Take the next step in your Quality Indicator Survey (QIS) education and learn how to make the QIS the core of your quality assurance system. Although the QIS was designed for surveyors to conduct the federal survey, the two-stage quality assessment tools that are used in the QIS provide the basis for a comprehensive quality assurance system for nursing homes. This session will detail the importance of the QIS, teaching attendees not only how to conduct assessments using the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) forms and tools, but also how to analyze and interpret the results to determine both systemic and individual quality issues.
