The SouthStart, LLC standard

Policy should do more than
sit on a shelf.

Your manual should translate regulations into an operating framework your team can understand and use. SouthStart, LLC creates policies with structure, clarity, and real-world implementation in mind.

Choose a manual-only package, or explore the joint model when your agency also needs licensing application, operational, accreditation, survey-readiness, or regulatory support.

California Hospice Providers

Have an Existing Policy Manual?

You may not need to replace it.

The California Hospice Regulatory Implementation Package was developed for existing California hospices that need to incorporate the state’s new requirements into their current policy and operational structure.

It includes focused policy updates, administrator implementation actions, ACHC and CHAP crosswalks, and updated job descriptions.

Update the areas that changed without purchasing an entirely new manual.
