We’ve had to look at whether we need day programming or respite care for families to support them. … I think we’re looking more and more at the support services, to make sure gaps are filled and that needs are met.

What are some examples of new therapies being used? We just got a brand-new piece of equipment that will help us with concussion. It’s kind of like a giant TV screen that’s interactive. We have bicycles that have electrodes attached that help move the muscles for an individual. One of the things we’re looking at in the future is driving simulation. We do have THIS TEAM HERE IS ABOVE AND BEYOND @businessrecord | Twitter: businessrecord.com a vehicle here that is more to help a person learn how to get in and out of a vehicle, but we would like to see driving simulation as a part of that. WHAT I COULD HAVE HOPED FOR — Probably our biggest addition is our healing gardens. We have several acres of garden that will target different sensory THEY LIVE THE MISSION; THEY LIVE needs. For instance, it’s built so that from their wheelchair they can look up and enjoy the garden and not just see the sky. There FOR WHAT THEY’RE DOING. is also a playground to help parents practice playing with their children. We have different obstacle courses built into the garden so that individuals can practice real-life challenges.

What are the biggest challenges your organization faces as a nonprofit? We’ve followed the changes in Medicaid very closely. We have a facility in Glenwood that’s 100 percent Medicaid. We’re a good portion Medicaid here also. If Medicaid destabilizes, that’s always a worry I have. We’ve been blessed so far that the out- sourcing of Medicaid has gone OK. We obviously aren’t making a ton of profit off of the Medicaid/Medicare population, but it’s the niche that we have. … It’s definitely one of our top concerns. We’re doing OK. We’ve been blessed with a strong foundation and we get a lot of community support, not necessarily in dollars but in volunteers and political support.

What changes are on the horizon in the next year or two? I think we will see a very large expansion of our outpatient program; we have just completely outgrown where we’ve gone so far. That’s probably No. 1 on our horizon. For our kind of therapy, a lot of it is large gym space — we need room to move. We typically function in a trans-disciplinary team, so it’s not unusual to see two therapists with one individual as we target certain functions. We’ve come up with a two-year and five- year plan of about 1,000 to 2,000 square feet each. And you’ll see more intentional therapies for Parkinson’s and stroke. We’ll probably move our admin team and look at giving space to make nice contiguous gym space.

What do you enjoy doing as hobbies? I do volunteer work in animal rescue; I have a strong pas- sion for that. I have two Great Danes that keep me busy. I paint; I like acrylics and oils and I do mostly landscapes. That’s been my form of meditation — it just allows you to breathe a bit and sit back. n

Custom software development: You can build about any feature. But should you?

A: The short answer: Assume it’s possible. When it comes to custom software, just about anything you dream up can be developed. Q: I have a problem The real question, however, is should it be developed. The most unique, amazing system or functionality isn’t worth building INDUSTRY AND BUSINESS OF ASSOCIATION IOWA or opportunity in my if it doesn’t bring value to you or your customers. When you’re analyzing a business that I think new idea, focus on: • The value it would bring if it were built. requires the development • The cost of not building it. of proprietary software. Another obvious factor to consider is the required investment. While just about any feature can be built, costs vary greatly based on what needs How do I know if what I to be developed. By first and foremost understanding the value the software Kelly Kimmich want is even possible? will bring, you’ll be able to more easily evaluate the level of investment that makes sense. Business Strategist, Far Reach If the value of building out your idea matches or exceeds the costs, [email protected] great! You can, and probably should, build it. But if the cost far exceeds the likely value, you can build it, but maybe you shouldn’t. So instead of focusing on whether software can be built, focus on whether it should be built.

Are you finding enough qualified people to work @businessrecord | Twitter: businessrecord.com as interpreters? That’s always an issue, finding enough qualified folks, because we’re constantly keeping our [current interpreters] overbooked. Fortunately we’re always able to find enough multilingual staff. And we offer our own training and medical/legal interpreting certification. … DMACC has an amazing interpretation and translation program, with tracks in health care, legal and human resources. They funnel a lot of their graduates our way.

How many languages do your interpreters col- lectively handle? In Central Iowa we interpret between 50 and 60 languages — it’s constantly changing — and overall we have about 70 languages nationwide. And that’s not even half the languages in the world. We’ve got a lot of growth to do. One of our gals from West Africa, she speaks six languages, and her calendar is just out of control. And it’s not just from English to a target language. We have some doctors who are operating via telemed services.
