New SurveyPosted on Thu Nov 03, 2005 at 07:36:08 AM EST
At the Summit 2020 meeting last June leaders in the aging and long-term care field discussed a need for an on-line system to track state survey issues with culture change.

The hard copy resources include the following:

The hard copy resources include the following:
1. A brief article by Carmen Bowman in Vol. 3 of Action Pact's magazine Culture Change Now:
There are 19 quality-of-life requirements within the federal "State Operations Manual for Long Term Care." Four stand out with regard to the physical design of households and its effect on quality of life.
2. The Institute for Caregiver Education's F-Tag Crosswalk to Culture Change:
This volume of the Crosswalk Series examines each of the selected F-Tags, identifies a link between a primary Culture Change Principle and the regulatory language, and weaves an action-based connection between Culture Change Values and Guidance to surveyors for each regulation. F-Tags are presented in a standardized format that is easy to understand by all levels of nursing home team members, and serves as a valuable tool for achieving meaningful in-service education as well as regulatory compliance.
