I’ve got another riddle for you

So this woman is here today at work. And she is here to see whether or not we meet national standards as a Home Health Agency. Apparently, several years back, HHA’s were taking advantage of patients and the system and what not. The medical institutions were not being regulated. Now, however, they are. There is a Joint Commission that sets standards for every type of agency you can imagine. Typically, the standard is updated every three years or so. So now, as in right now as I am writing, there is an evaluator in the building as we are trying to be accredited by JHACHO standards before they change on Jan 1. Oh yeah, the evaluations and accreditations cost 50K. Everyone in the building are walking on pins and needles, all have their hair done and their ties straightened. It’s amazing. Knees are knocking and brows are beading. The thing that gets me is that, what’s the reason for the fear if we are doing what we are supposed to be doing?
