DESCRIPTION:\n\nNDHA is an approved provider of continuing education by the North Dakota Board of Examiners for Nursing Home Administrators.\n\n\n\n\nDate: 4/19/22\n9:00 – 11:00 AM Central time\n\n \nRegistration fees:       $175 per NDHA member  |  $225 per non-member\nTarget Audience\nCMO, CNO, Compliance Officer, Emergency Department personnel, Joint Commission Coordinator, Medical Records, Quality Improvement personnel, Risk Manager, Legal Counsel.\nOverview:\nThe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) made significant changes to the hospital conditions of participation (CoPs), including nursing, history and physicals, infection control, QAPI, and orders for restraint and seclusion. While the effective date for the changes to take place was November 29, 2019, Critical Access Hospitals had until end of March 2021 to implement a QAPI program as those requirements were completely rewritten.\nThe new rules require all hospitals to have an antibiotic stewardship program, the core elements of which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revised in November 2019. A large part of the rule included areas that are already a requirement in the hospital CoPs. This session will cover several existing requirements clarified by CMS along with several finalized federal regulations, making this webinar an excellent resource for all hospital employees.\nLearning Objectives:\nAt the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:\n\nRecall that hospitals have requirements in the CMS CoPs on antimicrobial stewardship program.\nDiscuss CMS changes allowing PAs to order restraint and seclusion and do assessments if allowed by the hospital.\nRecite the hospital policies describing which outpatient areas require a registered nurse (RN).\nDescribe the changes for CAH QAPI program.\n\n \nSpeaker:\nLena Browning, MHA, BSN, RNC-NIC, CSHA\nNash Healthcare Consulting\nLena Browning is a nurse leader and accreditation specialist with more than twenty-five years of experience in clinical leadership in acute care settings.
