About Us

As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

I'm Steve, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Practitioner. I recently started this website with the help of my wife who is a registered nurse in hopes that we can advance the knowledge of the post-acute care community.

I have worked in multiple nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and evaluated patients in their homes. I started as an APRN working for a SNFist group that was acquired by a major national corporation. Eventually, I was promoted to manager but felt the need to move on to greener pastures.

I started my own post-acute APRN group with my best friend and partner who is an internal medicine doctor. Since then I have been in a constant state of learning in regards to business development, ACO, nursing homes, assisted living, bundle payments, accounting, scaling, and more.
