Comprehensive assessment is essential to the effective management of our patients in hospice and palliative care. Likewise, documentation of that assessment and of our interventions can promote better IDT care, demonstrate our adherence to COPs/Comprehensive Assessment Quality Measures/Accreditation Standards, as well provide evidence to reviewers of the appropriateness for hospice care and/or the level of service provided. Join us for this Webinar as
we review these essential components of care and provide tips for improving our overall clinical assessment and documentation.
ObjectivesAt the completion of this program, participants will be able to:
• Describe the essential components of a comprehensive clinical assessment
