actnet 8 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Follow this link to view the New Regulations Surveyor Guides.https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Provider-Enrollment-and-Certification/GuidanceforLawsAndRegulations/Nursing-Homes.htmlView the New Survey ProcessNew Long-term Care Survey Process – Slide Deck and Speaker Notes [PPTX, 8MB] This PowerPoint file will walk you thru the new Survey Process from the Surveyors Point of View. You will see each step they take as they enter your facility. Some of the process will change for the facility, including Activities. The slide show will show the old way vs the new way so that you will know what to expect.Bottom Line is to keep the needs and the interests of the residents met, make sure you careplanning is Person-Centered, (designed around the individual). Keep your facility population assessments current . The Link at the top of the page has several Documents to download, especially interesting is the Ftag CrossWalk . a comparison of the old Ftags to the new. Not all relate to Activities, but your department can be cited in conjunction with other departments as we all play a part in every residents care. f679-f680 look at f636 also.. More to come .... stay tuned thanks, Pennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
