Lon Woodbury has posted an interesting piece titled “Best Practices vs. Innovation” As Woodbury observes:
In my view, small owner-operated independent private programs are the laboratory of innovation. Not hampered by a multitude of state or corporation imposed guidelines, the operator is free to draw upon professional knowledge and mix this with his/her own creativity and experience. The results will speak for themselves whether the operator is on to something or not. As a result, some of these “experiments” will become the “Best Practices” of the future.
