Key Quotes:
- “I still was able to get to know people in this community when the world was completely shut down. I feel very fortunate for that. Because those relationships, I think, are very special relationships while everyone else was gone.” – H. E. Beau Bowman, III
- “We didn’t have a problem with working hard, we just needed to work a little bit smarter. And so, when everything kind of shut down, it gave me a really great opportunity to really kind of get knee-deep into analytics. So, I love analytics, I believe in analytics that drive good decisions and good behavior.” – H. E. Beau Bowman, III
- “One of the secret gems for me, when I think of hospice, is the respite care piece that a lot of people don’t really understand. It’s not just about giving the patient the care that they need in end-of-life. The respite care piece is giving the family member, the caregiver, a break.” – H. E. Beau Bowman, III
