Clarity before action.
StrataCare conducts low-burden, observational audits that help executive leadership determine whether structural operational risk is present — or whether validated inaction is the correct decision.This is a leadership-facing audit.
Not a program.
Not consulting.
What We Do
We conduct Tier I observational audits that examine how real work is actually performed.We observe:
• physical and operational environments
• workflow structure and timing
• access and control surfaces
• role demands and exposure
• decision-density windowsThe work is:
• observational
• upstream-focused
• non-clinical
• low burden to operations
• leadership-facingThe goal is not to introduce initiatives.
The goal is to improve information quality before decisions are made.
Why This Exists
Many initiatives begin after capital has already been deployed — through programs, policies, or operational changes — without clarity about whether action was necessary.StrataCare helps leaders:
• avoid assumption-based spending
• distinguish structural constraints from perceived ones
• confirm when systems are functioning as intended
• document when restraint is the responsible decisionSometimes alignment itself is the outcome.
How This Is Different
Most firms sell solutions downstream.StrataCare audits upstream.We do not rely on:
• surveys
• interviews
• engagement metrics
• participation dataWe observe how the system actually functions during normal operations.No disruption.
No staff burden.
No initiative.
What This Is Not
StrataCare does not provide:
• wellness programs
• consulting roadmaps
• staff training
• coaching
• surveys or engagement initiatives
• prescriptive recommendationsThe audit stands alone.
What Leaders Receive
A concise, audit-style report that:
• documents observed operating conditions
• identifies structural signals if present
• detects compensation behavior when it exists
• produces a binary leadership decisionYES — Material Risk
or
NO — Validated InactionLeadership retains full discretion over how — or whether — to act.

What This Work Is
StrataCare conducts low-burden, observational audits focused on structural operating risk.The work examines how:
• environment
• workflow design
• access surfaces
• role demands
• timing and sequencing
interact during real work conditions.It is:
• observational
• structural
• upstream-focused
• non-clinical
• leadership-facingThe purpose is to provide clarity — not to prescribe solutions.
What This Work Is Not
This work is not:
• a wellness program
• individual coaching or counseling
• staff education or training
• surveys or engagement initiatives
• a consulting or implementation serviceThe audit does not require staff participation.
It does not interrupt workflow.
Why Observation Matters
This work does not rely on:
• perception
• memory
• self-report
• buy-inIt looks at how the system actually functions during normal operations.If the observed picture does not reflect reality, the audit does not hold.
That discipline is intentional.
How Leaders Use the Findings
Organizations use the audit to:
• determine whether action is necessary
• avoid unnecessary initiatives or spend
• confirm alignment
• decide to monitor rather than interveneIn many cases, alignment itself is the outcome.
Liability & Use of Findings
Findings are observational only.The audit does not diagnose, prescribe, or recommend actions.
Leadership may choose to act, monitor, or take no action at all.Ownership of findings remains with the organization.
Common Questions
How accurate are the findings?
They reflect real conditions observed during normal operations. If the picture is inaccurate, the audit does not hold — by design.
Does this create liability?
No. The audit is non-clinical and observational.
Is staff involvement required?
No. The audit is leadership-facing.
What happens after the audit?
Nothing is required. Leaders decide how or whether to proceed.
