Everyone knows what restorative nursing is, but without extensive training, are you sure your staff is doing it properly?

Restorative nursing is one of the biggest concerns for long-term care nurses and their administrators. Integral to resident care, reimbursement, and compliance, restorative nursing programs can significantly impact. Plus, you will need consistent compliance with:

Quality Indicators and Quality Measures
F-Tags #309 (highest practical quality of life) and #297 (development of a comprehensive care plan)
Accidents and supervision, F-Tags #323 and #324, which are soon to become a major focus of CMS
Residents’ Medicare Resource Utilization Group (RUG)

Restorative Nursing Made Easy is a comprehensive new resource that not only explains restorative care from a clinical, reimbursement, and regulatory standpoint, but also provides all the tools necessary to help establish or strengthen your restorative care program.

With this resource, you'll save time while ensuring quality, regulatory compliant care. Written by industry expert Kate Brewer, PT, MBA, GCS, Restorative Nursing Made Easy includes over 10 basic restorative nursing programs which detail:

who needs to run the program, what activities should be included, and how to document the program properly to ensure accurate reimbursement
explanations of program, samples care plans and therapy recommendations that will save your staff time
sample forms and inservices so you can ensure compliance
easy-to implement suggestions and tips that will help you get the most quality compliant care from your staff

You’re not the only one focusing on your restorative nursing program. With the forthcoming accidents and supervision F-Tag revisions, facilities are taking a close look at their restorative program to ensure it meets CMS’ requirements. From a reimbursement perspective, more state Medicaid programs are becoming case mix, which means that facilities offering restorative programs will receive more money.

Use Restorative Nursing Made Easy to establish an interdisciplinary restorative nursing program based on resident-centered care, or to strengthen your current program. With this guide your staff will also benefit from an understanding of how restorative nursing affects QIs, QMs, the MDS, and, ultimately, reimbursement.
