multiple levels of growth as well as addressing opportunities to implement a companywide culture of growth”
“I loved the interaction with the participants and learning different strategies for different segments. Kurt and Greg were vert personable and offered their time to answer one-on-one questions. Their sales training is the best!!”
“First I would like to say Thank you Kurt and Greg , you guys were great. I really enjoyed this class and learned more about my “Why” and it will help me with my gatekeepers”
“Kurt from Hospice Advisors gave our sales staff both an informative and energized sales training session on how our hospice company can service more people and grow. What our group especially loved was the role playing about the “why” and not the what when making a cold call. We also loved the information and approach on how to use value propositions when calling upon the 9-key referral segments Hospice Advisors suggested being focused upon. Thanks Kurt and Greg for your work with us.”
“Earlier this year, we engaged Kurt Kazanowski and Hospice Advisors for a two day session with our entire hospice organization. Kurt led successful sessions with both the aides and the nurses, social workers, clergy and additional staff. I am confident that our investment will prove to be very valuable. The time with Kurt generated a tremendous amount of thinking about our existing business, ideas for growth and generally served as a catalyst to help us take our hospice to the next level.”
“Greg and Kurt worked closely with my organization to “hit the reset” button on how we connect to healthcare providers throughout the communities we serve. With a need for interim management, we reached out to Hospice Advisors to also assess, plan, and implement improvements in several functional areas of our organization. Their approach to developing a ‘culture of growth’ was specific to our organization and market, and they worked at a detailed level in collaboration with our staff to implement lasting changes. They provided fractional management services to support our business development team and worked to streamline our referral to admission processes with positive outcomes – our referrals and admissions have both increased due to these efforts. Hospice Advisors team members demonstrated an understanding of hospice regulations and the types of clinical factors that impact eligibility and access to care which contributed to the success of their engagement.”
“Greg is a terrific innovator with one of the strongest work ethics of anyone I know. Greg is a change agent, known for his ability to set goals while elevating standards in the organizations he’s served over the years. On the development and marketing sides of the equation. Greg Grabowski knows how to reach the “promised land”, through focus, strategy, and just plain hard work.”
“Greg is considered one of the more entrepreneurial and forward thinking non-profit professionals I know. I have known Greg for over 20 years and he brings a unique blend of fund development, management and relationship building skills to the table. He is passionately curious about many subjects, but most importantly mission and family driven in everything he does. He is a valued colleague and friend.”
“Greg provided the vision and drive for quality improvement. He was eager to embrace new initiatives and understand the overall impact change would have from a customer and financial perspective. He brings unique experience to his clients from his breadth of experience. Having been in leadership provides a unique point of view and understanding which is added value to any engagement.”
“Greg takes the theories and principals of Jim Collins/Good to Great and Malcolm Gladwell/Tipping Point and blends them with his own remarkable business sense that creates tremendous critical thinking…this allows him to provide even greater insight and direction to those he works or collaborates with. He is decisive and influential as well as innovative and high-energy. When Greg says he creates an environment of empowerment and accountability, he means it but it also becomes contagious and allows that approach to trickle down through an organization. Who wouldn’t want that in a person when choosing who to work with?”
“I’ve known Greg and his work for more than ten years. He is a creative, energetic and thoughtful leader who is constantly pushing on the edge of the envelope. While working at Children’s Hospital I made it a habit to talk with Greg at least twice a month to see what ideas he was pursuing knowing he would be steps ahead of me in both innovation and execution.
Through the years I’ve also had a chance to witness firsthand Greg’s leadership in volunteer settings. As sponsorship chair for the local National Philanthropy Day (NPD) Celebration in 2001/2002 I worked on the team chaired by Greg. He made it fun, pushed me toward setting a new record for sponsorship and made it fun all at the same time. In my opinion, while there are many volunteers who have made NPD successful, Greg is the critical leader who made it possible for the event to reach the importance it enjoys today in the Detroit philanthropic community.
In a sea of professionals raising money and leading organizations, Greg stands out as someone who consistently accomplishes goals and pushes toward new solutions with a healthy sense of humor and a focus on the art of the possible.”
“I met Kurt in Moscow back in 2008. I engaged him to help us with our concept designs for a new hospital that was being built in New Riga (suburb of Moscow). His knowledge of health care with a focus on outpatient services was extremely helpful. Through our business relationship, together we opened a Home Health Care Company called First Home Care. When in Moscow, Kurt also worked closely with several hospices in town to strength their service delivery capabilities. Mr. Kazanowski is both an excellent health care professional and business man.”
“Kurt helped Glacier Hills acquire a personal care home health company. After the acquisition he spent time working with us to develop our Marketing and Business Development Plan which helped us grow our billable hours. Kurt has also worked with me to better understand how to use hospice in our senior community to enhance the quality of care and level of services we could offer to our residences. By blending his experience as a nurse with his business development expertise he offers a unique approach and style”
“I have worked with Kurt in two different hospice organizations. His passion, innovation and expert knowledge has helped lead these organizations to grow patient census and bring new business development processes and structure into place. Currently, Kurt is assisting me with the development and marketing of a new Palliative Care Consulting service. I would highly recommend any organization looking for assistance, call Kurt”
“I have worked with Kurt extensively and have consulted with him regularly over the phone on a number of issues over the last two years. Kurt has been very helpful in assisting my organization with our growth strategies in a number of different areas. Kurt has become a good colleague and friend.”
“Kurt was a perfect match for what we were exploring for our hospital and hospice program. His experience as a hospital executive, coupled with his tenure in hospice and home care, allowed him to quickly position us to have an immediate impact in growing our hospice services. Kurt worked very well with the Executive Director of our home care, hospice and palliative care services and helped her develop and execute growth strategies to allow us to serve more people. Specifically, Kurt has considerable expertise on the use of the General Inpatient Hospice (GIP) level of care and how it can assist hospitals deal better with those higher acuity hospice patients. I would recommend Kurt highly without hesitation!”
“Kurt has functioned as our Director of Business Development and spends three days a month on site and works remotely with our staff weekly. Through the development and execution of marketing strategies, field coaching with our marketing staff and helping us break into C-Suites; we have been able to grow our census by 53% over a period of year. Kurt has become a part of our organization and we appreciate his commitment to our mission and business objectives”
