| This Week in Nursing Workplace safety and nurse surveillance capacity can boost quality ratings and lower pressure ulcer rates, Press Ganey analysis finds.

Carol Ebert shares some tips for overworked nurses!
Solutions Spotlight The final HCPro Accreditation Specialist Boot Camp of the year is coming up fast. Sign up now for your last chance to learn from instructor Jean S. Clark, RHIA, CSHA, who has more than 30 years of real-world experience and expertise in regulatory and accreditation compliance. The final boot camp will be December 12-14 in Orlando, Fla.

- Identifying organizational weaknesses to improve survey results

- Coordinating site visits
- Identifying future trends likely to affect organizational compliance
- Responding to survey results, findings, and Requirements for Improvement
The Accreditation Specialist Boot Camps provide in-depth explanations of CMS and Joint Commission requirements, and briefly cover HFAP and DNV standards if students are accredited by those bodies. Instructors focus on teaching participants how to integrate continuous survey readiness into daily operations. Plus, you will leave with an entire catalogue of tools, templates, and resources that you can use at your organization.
Unique features of this Boot Camp include:
