About this book
Practical and compassionate approaches to providing quality care and safeguarding quality of life
The second edition of Managing the Long-Term Care Facility: Practical Approaches to Providing Quality Care updates the first edition's discussion of the operational requirements necessary to manage a skilled nursing facility. This book presents sensitive and empathic regulatory compliant methods for the delivery of care that fosters an empowering environment for all stakeholders. Additional new information includes aging in place, trauma-informed care, ethical dilemmas and collaborative decision-making, workforce culture, and surveys, enforcement actions, and appeals. The pedagogical tools include chapter summaries with quiz questions and case studies. Instructors also have access to PowerPoint slides and test banks.
This book is an excellent resource for students and individuals interested in working in long-term care and other health care industries. The updated best practices for clinical and non-clinical roles within the facility and material on resident advocacy and other important topics provide valuable information for the reader. Working professionals can benefit from the emphasis placed on practical approaches to facilitate person-centered and whole person care and a facility's sustainability.
