| If Collaboration isn’t on the tip of your staff’s tongue, it should be. Speakers and industry experts Liz Barlow, BSN, RN, CRRN, RAC-CT, DNS-CT and Renee Kinder, MS, CCC-SLP, RAC-C invite your nursing and therapy staff to participate in a virtual, interactive training workshop that will review how to overcome common hurdles that can make interdepartmental collaboration challenging.
With the upcoming proposed reform to the prospective payment system (PPS), aligning resident documentation across multiple disciplines will drive reimbursement more than ever. Promoting collaboration between your facility’s nursing and therapy departments is not enough; each facility must have specific policies, procedures, and effective communication strategies in place to avoid an audit and improve resident-centered care.
Listeners will have three different opportunities during the course of the workshop to ask questions following detailed case studies that highlight an essential aspect of interdepartmental collaboration.
Here's a look at the full webinar agenda:
