Improving the Quality of Care in Nursing Homes pdf
Description

The landmark Nursing Home Care Reform Act of 1987 mandated basic standards of care to ensure the physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of residents. Yet little has changed since it was enacted. High-quality facilities continue to provide good care, while poorly operated ones remain substandard. This volume offers an evidence-based framework for improving care in nursing homes.Taking a broad perspective, the authors review the history, development, and current state of care in nursing homes. After defining the concept of "quality" in the home, they assess an array of qualitative and quantitative statistical data to identify inconsistencies found among U.S. facilities. Individual chapters focus on varied aspects of care and the ways in which it is measured, including a thorough review of such key mechanisms as the Online Survey, Certification, and Reporting (OSCAR) data network and the Structure-Process-Outcome (SPO) model. The book also examines specific factors related to measu Download Improving the Quality of Care in Nursing Homes for free via rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared, dropBox, uploading, fileserve

Infection Control for Nursing Homes pdf
Description

When it comes to infection control, compliance is difficult, but the stakes are high. It's one of the biggest challenges your facility faces: Under F-Tag #441, nursing homes must "establish and maintain an infection control program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of disease and infection." With residents frail and at a greater risk for infections such as MSRA, c. difficile, urinary tract infections (UTI), and, according to the Centers for Disease Control, pandemic flu virus, an effective infection control program is crucial--yet nursing homes often lack the resources to identify and control infection. Introducing Infection Control for Nursing Homes: A Guide to Government Standards--the guidance, policies, and staff training tools your facility needs to prevent the spread of infection and avoid one of the top survey deficiencies in the industry.

Old Age in a New Age pdf
Description

On investigative visits to nursing homes across the nation, Beth Baker has witnessed profound changes. Culture change leaders are tearing up everything -- the floor plans, the flow charts, the schedules, the lousy menus, the attitudes, the rules -- and starting from scratch. They are creating extraordinary places where people live in dignity and greet the day with contentment, assisted by employees who feel valued and appreciated. Perhaps most surprising, these homes prove that a high quality of life does not have to cost more. Some of the best homes in the nation serve primarily low-income people who are on Medicaid. In this new book, Baker tell the story of a better way to live in old age. Although each home is different, they share common values: respecting individual choices; empowering staff; fostering a strong community of elders, staff, family members, and volunteers; redesigning buildings from a hospital model to a home (where pets and children are part of everyday life); an Download Old Age in a New Age for free via rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared, dropBox, uploading, fileserve
