Implement a quality improvement program with guidance from the experts.

At LeaderStat, we don’t just identify quality issues and audit survey preparedness, we help implement sustainable improvement solutions. We work with nursing homes to develop and implement ongoing quality improvement plans, including CMS-compliant QAPI programs.

QAPI Training and Consulting

Does your skilled nursing community need assistance to be in compliance with a Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) program?

With the many changes and new requirements that aim to improve the quality of life, care and services in healthcare, a QAPI program is needed.

LeaderStat helps with:

  • Program design and scope
  • Program feedback, data systems and monitoring
  • Systematic identification, reporting, investigation, analysis and prevention of adverse events
  • Staff education and training

LeaderStat has certified QAPI trainers that will share the differences QAPI will bring to your clinical and operational systems and outcomes, helping your organization move forward, provide better care and improve resident satisfaction.

Emergency Preparedness Plan (EPP):

 Long-term care facilities must establish and maintain an emergency preparedness program that complies with all applicable Federal, State and local emergency preparedness requirements. The emergency preparedness requirements ensure adequate planning for both natural and man-made disasters, and coordination with federal, state, tribal, regional and local emergency preparedness systems. The EPP must include, but not be limited to, an emergency plan, policies and procedures, a communication plan, training and testing, and emergency power systems.
 
Creating a disaster management plan can be challenging and overwhelming. LeaderStat consultants can conduct EPP mock surveys and provide tools, resources and help establish a system for your organization should a disaster or emergency occur.
 
 

EMR Implementation & Consulting -
Improve efficiency and patient outcomes with technology.

Electronic medical records increase efficiency, save money and improve patient outcomes. But implementation alone doesn’t ensure that your organization will reap the benefits of an EMR system. Software updates and staff turnover can create a need for additional training and support. Our experienced EMR consultants provide expertise with everything from system selection and implementation to training and ongoing support. Our services include:

  • System vetting and selection
  • Implementation and training (on-site and remote)
  • Ongoing support and refresher training

We also can provide expertise in systems such as PointClickCare, Cerner, AOD, and many others.
