Nursing Facility Mandatory Minimum Staffing Rule – Expanded Facility Assessment – Important New Resource

In the last edition of CareConnection we reported that CMS has published its guidance on the expanded facility assessment.  The expanded facility assessment requirement takes effect on August 8, 2024.  We enclosed initial additional guidance from our national affiliate, AHCA/NCAL, and advised that additional guidance and resources would be forthcoming.

The second installment of those resources is an important one.  It is a helpful checklist that member facilities can use to assure compliance once implementation commences on August 8thFacility Assessment Checklist

We hope you find these resources helpful. Questions?  Please do not hesitate to contact Rick Abrams, rick@whcawical.org or 516-241-2879 (cellular/text anytime)
