Quotes:
“I find that office after office the policies are outdated...in some cases they don't even know where the manual is”
“The first thing we learned is that if it's not written down, it didn't happen so if your policies and procedures are not written down...they are not existent”

“The policies and procedures need to be updated on an annual basis”
“If we can just build on it little by little each year”
