Welcome to CHC
Approved Administrator/Manager Certificate Programs!
CHC started in 2008 with industry experts who have over 80 years of combined experience. These experts in quality health care include former state surveyors, agency-owner/operators and practicing clinicians with hands-on experience they share in foundational courses. They don’t teach this stuff in business school or any other school. Connie McWilliams initially formed the group of people interested in teaching others. Connie has 35 years of home care experience - 20 years as the owner/operator of a Skilled Home Health Agency that also provides Non-medical Personal Care, Adult Day, Outpatient Rehabilitation and Transportation -- and 15 years in training and consulting with hundreds of providers both local and national. Courses are aimed at today's Administrators and Managers using simple, straightforward terms. Our mission is to help you in establishing and managing home-based care and services. Approvals: CHC is approved by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) for all Home Health and Home Care Administrator/Manager courses.
Home Care workplaces can be complicated and challenging to navigate and manage. CHC training is geared to Administrators and Managers so they excel in operating a compliant business. CHC consultants use federal and state regulations and law, as well as accreditation and best-practice models to explain and provide examples. The emphasis is on creating understanding from your perspective so everyone in your organization is more effective in day-to-day operations.
CHC provides Health-department-approved training curricula for the Administrator and Manager in a start-up or a long-standing agency. Always mindful of boundaries in federal and state laws and regulations, we guarantee that you will come away with greater understanding of the conflicting demands in your operation. Understanding translates to effectiveness, which allows you to maximize the efficient use of scarce resources.
Conformity with regulations is required in all areas of operations. The scope of services and audiences for each creates a structure that requires compliance. Key compliance areas include Governance, Consumer Rights and Access, Supervision, Quality Improvement and Performance, Billing and Revenue, Back-office and Field Operations, Human resources, and more! CHC consultants understand the deep contexts of home care and compliance. Our step-by-step assistance ensure your understanding is extensive so you can apply what you learn immediately.

What Our Customers Have to Say
Connie McWilliams is a talented and gifted instructor and facilitator. She has the ability to take dry, legalese material and bring it to life in the classroom. She combines her expert knowledge of state regulations and business management with real-life stories and examples that make it easy for participants to grasp the essentials and feel some confidence moving forward. Her practical, sound advice on how to prepare policy and procedures and support documentation for the initial licensing evaluation visit by the Colorado Health Department made my licensing evaluation a smooth, effortless event. I received zero deficiencies and several compliments from the examiner. I would recommend Connie and her company to anyone seeking consultation or training in Colorado healthcare without reservation!"
