Nursing Home Survey

If you work in or manage a nursing home, you know that there is
probably no other event in the year that generates more anxiety than
the annual certification survey. Regardless of how well your staff
cares for your patients and residents, if the survey team finds a
significant problem, it can result in serious deficiencies. It's
kind of like going through a speed trap-even the best driver can get
a ticket if his or her guard is down and a trooper catches them
speeding. These deficiencies can result in sanctions and also can
diminish the reputation of the organization. As a director of nursing,
I know what it is like to have to keep your facility in a constant
state of survey readiness. That's why I wrote a monograph "Care Plan
Strategies for Survey Success". It contains strategies I have learned
in my years working with facilities, and they have been field tested.
It is available on line and you don't have to wait for it to arrive
in the mail. For more information, go to

and good luck on survey!
