Meet Bob Holdsworth
I am very fortunate to still be actively part of the emergency service and healthcare communities enjoying a career that now spans more than 40 years.
During those years I’ve spent 4½ years in prison … as a medic and corrections officer … held executive leadership positions in several for-profit EMS agencies, volunteer positions in both EMS and Fire agencies and served as the EMS Coordinator at Lawrence & Memorial Hospital where I developed and ran a hospital based, regional ALS service.
This uniquely diverse and lengthy career allows me to bring state-of-the-industry as well as historical perspective to each of my consulting assignments.
The services that we offer are the direct result of providing what our clients identify as their needs:
- EMS system & EMS agency reviews
- Ambulance/Paramedic bid, RFP and contract negotiation
- Regionalization, mergers and/or consolidation assistance
- Billing & collection process and payer mix analysis
- Developing strategic business and marketing plans
- One-on-one executive leadership coaching
Every organization gets stuck, stagnant, set in their ways and for many this trend can be the beginning of the end. Often an unbiased, fresh set of eyes can help you identify opportunities and create powerful action steps that can better position your agency.
I look forward to learning more about your needs and finding a way to help you build for the future. Please schedule a free 30-minute session with me, by using the link below, and let’s see if working together makes sense.
Be safe, be well,
