This book was developed at the request of our customers who lead the delivery of care to health and senior care patients, and residents. No health or senior care investor, Governance Board member, C-Suite Executive or Minister of Health could have predicted or budgeted for this catastrophic Global Pandemic and its continuous damage, costs and variants. No precedent, play book or manual exists to help with all of the challenges and issues that have been created. The Pandemic seems like a surreal nightmare though your return to work despite your physical and mental exhaustion daily and you see this is very real. Your employees face their issues, but you as their leader must maintain positivity and resiliency, maintain optimism, production and support. Your parents wanted you to be an attorney or a veterinarian, but you wanted to choose your own profession and work in healthcare. You were a highly successful senior executive before the Pandemic struck. Now you are being pulled in multiple directions and are still being held accountable for accomplishing your job objectives. The primary purpose of this book is to show you that you are not alone, and your stresses and challenges are being felt in all health and senior care organizations. It is to provide you with proven, credible solutions that have shown to work but you must be open-minded to change and committed to a new way of leading. Doing so will enable you and your employees along with your organization to become stronger and more resilient. The information was gathered through global interviews, focus groups, direct care givers, suppliers and vendors. Extensive research was also conducted and the book's contents was tested for credibility in global e-conferences, and round tables, but most importantly through the positive results of numerous solutions that were implemented by our customers. This book is not political, nor does it discuss the vaccinations. Because the subject matter and the topic are so intense a few relevant cartoons have been included for some levity. This is in no way meant to be disrespectful or to minimize the stresses and challenges you face daily. Give yourself a long overdue break and buy the book
