WEBINAR DETAILS
An effective IDG fosters patient-centered care by
involving a team of professionals who collaborate to meet the medical,
psychosocial, emotional, and spiritual needs of hospice patients and their
families. This collaborative approach ensures a comprehensive, holistic plan of
care is developed and implemented.
The plan of care continues to be a key area of
focus and challenge for agencies with surveys and financial audits. This
presentation will explain how to conduct an effective IDG that impacts the
individualized patient plan of care. It will review key IDG elements, including
care planning, team communication, patient documentation, continuous
assessment, coordination of care, and scope of services. The recommended best
practices to conduct an effective IDG will be outlined to provide a structured,
scheduled, and formatted IDG that meets the hospice requirements, including
supporting patient eligibility. If your agency has struggled with POC survey or
ADR challenges, and/or IDG team participation challenges, this will be an
excellent presentation to attend.
THIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:
- Hospice
- Palliative Care
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session
is best suited for hospice clinical leadership, including medical directors and
hospice physicians, NPs, DOPCSs, RN case managers, QA staff, hospice admission
