Why Should You Attend:
Do you know that the number one area of deficiencies in the CMS CoP is regarding restraints? CMS issued a memo summarizing all of the deficiencies against hospitals which is updated quarterly.
This program by expert speaker Sue Dill Calloway, RN, MSN, JD, will discuss the most problematic standards in the restraint section. This program also discusses the proposed changes to restraint published in the Hospital Improvement Act. This will help you assess your preparedness if a CMS surveyor shows up at your hospital tomorrow, and enhance your staff’s understanding of all of the 50 pages of the CMS interpretive guidelines.
This session will also discuss the requirements for an internal log and what must be in the log for patients who die in one or two soft wrist restraints.
