What You’ll Learn

Improving quality measures improves residents’ quality of care and may result in lower mortality rates and fewer hospital readmissions. Not to mention, QMs also play a big part in a facility’s 5-Star ratings. Attend this session to learn how a team of pros improved a facility’s quality measure rating from a 1 star to a 4 star and ultimately improved the quality of care for the residents that live there.

Attendees of this seminar will learn how to:

1) Identify quality initiatives that affect Skilled Nursing Facilities
2) Discuss the prioritization of quality measures within a facility
3) Learn five strategies to improve quality measures and the 5-star QM rating
4) Expected and unexpected benefits of quality measure improvements
